 “My favorite thing about my job is the freedom that working in Research & Development (R&D) gives me to be creative and research things. Certainly, it has to be disciplined, but it doesn’t mean I have a script for every day,” says Peter Allred, Ultradent’s Technology Director over Formulations. Thanks to that culture of creativity and the freedom Ultradent gives its R&D team to try new things, the size and product offering of Ultradent has grown vastly since Peter first arrived. “When I started at Ultradent, I think we had 75–80 people who worked here. Now we have over a thousand! We made Opalescence® once a week—now we make four or five batches a day. Usually we’d make one or two other things, like Ultra-Etch, once a week too. We were a very small operation. There were only 10 people filling syringes and now we have automated machines to do that.” He continues, “We would go to Dr. Fischer’s house once a week or so to fill up two containers of glycerin, which is, aside from water, the most used ingredient in any of our products—and now we receive that in tanker trucks 500 gallons at a time, at several shipments a week. The scales have changed dramatically!”

 This edition of Whitening MythBusters hits on some very important issues that seem to come up over and over when it comes to teeth whitening. Some of these include: Will whitening damage my teeth? Exactly how white can I get my teeth? How long will the whitening last? Will it hurt? What about post-whitening sensitivity? Is the chemical used in teeth whitening toxic? We’re here to help! Let’s get right to it.

## [A Whitening Solution for Non-Vital Teeth: Opalescence Endo](https://blog.ultradent.com/a-whitening-solution-for-non-vital-teeth-opalescence-endo?hsLang=en)

[Ultradent Products Inc.](https://blog.ultradent.com/author/ultradent-products-inc) | March 21, 2015

 “Walking bleach,” or endodontic whitening, provides a whitening solution for the many patients with one or more non-vital teeth. Non-vital teeth often appear darker than the rest of a patient’s smile due to internal bleeding caused by trauma, the presence of necrotic debris, or pigmentation as a result of previously used endodontic treatment materials. Thus, unlike most whitening cases where discoloration is caused by external staining to vital teeth (usually due to smoking, eating, and/or drinking habits,) as the pre-fix “endo” suggests, endodontic whitening, or walking bleach, is used when discoloration comes from the inside out.

## [Ultrapak: How the Best Retraction Cord on the Market Has Only Gotten Better](https://blog.ultradent.com/ultrapak-how-the-best-retraction-cord-on-the-market-has-only-gotten-better?hsLang=en)

[Ultradent Products Inc.](https://blog.ultradent.com/author/ultradent-products-inc) | March 20, 2015

 In the early years of my career, the advent of braided retraction cords were a big improvement over the twisted cords of the past, although despite the improvement, I often found that these “new and improved” cords could still be too rigid. This, due to the fact that 99% of the component of the fiber in braided cords runs close to parallel to the long access of the cord—making it so that pushing down on one end of the cord caused the length of the cord behind that area to rise.

 Walking the halls of Ultradent, or even visiting our offices abroad, it’s not rare to encounter people who are celebrating their fifth, tenth, twentieth, thirtieth (and beyond) anniversaries with the company. Ultradent inspires incredible loyalty with those who join the team, and Pamela Huelsmann is no exception. Having been with Ultradent for ten-and-a-half years now, Pamela works as a sales assistant covering Germany, Austria, the Netherlands, and Belgium.

 “The dentists love the Ultradent catalog because it’s an instructional manual too. It’s not just page after page of products and prices,” says Michelle Evans, the company’s catalog designer for the past 18 years. “Since the very first catalog, it’s also been a products and procedures manual. I’m always updating it thanks Ultradent’s innovation and frequent new product launches. Also, the awards that we list for each product is something we update every year.” She continues, “I work on more than 15 catalogs a year. I do one domestic catalog, and numerous international catalogs, including catalogs in Portuguese and Spanish. We also have an endodontic products catalog, an endo international catalog, an ortho catalog, an ortho catalog in Spanish, and we print a universities catalog, among others. I touch at least three catalogs every single day.”

