Frequently Asked Questions
What is professional teeth whitening?
Professional teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental procedure that effectively lightens the color of your teeth. It uses high-quality, professional-strength bleaching agents under the supervision of a dentist to achieve brighter and whiter teeth.
How does professional teeth whitening differ from over-the-counter products?
Professional teeth whitening offers stronger bleaching agents, customized treatment plans, and the supervision of a dental professional, ensuring both effectiveness and safety. Over-the-counter products are generally less potent and not tailored to individual needs.
Is professional teeth whitening safe?
Yes, when performed by a qualified dental professional, teeth whitening is a safe procedure. Your dentist will take precautions to protect your gums and address any tooth sensitivity issues.
How long does professional teeth whitening last?
The results of professional teeth whitening can last for several months to a few years, depending on lifestyle factors such as diet, oral hygiene, and tobacco use. Regular maintenance and touch-up treatments can prolong the results.
Are there any side effects of teeth whitening?
The most common side effects are temporary tooth sensitivity and mild gum irritation, which usually subside shortly after the treatment.
How long does a professional teeth whitening session take?
A typical in-office teeth whitening session lasts about an hour. The exact duration can vary depending on the whitening method used and the desired level of whitening.
Can anyone get their teeth whitened?
Most adults can benefit from teeth whitening, but it's not recommended for children under 16, pregnant or lactating women, or individuals with gum disease, worn enamel, cavities, or allergies to whitening products.
Will teeth whitening work on all types of stains?
Teeth whitening is most effective on extrinsic (surface) stains caused by foods, drinks, and smoking. Intrinsic stains, such as those caused by medications or trauma, may not respond as well to whitening treatments.
How do I maintain my whitened teeth?
To maintain your whitened teeth, practice good oral hygiene, avoid staining foods and beverages, and consider using a whitening toothpaste. Regular dental checkups and cleanings are also essential.
How much does professional teeth whitening cost?
The cost of professional teeth whitening varies depending on the type of treatment and geographic location. It's best to discuss the cost and payment options with your dentist during a consultation.
