Product Features

BEYOND Polus Whitening Accelerator with BEYOND Treatment Kits was rated excellent for ease of use of the light and gel, completeness of the kit, and time of procedure. Consultants reported better than average whitening. BEYOND Polus Whitening Accelerator light is on a sturdy wheeled base and includes some features not found in any other whitening light. The three output settings helped tailor the treatment to the patient based on anticipated level of sensitivity. The articulation of the light head made it easy to position over the patients’ teeth. The BEYOND Treatment Kits were reported to be the most complete kits consultants had encountered – all accessories required for the appointment were included. Most of the patients reported that they did not experience discomfort during the whitening process. Of those patients who did experience some discomfort, they rated it moderate. Average whitening was three to seven shades on the Vita guide with all of the patients reporting that their teeth were whiter. Sixty-seven percent of consultants reported BEYOND Polus Whitening Accelerator with BEYOND Treatment Kits was better than their current in-office tooth whitening system, whereas 33% reported it was equivalent. All consultants would switch to BEYOND Polus Whitening Accelerator with BEYOND Treatment Kits and recommend it to their colleagues.

Clinical Tips

  • Keep BEYOND II Advanced Formula Whitening Gel refrigerated.
  • Be sure to use the Face Protection Cloths to protect the lips from the light.
  • Give the remote call button to the patient to call for assistance during the procedure.
