Follow your dentist’s gel instructions
01
Using your trays
- Only use the gel your dentist prescribed, for the time they advised.
- Wipe away any gel that squeezes out with a clean finger or soft brush.
- Rinse the trays and your mouth thoroughly after each session.
- Don’t overfill — a small bead of gel per tooth is plenty.
- ! Sensitive teeth or sore gums? Take a night off and speak to your dentist.
02
Caring for the trays
- Brush gently with cold water and a soft toothbrush after every use — remove all gel.
- Store them dry, in the box provided, away from heat and sunlight.
- Gel left to dry inside the tray dehydrates the plastic and makes it brittle — it will crack. Always clean it out.
- Don’t use hot water or toothpaste; keep spare gel cool if advised.
