1. Brush and Rinse Your Teeth
Remove food particles to ensure gel works evenly.
Use a tissue or clean cloth to lightly dry your teeth. Whitening gel sticks better on dry teeth and prevents dilution from saliva.

3. Apply a Small Amount of Gel Into the Tray
Place a thin line of whitening gel inside the front section of the whitening tray. A pea-sized amount per tooth area is usually enough.
Gently press the tray onto your teeth and wipe off any excess gel that touches your gums (to avoid irritation).
6. Remove the Tray and Rinse Well
After the whitening time is completed:
-
Remove the tray
-
Rinse your mouth thoroughly
-
Brush off any remaining gel gently
Avoid colored or acidic drinks for the next 30–60 minutes.
