Quality doesn’t stop at the gels but extends to the light as well because if your light is down, so are your teeth whitening profits. Here are some things to consider when choosing a quality light:
XpresSmile is one of the highest intensity cool blue lights as measured by candelas (800-1200 mW/cm2). That is 85% more intense than most other lights on market. You should be concerned if a teeth whitening vendor measures their light in Watts as this for incandescent bulbs not LED.*
Therefore, it is important to choose a light that is made well, is solid and has been tested in the market for a considerable amount of time. XpresSmile lights are designed and serviced in California and have the support of a large dental manufacturing company as well as FDA registration to ensure quality is consistent and no hazardous materials are used (lead & cadmium). Small companies that buy lights overseas do not have the resources to enforce quality and safety inspections. Buy with confidence by choosing a vendor that can afford to have FDA registered product.
Beware of lamps that are too cheap as they will have serious quality problems. Look for solid construction, necks that can withstand twisting and turning and will hold their position on the client’s mouth, and LED lights that don’t flicker off when the head is bumped. XpresSmile tested many models of lamps and some manufacturers had 4 out of 10 lamps that failed- right out of the box! That’s bad for your business and costly so it’s best to choose wisely.
In the unlikely event of a light failure, XpresSmile has you covered so your business won’t be down. Customer service technicians with deep technical knowledge are available to troubleshoot the problem and if it can’t be solved with a part, we’ll replace the light free of charge, including free shipping of the replacement and failed light.* XpresSmile also offers lifetime technical support so there is no need to buy an extended warranty.
With XpresSmile, you don’t have to wait for the sales person to get back to you and then wait even more while your light is repaired and shipped back to you. The extra cost in shipping and lost business is far more than the few dollars you save on a cheap light.
