Where's the patient going to get this information from? They're going to get it from the hairdresser. They're going to get it from high smile on the internet. They're gonna get it from their best friends. They're going to look for this information. There's no doubt about that. You don't even need to be in the dental field to understand that the color of teeth is the most important thing... Jaz's Introduction: Hello, Protruserati. This is Jaz Gulati, and welcome to Episode 58 of the Protrusive Dental podcast. I appreciate you for joining us. Today is such an impactful hour that we have on teeth whitening. Now a lot of you thinking teeth whitening, come on, Jaz that's so basic. Just get a tray, wax, some gel in and that will whiten the teeth, right? Well, no, there's so much more to it than that. And this is going to be probably the most impactful Real Talk 60 minutes of teeth whitening content you ever heard. I think everyone needs to hear it because today's guest is Payman Langroudi. He was a dentist. And then he founded Enlighten Whitening, which is the premium brand of teeth whitening in the UK. And what he's doing is amazing. He's such a massive supporter of young dentists and dental education. So it was an absolute honor to have him on and he really covers it in a real talk fashion, right? We don't know it's not to scientific, it's not to blah, blah. It's actually so easy to listen to Payman Langroudi talk about these things. I hope you enjoy and follow along with great ease. We talk about all the important things that you should know as a practitioner for teeth whitening like comparing the different tray designs, what might surprise you is that a gel is not a gel is not a gel so all the gels may not be the same and you know we'll look into why that might be the case, how to maximize success by reducing sensitivity and how and why you should be doing more teeth whitening right now. The Protrusive Dental Pearl I have for this episode is whitening related. Did you know that you could be whitening your patient's teeth during tooth alignment. So a lot of my Invisalign patients will be whitening as they go along. But the magic really happens at the end like some of my patients will whiten so well during their aligner phase that there's hardly anything to do at the end. But that's rare. That's when they got all the best enamel and their protocol is really good and everything just aligned. But a lot of patients will need the final teeth whitening at the end in their retainers. But the Vivera retainers by Invisalign and this is not sponsored by Invisalign or anything. They are fantastic, right? We all know how good Vivera retainers are.
