14 I I user report _ Whitening implants2_2012 sion, if sensitivity is observed, it is possible to reduce the power. The lamp is totally silent, which allows the patient full relax- ation, listening to music for example. Once the three sessions are completed, the teeth are rinsed, and the whole isola- tion system taken off. The new shade is appreciated. Patients are then given their take-home kit, MeToo Perfect, to start the day after the chairside procedure, for three days, in order to stabilise the results. A short maintenance procedure, say three-six day take-home whitening ev- ery year, along with a good oral hygiene regime and regular scaling procedures, should enable patients to maintain the level of whiteness they desire. _Clinical observations – Clinical cases All of the patients pictured received all three 15-minute sessions. None of them suffered peroperative sensitivity, which allowed me to do all sessions on ‘full power’. The dental shades were evaluated with Vita Classical and Vita Bleachedguide 3D-Master when bleached shades were reached. _Conclusions Patients consulting for teeth whiten- ing have a cosmetic aim; this implicates that practitioners should offer a painless whitening technique that provides good results and comfort during the proce- dure. The MeToo Deluxe whitening sys- tem has given us so far very encouraging results. Patients were very satisfied with their new shades, and found the chair- side procedure relaxing. The fact that the lamp is completely silent and the absence of peroperative sensitivity seem to be es- sential. Fig 6 a & b_MeToo! Retractor. Fig 7 a & b_ NeoDam before and after polymerisation.
