Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Extrinsic Stains
Extrinsic Stains will be evaluated using the validated Lobene Stain Index (LSI) Stain Intensity score range is between 0 and 3, where: 0 = no stain 1. = light stain 2. = moderate stain 3. = heavy stain The mean stain intensity will be calculated for both the gingival and body regions of the incisor teeth for each subject. Stain Area score rage is between 0 and 3, where: 0 = no stain 1. = stain covering up to one third of region 2. = stain covering up to two thirds of region 3. = stain covering more than two thirds of region The mean stain area will be calculated for both the gingival and body regions of the incisor teeth for each subject.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Adult subjects aged 18-70, that are in good health.
- Subjects should have notable extrinsic dental stains on the 6 maxillary labial front teeth, or on the 6 mandibular front teeth (lingual or labial), with a total extrinsic tooth stain score ≥14 according to the LSI.
- Subject must have at least 2 natural anterior teeth, each having a mean Lobene composite score of ≥ 1.5 as assessed by the Investigator.
- Subject front teeth shade should be 9 or darker (meaning shade score should be between 9 and 29), as assessed by the Vita bleachedguide 3D-Master or the Vita EasyShade device.
- The subjects should understand the information provided about the investigative nature of the treatment, possible benefits and side effects. Subjects will sign the Informed Consent Form.
- The subjects should be willing to comply with the study procedure and schedule, including the follow up visits, and will refrain from using any other teeth whitening technologies during this period.
- The subject did not perform any procedure for teeth whitening (either at home or in clinic) at least 3 years prior to participating in the study.
You may not qualify if:
- Pacemaker or internal defibrillator, or any other active electrical implant anywhere in the body.
- Pregnant or nursing by subject report.
- Any active condition in the oral cavity at the discretion of the investigator.
- Any surgery in the treated area within 3 months prior to treatment, or before complete healing.
- Subjects that do not brush regularly.
- Any condition that might make it unsafe for the subject to participate in the study, at the discretion of the investigator.
