Frequently Asked Questions About Teeth Whitening

Yes, when performed by a qualified dental professional, teeth whitening is completely safe. We use professional-grade products that are approved for dental use and carefully monitor the process to ensure your safety and comfort.

Unlike over-the-counter products, professional whitening allows us to:

Protect your gums and soft tissues from irritation
Customize the treatment strength based on your tooth sensitivity
Address any potential issues before they become problems
Ensure even, consistent results without damaging tooth enamel

Teeth whitening results typically last between 6 months to 2 years, depending on your habits and lifestyle. Factors that affect longevity include:

Diet: Consumption of staining foods and drinks (coffee, tea, red wine, berries)
Smoking: Tobacco use will cause staining to recur more quickly
Oral hygiene: Regular brushing and flossing helps maintain results
Touch-ups: Using take-home whitening trays for occasional maintenance

We provide all patients with aftercare instructions and offer maintenance kits to help prolong your results.

Professional teeth whitening is highly effective on most extrinsic (surface) stains caused by:

Coffee, tea, and red wine
Tobacco use
Aging-related yellowing
Certain foods like berries and curries

However, it may be less effective on:

Intrinsic (internal) stains caused by trauma or medication
Tetracycline antibiotic stains
Fluorosis (excessive fluoride exposure)
Stains on dental restorations (crowns, veneers, fillings)

During your consultation, we'll assess your specific type of staining and recommend the most appropriate treatment options.

Some patients experience temporary tooth sensitivity during or after whitening treatments. This is usually mild and subsides within 24-48 hours. We take several measures to minimize sensitivity:

Using desensitizing agents before and after treatment
Customizing the whitening solution strength based on your sensitivity level
Recommending toothpaste for sensitive teeth in the days following treatment
Providing guidance on avoiding very hot or cold foods immediately after whitening

Most patients find that any sensitivity is well worth the dramatic improvement in their smile. If you have particularly sensitive teeth, we can adjust your treatment plan to ensure your comfort.
