The Secret of Equivalent Whitening Power.     

Don't let the numbers fool you...

Most whitening compounds use Carbamide Peroxide as their active ingredient.

CP breaks down to Hydrogen Peroxide in use, but CP’s active concentration is only about one third that of Hydrogen Peroxide.

Consequently, a whitening compound that is 21% CP is only about 7% HP.

Most patients and even some dentists assume Carbamide Peroxide and Hydrogen Peroxide are equivalent and are swayed by a bigger number that alludes to some kind of peroxide.
