There are several benefits to having custom tooth whitening trays. First, they cut down on the sensitive gums and possible stomach irritation some people might suffer from when using one size fits all whitening trays. Custom whitening trays are molded to fit your teeth so that they keep more of the bleaching agent where it is supposed to be, on your teeth, and off of your gums and out of your stomach where it causes irritation. Custom molded trays also give you a more even bleaching than generic trays. Because they are fitted to your teeth, they ensure that as long as you add the bleaching agent evenly to the tray, it will evenly spread over all your teeth. Finally, custom molded trays let you use stronger teeth whitening gels, which will get your teeth whiter, faster.
