To Investigate the Stain Removal Efficacy of Supersmile Whitening Gum

Purpose:

The demonstrate the removal of food-induced dental stains.

50 patients consumed a chromogenic “meal” consisting of:

4 ounces of red grape juice (simulating red wine)
3 ounces of blueberry pie
4-6 ounces of coffee or tea

Patients then chewed 2 pieces of Supersmile Gum for 10 minutes.

Results

After the use of Supersmile Professional Whitening Gum, the test chewing gum, the mean shade of the anterior teeth was calculated to be almost 3 Vita tabs whiter than the coloration immediately after eating. This level of de-staining, representing a major de-coloration of tooth shade, is statistically significant (blue shading). It is also readily evident to the casual observer.

Conclusions

From this study, it can be concluded that Supersmile Professional Whitening Gum removes food induced stains from dental surfaces. Supersmile Professional Whitening Gum’s very convenient application modality, its rapid de-coloration activity, and its significant results in dental destaining make it a very practical and portable tool for oral hygiene and aesthetic maintenance.
