Why KöR

The science, in plain English.

Most whitening fails in two ways: it hurts, or it fades. KöR was engineered around five ideas that fix both. Tap a card to see the science.

of active whitening per night in sealed KöR trays, versus the 20–30 minutes most gels manage before saliva shuts them down.

That's the whole difference: more time working, at lower strength, with less sting.

Strips, lights, or KöR?

Whitening strips work on surface stain. Bleaching lights mostly dehydrate teeth, which fades within days. KöR works deeper, and gently.

Is KöR right for you?

Great for the stains other whitening gives up on.

  • Coffee, tea and wine stains that strips never quite fix
  • Yellowing that comes with age
  • Sensitive teeth that have ruled out whitening before
  • Grey or tetracycline staining (with an extended protocol)
  • A wedding, interview or milestone on the calendar

Crowns, veneers and fillings don't whiten, we'll talk through matching options at your consult.

Whitening questions, answered.

Most KöR patients report little to no sensitivity. The gel is refrigerated from the day it's made, so it doesn't need the harsh acid stabilizers that cause zingers, and every kit includes a desensitizer you apply after each session.

A typical case is about two weeks of at-home whitening in your custom trays, followed by a finishing visit in our Irvine office. Deeper stains may take a little longer.

No. With occasional at-home touch-ups in your trays, KöR results are designed to last, and you can keep enjoying your favorite foods and drinks.

Independent studies haven't shown that bleaching lights improve results, and the heat can increase sensitivity and dehydrate teeth, which makes them look temporarily whiter. KöR relies on chemistry and fit instead.

Often, yes. KöR is one of the few systems known for treating stubborn tetracycline and grey staining, using an extended protocol.

Pricing depends on the protocol your smile needs. We'll give you a clear, itemized quote at your consultation, and financing is available.
