FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

I provide all dental equipment involved in the process. I begin by setting up, having you complete a screening form and consent form, taking the before shade/picture and begin the whitening appt with the hydrogen peroxide combination, the LED light is applied, after the 60-90 minutes is complete we take an end shade/picture. The process takes about 2 hours so make sure to block that off in your calender!

The whitening itself will not hurt you. I place vitamin E oil on the gums/lips to protect the tissues from the hydrogen peroxide solution. In some cases where clients have large saliva buildup this can cause the peroxide to come down on the gum tissue, nothing that wont go away within 5-15 minutes. For clients with sensitivity I recommend brushing with sensodyne for 2 weeks before. I am very confident with this product and have had very limited to no sensitivity while using it!

A typical session takes anywhere from 1.5hrs to 2hrs. This will be 60-90 minutes with the solution/light on while laying on the chair or couch. The extra time allows for before/after shade and pictures. Get comfy!

I recommend 1-2 appointments to get best results. After we have your best shade I suggest every 3-6 months depending on daily habits.
