What is Teeth Whitening?

Teeth whitening is a non-invasive cosmetic dental treatment that aims to remove stains and discoloration, resulting in a significantly brighter and more attractive smile.

While there are many over-the-counter options, professional whitening provides superior results using safe, clinical-grade materials that protect your enamel while delivering maximum radiance.

Maintaining Your Brilliance

Extend the life of your whitening treatment by following these simple post-care steps.

  • The 'White Diet': Avoid staining foods/drinks (coffee, tea, wine, berries) for at least 24 hours after treatment.
  • Use a Straw: When drinking staining beverages, use a straw to minimize contact with your front teeth.
  • Consistent Hygiene: Brush and floss regularly to prevent new surface stains from forming.
  • Sensitivity Care: Use a sensitive-formula toothpaste if you experience temporary tooth sensitivity after treatment.
  • Tobacco-Free: Refrain from smoking or tobacco products, as these quickly re-stain your teeth.
  • Periodic Touch-ups: Consider maintenance treatments every few months or as recommended to keep results fresh.
  • Regular Cleanings: Schedule professional cleanings twice a year to maintain optimal oral health and shade.
