How Professional Whitening Works
Over time, deep-set stains accumulate within enamel pores from coffee, tea, wine, smoking, and natural aging. Professional whitening systems utilize active peroxide molecules to break down foreign discoloration without altering enamel structure.
To support enamel integrity and minimize post-treatment sensitivity, our formulations incorporate protective conditioning agents such as fluoride, ensuring a comfortable experience.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
How long do whitening results last?
Teeth whitening results are not permanent, so routine touch-up treatments may be needed to maintain your desired shade. How long results last can vary depending on your habits, including foods, drinks, smoking, and overall oral care.
Does teeth whitening cause sensitivity?
Teeth whitening can cause temporary tooth sensitivity for some people. This side effect usually goes away a few days after treatment is complete, and professional whitening can help reduce the risk of sensitivity and gum irritation.
Will whitening work on crowns or veneers?
Teeth whitening is best suited for healthy, unrestored teeth, so existing restorations like crowns or veneers are not typically expected to whiten in the same way as natural teeth. If you have crowns, veneers, fillings, or other dental work, your dentist can help you decide whether whitening is the right option for your smile.
