Frequently Asked Questions About Teeth Whitening
Is professional teeth whitening more effective than over-the-counter products?
Yes, professional teeth whitening offers stronger, more consistent results than store-bought options. In-office treatments use higher concentrations of whitening agents and are applied by dental professionals, ensuring safer application and noticeable whitening in less time. At-home kits from a dentist also provide better outcomes.
How long do the results of teeth whitening last?
Teeth whitening results can last anywhere from six months to two years, depending on lifestyle habits such as diet, smoking and oral hygiene. Touch-up treatments and avoiding staining foods and beverages can help maintain brightness. Regular dental cleanings also support long-lasting results.
Will teeth whitening cause tooth sensitivity?
Some patients experience temporary tooth sensitivity following a whitening treatment. This is typically mild and subsides within a few days. Our dentists may recommend desensitizing products or adjust the treatment approach to make your experience as comfortable as possible.
Can everyone benefit from teeth whitening?
Teeth whitening is effective for most people, especially those with yellow-toned stains from foods, drinks or aging. However, it may not work as well on gray or brown discoloration, and it does not whiten crowns or fillings. A consultation helps determine candidacy.
How soon will I see results from teeth whitening?
Many patients see noticeable improvement after just one treatment. In-office whitening often provides immediate results, while at-home options may take several days to a few weeks. The speed and degree of whitening depend on the treatment type and level of staining.
