Common Teeth Whitening Questions
How much whiter will my teeth get with professional whitening?
Most patients achieve 6-8 shades whiter with Zoom whitening and up to 10 shades with laser treatment. Results depend on your starting shade and type of staining. Surface stains from coffee and wine respond excellently, while deeper medication stains may require multiple treatments for optimal results.
Is professional whitening safe for my teeth and gums?
Professional whitening is completely safe when performed by trained dental professionals. We use protective barriers for your gums and precisely controlled peroxide concentrations. Any temporary sensitivity typically resolves within 24-48 hours and affects less than 2% of patients with our gentle protocols.
How long do professional whitening results last?
Professional whitening results typically last 1-3 years, significantly longer than over-the-counter products. Longevity depends on your habits – avoiding staining foods, using maintenance products, and getting periodic touch-ups can extend results. We provide custom trays for easy maintenance at home.
