Teeth Whitening FAQs
Whitening results can last 6 months to 2 years, depending on your diet, oral hygiene, and lifestyle habits like smoking or drinking coffee or red wine.
Yes, when performed or supervised by a dentist, teeth whitening is very safe and does not damage tooth enamel.
No. Teeth whitening only works on natural enamel and will not change the color of crowns, veneers, or tooth-colored fillings. These may need to be replaced to match your new shade.
Some patients experience temporary sensitivity after whitening. We offer low-sensitivity formulas and can recommend desensitizing toothpaste if needed.
Results vary, but many patients see their teeth become 6–8 shades lighter after treatment. We’ll discuss your desired shade and set realistic expectations before beginning.
Because it’s a cosmetic treatment, teeth whitening is typically not covered by dental insurance. However, we offer affordable pricing and flexible payment options.
