FAQ
How long does the whitening process take?
The duration depends on the method chosen. In-office treatments typically take about an hour, while at-home kits may take several days to weeks for full results.
Is teeth whitening safe for everyone?
While most people can safely whiten their teeth, it’s essential to have a dental assessment to determine the best approach for your specific needs.
Will whitening make my teeth sensitive?
Some patients experience temporary sensitivity. We use special gels to minimize this, and it typically subsides shortly after treatment.

This varies; many patients find touch-ups every six months to a year are sufficient. We can advise you based on your habits and initial results.
Can I whiten my teeth if I have fillings or crowns?
Whitening does not change the color of fillings or crowns. We’ll discuss options to ensure a uniform appearance.
What should I avoid after whitening?
Avoid foods and drinks that stain, like coffee and red wine, for at least 48 hours after treatment to maintain results.
Can pregnant women whiten their teeth?
We recommend delaying whitening until after pregnancy as a precaution, although no specific risks are known.
