FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

For each service, I will break your session into either two, three or four sessions. Each session I will wipe off the previous whitening gel and reapply. The whitening gel will open the pores on your teeth to remove the  extrinsic and intrinsic staining.

Teeth Whitening  is not permanent. People who expose their teeth to foods and  beverages that cause staining may see the whitening fade in as little as a month. Those who avoid foods and beverages that stain may be able to wait 6 months or longer before another treatment.

avoid eating or drinking anything that can stain your teeth, such as coffee, tea, soda, berries, and anything tomato paste. If you do choose to eat or drink these items, be sure to rinse your mouth or brush your teeth afterwards.

Your teeth will be several shades lighter immediately after treatment.
