SDI Pola Office Bleaching Kit

Direction to Use

INSTRUCTIONS FOR VITAL TOOTH WHITENING

1. Determine and record pre-operative shade.

2. Clean teeth with ONLY a flour-based pumice

3. Place cheek retractors and then cover exposed lip surface with petroleum gel

4. Dry teeth and apply Gingival Barrier to both arches, slightly overlapping enamel and interproximal spaces

5. Light cure in a fanning motion for 10-20 seconds until Gingival Barrier is cured

6. Open powder pot. Take one Pola Office syringe, firmly attach a tip, and carefully pull back the plunger to release pressure

7. Carefully extrude contents of the syringe into the pot

8. Immediately mix using a brush applicator until the gel is homogeneous

9. Apply a thick layer of gel to all teeth undergoing treatment

10. Leave the gel on for 8 minutes (Optional: a curing light may be used at this stage, please refer to light manufacturer’s recommendations)

11. Suction off using a surgical aspirator tip

12. Complete Steps 9-11 three times (optional 4 times).

Note: One-pot should only be used for 2 applications or within 20 minutes of mixing

13. After the last application, suction all the gel off, then wash and apply suction

14. Remove Gingival Barrier by lifting it from one end.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR NON-VITAL TOOTH WHITENING:

1. Determine and record pre-operative shade.

2. Isolate tooth/teeth undergoing whitening using a rubber dam. Ensure the dam fits tightly at the cervical margin.

Note: If a rubber dam is not used, cover approximately half of the adjacent vital teeth with a 3-4mm thick layer of Gingival Barrier to insulate from heat discomfort of the curing light. This is done when one tooth is being whitened non-vitally

3. Open lingual access to the pulp chamber and remove all-composite, base material, and gutta-percha 2-3 mm apical to the CE junction. Place a glass ionomer/zinc phosphate base, at least 1 mm thick to ensure a barrier between the “sealed” root canal and whitening gel

4. Place and light cure a thick layer of Gingival Barrier at the gingiva region of the isolated tooth

5. Mix the Pola Office gel as instructed in steps 6-8 of the vital tooth bleaching instructions

6. Place the Pola Office gel into the opened pulp chamber and onto the labial surface

7. Leave the gel on/in for 8 min (Optional: curing light may be used at this stage, please refer to light manufactures recommendations)

NOTE: If using a curing light and treating inner and outer surfaces, 2 curing lights can be used (one on each side of the tooth) to activate Pola Office

8. Suction off the gel

9. Repeat steps 6-8 until desired shade is achieved.

Note: One-pot should only be used for 2 applications or within 20 minutes of mixing

10. After the last application, suction and wash the gel off.

11. Remove Gingival Barrier and re-seal tooth with appropriate restorative

12. Record the final shade.
