FAQs
About Purple Strips™
What are Purple Strips™?
Purple Strips™ are peroxide-free, colour-correcting teeth strips designed to help reduce the appearance of yellow tones on teeth. They use purple pigment technology to visually balance colour rather than chemically whitening enamel.
Do Purple Strips™ actually whiten teeth?
Purple Strips™ do not chemically whiten teeth. Instead, they provide cosmetic colour correction, which helps teeth appear brighter by neutralising yellow tones on the surface.
How do purple colour-correcting strips work?
Purple sits opposite yellow on the colour wheel. When applied to teeth, the purple pigments help visually offset yellow tones, creating a brighter-looking appearance without bleaching or altering tooth structure.
Are the results permanent?
No. Results are temporary and cosmetic. The colour-correcting effect fades naturally over time as the pigment wears off.
Safety & Sensitivity
Are Purple Strips™ safe for sensitive teeth?
Purple Strips™ are peroxide-free and designed to be gentler than traditional whitening strips. Many people with sensitive teeth prefer them, though individual experiences may vary.
Will Purple Strips™ damage enamel?
No. Purple Strips™ do not bleach or chemically alter enamel. They work on the surface level only.
Will my teeth turn purple?
No. The pigment is designed to neutralise yellow tones, not stain teeth. Any remaining colour rinses away easily.
Do Purple Strips™ contain harsh chemicals?
Purple Strips™ are formulated without peroxide or aggressive bleaching agents. Always check the ingredient list if you have specific sensitivities.

Do Purple Strips™ work on crowns, veneers, or fillings?

Comparison to Whitening
Do Purple Strips™ replace traditional whitening?
No. Purple Strips™ are best used for appearance-based brightening and maintenance. They do not replace peroxide or professional whitening treatments.
Can I use Purple Strips™ alongside whitening treatments?
Many people use them as a maintenance or touch-up option. If you’re undergoing professional treatment, consult your dental professional for personalised advice.
