Disclosing damaging to cermaic?

#1 Post by alamaya »

Hi all,

Been reading the posts on here about disclosing and interesting in trying them but i have cermaics on top and worried they would actually stain the brackets.

Anyone know anything about this?

Thanks

I asked my ortho about the disclosing tablets last week and they gave me some (Gum Red Cote). I have ceramics (Radiance). I tried one the other night and all the red disappeared after brushing 2 or 3 times. My tongue and lips were still a little red after finishing but it was all normal by the next day. I would recommend using it at night for this reason. I think the tablets are really worth the extra effort personally.
Clear uppers and lowers installed.
Treatment Time Expected: 12-18 months