 “PermaFlo DC, a composite luting/restorative material, has some unique capabilities. It has been put under the category of “dual-cure” because that’s well known to dentists. However, in reality, an actual dual-cure product would be able to be a stand-alone light cure product. Or, it would be a stand-alone chemical cure product in two separate, disconnected syringes,” Dr. Fischer, Ultradent founder, and president remarks. “The challenge with that, for years, was that all ‘dual-cure composites’, if used only in the chemical cure mode, would never polymerize as completely as they should, and would never come out as strong as they could if they had been light activated.” He continues, “Where dentists really need a ‘dual-cure,’ is where adequate light can’t reach in the restoration to assure quality polymerization, like with an opacious crown or a restoration in the deep interproximal area, subgingivally.”

 Step One Grip the tab at the top of the matrix band with the pin tweezers. Practice getting comfortable using the tweezers, as the top of the tweezers work by pressing to open, and the bottom of the tweezers work by pressing to grip. The tab on side of the band are for removal after use.

## [Ultradent's Ultimate BHAG (Big, Hairy, Audacious Goal)](https://blog.ultradent.com/ultradents-ultimate-bhag-big-hairy-audacious-goal?hsLang=en)

[Ultradent Products Inc.](https://blog.ultradent.com/author/ultradent-products-inc) | January 31, 2015

 Perhaps you’ve heard the somewhat brusque, inelegant, no-nonsense business term “BHAG”(pronounced BEE-hag), coined by James Collins and Jerry Porras in their 1994 book entitled Built to Last: Successful Habits of Visionary Companies. The acronym, which stands for “Big Hairy Audacious Goal,” has since permeated Western business culture and challenged companies to consider “an audacious 10- to 30-year goal to progress towards an envisioned future,” as further defined by Collins and Porras. The authors go on to say, “A true BHAG is clear and compelling, serves as unifying focal point of effort, and acts as a clear catalyst for team spirit. It has a clear finish line, so the organization can know when it has achieved the goal; people like to shoot for finish lines.”

## [The Power of a Smile: How Facial Expressions Shape Mental Health](https://blog.ultradent.com/the-power-of-a-smile-how-facial-expressions-shape-mental-health?hsLang=en)

[Ultradent Products Inc.](https://blog.ultradent.com/author/ultradent-products-inc) | October 06, 2025

 Does smiling make us happy, or do we smile because we are happy? How much can our facial expressions influence our psychological health? These are questions scientists have asked for hundreds of years.

## [Dentistry Decoded: Insights from R&D—Curing Lights](https://blog.ultradent.com/dentistry-decoded-insights-from-rd-curing-lights?hsLang=en)

[Daniel Lewis](https://blog.ultradent.com/author/daniel-lewis) | March 12, 2024

 Not all dental curing lights are created equal and it’s crucial to understand the differentiating factors between lights before investing in one for your office. Irradiance vs power, beam size, even the tools used to measure light outputs all play major roles in how a curing light will function. To find true quality and efficiency in a light, a user must be able to wade through the waves of false and misleading claims often made in the world of dental curing light advertising—Ultradent’s Sr. VP of Research & Development, Neil Jessop, delves into these topics and more in this edition of Dentistry Decoded: Insights from R&D.

## [Irradiance vs. Power: Curing Light Performance](https://blog.ultradent.com/irradiance-vs.-power-curing-light-performance?hsLang=en)

[Daniel Lewis](https://blog.ultradent.com/author/daniel-lewis) | October 05, 2022

 As curing light technology improves, dentists are consistently sold on irradiance (mw per cm2) as being the defining factor in beam effectiveness. While there is no doubt irradiance adds value, it does not tell the full story of how well a light will cure various materials. Irradiance tests typically only show the irradiance of a very small portion of the light. Measuring the power distributed over the entire beam tells a more comprehensive story of its curing capabilities.
