How PAP Whitening Works
The Science
What is PAP?
PAP (phthalimidoperoxycaproic acid) is a revolutionary non-peroxide oxidizer that breaks down stain molecules without releasing free radicals in the same way as hydrogen peroxide—often associated with sensitivity.
Gentle Oxidation
PAP dissolves stain molecules through a controlled, non-aggressive oxidation process. The result: a brighter smile, achieved without the enamel irritation or tooth sensitivity linked to peroxide.
Clinically Studied Whitening
In testing, two 10-minute PAP applications matched six 10-minute sessions with 6% hydrogen peroxide, and SEM imaging showed no enamel surface alterations with PAP (vs. mild changes with H₂O₂). Fewer sensitivity complaints were also noted.
Safe & Sensitive-Friendly
Designed with care for long-term oral health, PAP is peroxide-free, enamel-safe, and kind to gums. It whitens gently, ensuring comfort for even the most sensitive teeth.
Simple 4-Step Process
Brush and dry teeth
Start with clean, dry teeth for optimal strip adhesion and whitening effect.
Apply strips
Apply upper and lower strips, pressing for full contact. No trays or lights needed.
Wait 30 minutes
Relax while the PAP formula gently breaks down stains without sensitivity.
Remove and rinse
Remove strips and rinse. Avoid staining foods/drinks for 1-2 hours.
