Professional teeth whitening results can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on your habits and oral care. To prolong the effects, we recommend avoiding staining foods and drinks like coffee, red wine, and tea—and brushing regularly with whitening-safe toothpaste. Touch-up treatments every 3 to 6 months can help maintain your results. Your provider will recommend a customized plan based on your lifestyle and whitening goals.

Some clients experience mild tooth sensitivity for 24–48 hours after whitening, especially if they already have sensitivity or gum recession. However, we use professional-grade products formulated to minimize discomfort, and we take precautions to protect your enamel and gums. If you’re concerned about sensitivity, let us know—we can adjust the treatment or recommend a post-whitening care plan to help you stay comfortable.

Most clients can safely receive professional whitening every 3 to 6 months, depending on their personal habits and goals. If you regularly consume staining substances (like coffee or wine), you may benefit from more frequent touch-ups. However, over-whitening is not recommended, as it can lead to enamel erosion. We’ll help you build a safe, effective schedule to maintain a brilliant smile without compromising your dental health.

Teeth whitening is safe for most adults with healthy teeth and gums. However, it may not be suitable for those with extensive dental restorations (like crowns or veneers), untreated cavities, or severe gum disease. Whitening won’t change the color of fillings or porcelain materials. Before treatment, we conduct a full assessment to ensure it’s the right option for you and to minimize any risks.

Over-the-counter products like strips and trays can offer mild improvement, but they lack the strength and precision of professional treatments. They also tend to whiten unevenly and may cause more sensitivity. Our in-office whitening delivers faster, safer, and more even results using medical-grade products and proper application. It’s ideal if you want immediate results or have a specific goal in mind for your smile.
