Opalescence Whitening Toothpaste — Frequently Asked Questions

Opalescence Whitening Toothpaste is made by Ultradent Products — the same manufacturer behind the professional Opalescence whitening gel system used in dental practices. Below are the key questions answered.

What is Opalescence Whitening Toothpaste?

Opalescence Whitening Toothpaste is a daily-use toothpaste by Ultradent Products — the same manufacturer as the professional Opalescence whitening gel system. It contains 0.5% sodium fluoride, mild abrasives (RDA ~60), and whitening agents to remove surface stain. It does not contain peroxide.

Is Opalescence Whitening Toothpaste the same as the whitening gel?

No. The toothpaste removes surface stains (extrinsic whitening). The Opalescence gels (10%–40% carbamide or hydrogen peroxide) bleach intrinsic discolouration by penetrating enamel. The toothpaste is a maintenance product for between gel treatments.

What is the difference between Opalescence Toothpaste Original and Sensitive?

Original: Standard mild abrasives for stain removal. For patients without existing sensitivity. Sensitive: Contains potassium nitrate (5%) to calm dentinal hypersensitivity. Same whitening and fluoride as Original. Choose Sensitive if you experience tooth pain with cold drinks or after whitening treatments.

Can I use Opalescence Toothpaste twice a day?

Yes. It is formulated for twice-daily brushing — a full-function daily toothpaste with fluoride, stain removal, and enamel protection. It replaces your regular toothpaste.

Is Opalescence Whitening Toothpaste safe for children?

Opalescence Whitening Toothpaste is formulated for adults and teenagers. For children under 12, use an age-appropriate fluoride toothpaste — whitening toothpastes are generally not recommended for developing enamel. Check with your dentist.
