@islandsmilesto: Things I wish I knew as a beginner teeth whitening tech part 6!! Which cheek retractor is better? 🤔 OG c-shaped retractor: Pros 👍 - retracts the mouth further so you can whiten and see teeth that are father back (premolars) - transparency allows for aesthetically pleasing content (colour and design doesn’t take focus away from smile) Cons 👎 - uncomfortable after long periods of time - doesn’t - Need to use a cotton swab to keep tongue back & separate the bite - Rigid, hard plastic - Lips are not protected Comfort Retractor Pros 👍 - comfortable for extended periods of use - flexible and can fit in most mouths - Built in bite separator/tongue guard no need for cotton swab - Top & bottom lip are fully protected no need for cotton roll - Made out of a smooth silicone material - Reusable when disinfected under 135°C Cons 👎 - need to be disinfected (if you’re anything like me, I just end up tossing them because it takes a while to disinfect them!) so it can get costly if you’re using one per client! - sometimes hard to reach or see teeth that are further back, the comfort retractor doesn’t retract the cheeks as much, making it harder sometimes during application 🛍 Shop Teeth Whitening & Tooth Gem Supplies 👉 ISLANDSMILESTEETHWHITENING.CA ✨ 🎓 Contact Us for training inquiries! 🦷Contact Us to book an appointment! . . #teethwhitening #torontoteethwhitening #torontotoothgems #teethwhiteningtech #teethwhiteningtraining #teethwhiteningspecialist #islandsmiles #torontotoothgems #torontoteethwhiteningtraining #torontotoothgemtraining #teethwhiteningsupplies #teethwhiteningsuppliestoronto #torontoteethwhiteningsupplies #toothgemsupplies #toothgems #toothgemsupplier #torontomobileteethwhitening
