The kits you buy at the grocery store are "one size fits all" and aren't very strong. My professional whitening is much faster and more powerful. Plus, I make sure your gums stay safe and comfortable while we brighten your smile.

Some people feel a little "zing" or light sensitivity for a day or two, but it goes away quickly. I tailor your treatment to you, if you have sensitive teeth I use a special gel to keep you comfortable. Your teeth will feel back to normal in no time, just much whiter!

This is a great question! Most doctors and experts say it’s best to wait until after you’ve had your baby and finished breastfeeding before doing a professional whitening. Even though there isn't proof that it’s "dangerous," your body is going through a lot of changes right now. Your gums can get extra sensitive or swollen because of pregnancy hormones, which might make the whitening feel uncomfortable. It’s always better to be safe and save your bright new smile for a post-baby "treat yourself" moment!

It usually lasts anywhere from 6 months to 2 years, but it really depends on your habits! If you’re a big fan of iced coffee, tea, or red salsa, the stains might come back a little faster. Think of it like a professional car wash; it looks amazing, but eventually, everyday life adds a little "dust." A quick touch-up once or twice a year will keep them sparkling.

Professional whitening only works on natural teeth. If you have a porcelain crown or a veneer, the whitening gel won’t change its color. If you’re planning on getting a new crown or veneer soon, a tip is to whiten your teeth first! That way, your dentist can match your new porcelain to your brightest, whitest natural shade.

Everyone is different, but most people see their teeth get 5 to 8 shades lighter in just one session! We aren’t trying to make them look "fake" or "blinding", we’re just trying to get them back to their brightest, healthiest natural color.

For the first hour only drink water, then for the first 24-48 hours, try to stick to "White Foods" (like pasta with white sauce, chicken, or rice). Your teeth are a little extra "thirsty" right after whitening, so if you drink something dark like grape juice or coffee, they might soak up those stains immediately. After a day or two, you’re good to go back to your normal favorites!
