Opalescence Endo Kit, Non-Vital Endo Bleaching System

Clinical Overview

Opalescence™ Endo is a 35% hydrogen peroxide gel specifically formulated for internal whitening of non‑vital, endodontically treated teeth using the “walking bleach” technique. Its high-viscosity, syringe-delivered formula allows precise placement into the pulp chamber and safe temporary sealing for a treatment duration of 1–5 days.

Key Benefits

• High-concentration peroxide: 35% hydrogen peroxide provides powerful internal whitening with minimal structural removal.
• Syringe delivery: Enables clean, accurate placement—avoids mess and variability inherent to self-mixed pastes.
• Viscous gel consistency: Allows effective coronal sealing with temporary cement and controlled internal bleaching.
• Standardized performance: Consistent concentration and predictable results, often within a single 1–5 day cycle.
• Minimally invasive: Conserves natural tooth structure—avoids full-coverage restorations for internal discoloration.
• Certified gluten‑free & kosher: Suitable for sensitive patient groups.

Kit Contents

• 2 × 1.2 mL syringes of Opalescence™ Endo 35% hydrogen peroxide gel (~1.45 g each)
• 20 × Black Mini™ tips for precise intra‑chamber delivery

Treatment Duration (Walking Bleach Protocol)

• Leave gel sealed in pulp chamber for between 1 and 5 days before evaluation.
• Results typically visible after a single application; repeat only if necessary.

Indications

• Internal bleaching of discolored, non‑vital teeth (e.g. trauma, necrotic pulp, endodontic staining)
• For use only when pulp chamber is sealed above the alveolar crest with a glass ionomer barrier to prevent peroxide leakage.

Instructions for Use

1. Remove all root canal filling and restoration material from the pulp chamber and at least 2 mm below the CEJ.
2. Place a 2 mm-thick layer of conventional or resin-modified glass ionomer at the level of the CEJ to seal the canal from bleaching gel.
3. Attach Black Mini™ tip; dispense Opalescence Endo gel into pulp chamber ensuring complete coverage without overfill.
4. Remove excess gel with wet cotton swab before the temporary cement sets. Seal access with a suitable temporary restoration.
5. Advise patient return in 1–5 days for shade assessment and gel removal. Replace as needed until desired shade achieved.
6. Once desired shade achieved, rinse chamber thoroughly, remove all gel, and restore permanently. Allow 7–10 days if following with adhesive restorations.

Summary

The Opalescence™ Endo Kit (Ref. 1270) delivers a refined, clinician-controlled internal whitening system using 35% hydrogen peroxide in a syringe format designed for the “walking bleach” technique. Offering clean application, predictable results within 1‑5 days, and conservative treatment of discolored non‑vital teeth, it provides a minimally invasive alternative to full‑coverage restorations.
