One
of the things my patients comment on the most is how much my smile brightens
their day, so when Smile Brilliant contacted me with the opportunity to brighten my smile AND have a free giveaway for my readers, I just couldn’t pass up the opportunity!
Now, I’ll be honest and say, up until this point, I never used a tooth whitening product in my life. Yep, that’s right, only good ole Colgate toothpaste for me! So, when Smile Brilliant first contacted me, I was not only a bit skeptical, but didn’t think their product would benefit me. So glad I took a chance, because their product is awesome!
Smile Brilliant works by creating custom
fitted trays that wrap around your teeth, so it
does involve a few steps. The first thing that must be done when you receive
the product is creating a mold of your teeth using putty that is provided. The
process is super simple and involves mushing putty together, putting it in a
tray, and then pressing in your teeth until the mold hardens. Afterwards, you
get a nice blue impression of your teeth, as seen above.
Once the impression of your teeth has
been made, you complete a consent form and mail that in along with your
impressions. About a week later, the company sends you back trays that fits
snugly around your teeth. They kind of reminded me of the Invisalign braces
that you see on television.
Now for the fun part! Once I received
my custom fitted trays, it was time to try out the product. Smile Brilliant is
extremely easy to use and only requires what you see above. I was told that
some people experience
sensitivity, so I placed Vaseline on my gums, and
injected the whitening agent into the trays. I then kept the product on for 45
minutes (45 minutes to three hours is suggested), brushed my teeth, and then
put the trays back on my teeth with the desensitizing agent for 15 minutes.
This was done at night so that I wouldn’t eat after the whitening process was
complete.

| Look closely, my teeth are in whitening trays |
One thing that I really liked about the whitening process was how much it didn’t interfere with my daily activities. Once the trays were in my mouth, they were practically invisible, and outside of having a small lisp, I could converse easily. In the picture above, if you look really closely, you’ll see that I have both trays in place and yet, my smile is still awesome!
If I had to come up with one con
about the product, it would be the demineralization that is easily seen right after
whitening. If you look at the above picture, you can see splotchy areas and
small areas that are way whiter than other parts of my teeth. Fortunately, when
I woke up in the morning, the color in my teeth was even again. It did freak me
out at first, so just want to make sure I throw it out there.

| Crazy results after only 2 uses! |
Overall, I was super satisfied with my results. I always thought my teeth were white, but this product took them to another level. I also enjoyed the fact that my teeth didn’t look too white and maintained a natural whiteness after the process. Above are my before and after photos from just two sessions. I was told seven sessions would give the best results, but you can definitely see a difference above even with limited use. The top photos are my “before” shots and the bottom photos are my “after” shots.
