STEP 1. Apply an even dose of the whitening gel all around the inside of the dental tray. (The inside of the tray that will go onto your front of your teeth.)

STEP 2. Wear the dental tray for 30 mins per application unless of course you are using our HappySmile 35% (Ultra-High strength) formula and that will be reduced down to ONLY 10 mins. (This dental procedure is done for 10 to 14 days if it is for a new full course of treatment.)

STEP 3. When you have finished wearing your dental trays then simply take them out of your mouth and gently remove the gel from your teeth using a soft tooth brush with water. You also want to use the soft tooth brush to gently clean your dental trays to remove the gel under a cold water tap and then you simply dry off your trays with a clean tissue.

Please ensure you always use a soft toothbrush during the professional tooth whitening procedure.

After this tooth whitening procedure you must only drink water or milk and not to consume any food or smoke this is because the dental enamel is still open and would re-stain.

When you follow these (3) easy steps you will soon restore your teeth back to your natural whiteness!

You have 1 minute for this step, please use the whole time given.

Looking in a mirror, open your mouth as wide as you can and using both hands inset the impression tray in your mouth.

Ensure teeth are aligned in the middle of the putty.

Step 3 and Step 4 to be completed within 25 seconds.

TIP – Ensure there is plenty of putty towards the front edges of the tray in order to capture both your teeth and gums – then bite as deep as you can.

STEP 4

Firmly pushing the tray upwards make sure you lift your top lip up and out of the way whilst pushing the tray straight up into your teeth. Do this until your teeth hit the bottom of the tray and hold in position with thumbs for 4 minutes, do not speak.

HappySmile trays are perfect for an instant dental bleaching tray that can be made at home. Please make a note of the web link on how to make them below. We supply the original HappySmile trays that are known for the highest quality. Please feel free to also click the link to the video demo below. You can also purchase a set of these whilst you are waiting to have your custom fit trays made by our dental lab. You will not find a better instant dental tray as these were developed to be used with dental peroxide.

Step 2 Boil the water in a kettle and pour 300 ml into a large bowl or cup. Then leave to cool for a full five minutes or until the water reaches 70 degrees centigrade, which is around 160 degrees farenheit. But do be careful as boiling water can scald and is very hot. Try not to get the water too hot !

Step 3 Secure the white thin tray inside the coloured tray and whilst still holding the handle, submerge the combined trays into the water try to make sure the whole mouthpiece is submerged up to the handle. Then shake the trays to remove any air bubbles that may be present.

Step 4 - Slowly wave the mouth trays in the water until the handle becomes soft and flexible. You will notice a slight loss of shape as they collapse.

Step 5 Remove the trays from the water after about a minute and test for flexibility. The material should be soft enough to mould against your teeth. Use a finger to check. If not, resubmerge the trays in the water until flexible enough.

Step 6 Holding by the handle, insert the trays into your mouth making sure that your teeth are midway between the walls of the white tray.

Using your fingers, form the tray by pressing firmly against your front teeth first and then up towards your gums. Remove your fingers and try to suck the water out of the tray, while it is still in your mouth. This will make it conform to your teeth better. As the dental tray cools it will tighten over your teeth. At this stage you should bite lightly on the tray and loosen it off once without completely removing it.

Step 7 - Once the dental mouth tray has cooled in your mouth, which takes about 3 minutes simply remove the dental trays. Separate the white tray from the coloured tray. The white contoured tray is the custom fitting dental tray that will be used for home teeth whitening.

Step 8 If the mouthpieces extend too far over your gums it can be uncomfortable. Simply cut off any excess material with sharp scissors. Smooth over any sharp edges by reheating in warm water and applying finger pressure. Remember that your mouthpieces needs only to cover your front eight or so teeth as these are usually the only ones that only need whitened. Snipping off the back of the section of the mouthpiece may make it more comforable to wear.

Please remember you are never alone as HappySmile offer you FREE HELP and ADVICE. You simply send in a support ticket if you have any questions?

Do not rush treatment. Do not overload the trays with the gel. Keep the dental gel stored in the fridge or cool place. Do not use any type of mouth wash during the course of treatment. If you get any gel onto the gums during treatment then simply remove it with a wet cotton bud. Sometimes you will find that during tooth whitening it can be patchy where part of the enamel is not as white as the other part and this is normal and will even out as you do a full course of treatment. Do remember that the professional dental bleaching effect does not last for ever so you will need to apply more applications every 3 months or when needed. We supply smaller packs for top up treatments. Lower strength gels take longer to whiten teeth than stronger strength gels. Higher strength gels "speed" up the procedure. Only ever use HappySmile Gels for 30 mins max as they are advanced dental whitening gels that do not need long weartimes.
