Clinical Overview
Opalescence™ Boost™ PF 40% is a chemically activated, in‑office whitening gel with 40 % hydrogen peroxide, enhanced with potassium nitrate and fluoride (PF formula) to minimize sensitivity and support enamel integrity. Delivered via a double‑syringe system, the gel is activated chairside immediately before application, eliminating the need for heat or light activation. Ideal for powerful single-session whitening in approximately one hour.
