Carbamide and Hydrogen Peroxides are proven effective for removing the most common stains caused by lifestyle habits (red wine, coffee and tea, tobacco, etc). However, other types of stains such as those caused by tetracycline, certain antibiotics, or excessive fluoride may also cause tooth discoloration and may be more difficult to whiten. Artificial dental work like crowns, bonding, veneers, bridges and composite fillings will whiten but not any whiter than when they were first put in. The whitening gel is safe to use on artificial dental work. In general, results will vary from customer to customer depending on their enamel and reaction to peroxide.

The dental professional will applied a barrier to your gums to minimize sensitivity. A minimal sensitivity or tingling sensation can occur during the whitening process and subsides completely shortly after finishing the treatment. If sensitivity persists, use sensodine toothpaste.

60 minutes teeth whitening treatment will typically whiten between 4 to 8 shades. 40 minutes treatment will whiten 2 to 4 shades. The end result largely based on genetics. Some people have naturally whiter teeth than others. Additionally, some people with more discolored teeth or compacted stains ( due to old age, bad habits, medications) will have to follow up using the take home kit after treatment and/or get a second treatment to achieve optimal results.

In theory results can last up to a year, but in practice they last less. Depending on person’s consumption of coffee, tea, red wine, colas and other darkening agents such as tobacco, most people could probably use another whitening session 6 months later. With our maintenance kit used once a month, the longevity of the treatment is improved.

Dental whitening gel should be refrigerated. If the gel gets warm, it will turn to liquid and should be discarded.

Blanching (whitening of the gums) occurs occasionally. The gums returns to the normal color usually within less than 24 hours.
