Hello everybody, my name is Andrea and I've had my own teapointing business since 2018. I am a dental hygienist and I was working in the dental office for many many years. In fact, I've been in the dental profession since, oh goodness, 2005, where I would do teeth whitening all the time and then I decided to branch out and have my own business because you make really good money in the teapointing business if you didn't know. Patients are always happy afterwards. It's quite easy, limited expenses, it's a great business to get into and I've been doing that since 2018. I see clients in my own home but I also travel mobile to their homes. I do teeth whitening parties. I go to offices as kind of a pretty cool office incentive there. We have a lot of fun having your own teapointing business is amazing. Now you might be worried, can you have your own teeth whitening business? Are you allowed? Is it legal? Are you going to get into trouble? This does vary everywhere but what I tell everybody when they're looking into taking the teeth whitening course with me because I do teach teeth whitening technicians how to become well, I teach aspiring teeth whitening technicians, people who want to whitening teeth. They want to have their own business but they don't have any dental experience. I teach those people how to become teeth whitening technicians. So dental experience is not necessary but if you do some Google searching, reading into it a little bit, there's a lot of things online that says or might say that you're not allowed to whiten teeth without a dental professional and let me tell you the differences there. You actually are allowed to whiten teeth. You are allowed to have your own business, no dental experience necessary but they don't mention that in those Google searches that you've been doing. So let me explain the differences to you. You have to be a dental professional if you're going to use very strong peroxide, like 44% strong, strong strong you are not allowed to use that without having dental knowledge because things can happen to the teeth. Things can happen to the gums that if you haven't taken a four-year course or two-year course depending if you're a dental assistant or dental hygienist, then you just wouldn't know how to handle that. That's quite a disservice to your client. Your client would get upset who knows they could sue you all kinds of things, right? I mean, I'm just going into it too much probably but that is why they have since nipped that in the bud saying only dental professionals can teeth whiten. If you look into it even further, it might even say, it might even say you cannot whiten the teeth without working with a dentist. So if you don't look at the fine print, if you don't read into it further, any aspiring teeth whitening technician is going to go, oh, I'm not a dental professional, I can't do it. Even in some cases, if you're a dental professional, they try to tell you you're not allowed to do it. But that's where the fine line is. No, you're not allowed to use the strongest proxides, but that's where somebody with experience, I teach teeth whitening technicians how to open up their own teeth whitening business. I teach you guys the proxides you're allowed to use. The simple thing is is you can use, you can whiten the teeth, but it has to be a certain level of proxides and that's what I give you through the course. So when you sign up from for my course, the Whiting Pro Academy, I give you everything you need for 10 clients. And then after that, you have full access to your wholesale account to order any time to order additional proxides, cheaper tractors, masks, bibs, all kinds of things, but you get everything you need for the first 10 clients, including this super cool LED light. So it's as simple as as that. But I do tell people, if you're like super worried, you can't sleep at night, you just don't know if this is for you, and you're basically ignoring what I'm telling you that you can have your own teeth whitening business, then don't do it. Becoming a teeth whitening technician isn't for you, but you just have to dig into it a little bit deeper. And those people telling you that you can't have your own teeth whitening business, they're wrong. They have also did a quick Google search and that's why they tell you that. But of course, it is you, your business, your life, if it's concerning you too much, then becoming a teeth whitening technician is not for you. But there's another part to this video. And that is in some areas, it does say you can only whiten the teeth using the self-administered teeth whitening method. So if you've heard that before in your Google search, other videos, maybe you've heard about it from somewhere else, that is basically the same thing. But that also means that the self-administered method means you apply everything, you give everything to your client, you make it accessible to them, and then they apply the product themselves. They wouldn't be able to get the product unless you had it, you are going to assist them because they're going to look at all of this stuff and go, how do I put the proxides on? What do I do? You're going to do it for them, because them trying to do it themselves is going to cause more damage. They're not going to know what to do, because as a teeth whitening technician, we put in the lovely cheek retractors, we put on a gingerville protective coating around the lips, around and on the gums to protect the gums from the proxides. We learn how and when and where to apply the proxides. So there's no sensitivity, so there's no gingerville burning. We know how to do it. We are taught for how long to do it. We are taught how to use the light properly. We are taught how to wear protective safety glasses. So the clients not hurting themselves trying to figure it out and do it themselves. So they could order all of this stuff if they wanted to, but what client is going to, they're not going to know how to use it and they're going to harm themselves. So teeth whitening technicians, we learn how to do it. We do it for them. So if you're wondering if having your own teeth whitening business is legal, yes it is. If you're a non-dental professional, so if you have no dental experience, you can still do it, but there has to be a certain level of proxides you are allowed to use and a certain method you are allowed to use. That's what I teach you for Canada for the US. I have been teaching for several years now and I have taught many successful teeth whitening technicians. If you're super concerned, no. What I tell aspiring students of mine is do a group, do a group, do a Google search of my goodness I've been talking a lot today for teeth whitening technicians in your area or perhaps say teeth whitening in Texas teeth whitening Toronto Ontario. You will notice through those Google searches that hair salons are offering teeth whitening. That's spas are offering teeth whitening. So why can't you do it too? Think about it, right? So if you guys have any questions, I suggest listening to this video again, okay? Because I get a lot of people still ask me, well, is teeth whitening legal in my state? Is teeth whitening legal in my area? My response is always going to be the same. Yes, it is, but it does depend on me amount and level of proxides. It is your life. You are your own person. It's your own business, but I give you all of the skills. I teach you guys how to become a teeth whitening technician, but also how do have a successful business. So many people start a business. It doesn't have to be teeth whitening. It could be anything, but then you don't know how to market. You don't know how to advertise. You don't know how to get new clients. You don't know how to keep clients. You don't know how to ask the clients to come back. You don't know how to process payment. You don't know bookkeeping. I teach you guys all of that. So if you are looking to get out of your nine to five job that you hate or you want to start a side hustle, maybe you don't necessarily want to quit your job or get completely out of it, but you want to do something on the side. Maybe you just want to make some more money, right? Why not? You can make $200 per hour being a teeth whitening technician. That's why so many people do it. That is why it's an amazing business and clients will come to you. Be becoming a teeth whitening technician is for you. You want to do it.
