Teeth Whitening FAQs
1. What is teeth whitening?
Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental procedure that lightens the color of your teeth by removing stains and discoloration. It can be done professionally at a dental office or with take-home kits provided by your dentist.
2. Is teeth whitening safe?
Yes, professional teeth whitening is safe when performed by a qualified dentist. We use clinically approved whitening agents and take measures to protect your teeth and gums during the process.
3. How long does the teeth whitening procedure take?
In-office whitening treatments typically take about 60-90 minutes. Take-home kits may take a few weeks to achieve the desired results, depending on the level of whitening required and the frequency of use. We generally advised at home whitening unless time constraints are an issue from patient perpective.
4. How long will the results last?
The results of professional teeth whitening can last anywhere from six months to two years, depending on your oral hygiene and lifestyle habits. Avoiding staining foods and beverages and maintaining regular dental check-ups can help prolong the results.
5. Will teeth whitening work on all teeth?
Teeth whitening is most effective on natural tooth enamel and may not work on dental restorations such as crowns, veneers, or fillings. Your dentist will assess your teeth to determine if whitening is suitable for you.

Some people may experience temporary tooth sensitivity or gum irritation following teeth whitening. These side effects are usually mild and subside within a few days. Our dental team will provide you with tips to manage any discomfort.
