Our teeth darken naturally as we age, but most of us unfortunately speed up the process by drinking coffee and red wine.
Heavily-pigmented foods and drinks can stain our teeth, and even the most diligent brushing and flossing won’t be able to keep away that yellow tinge.

Teeth whitening can temporarily increase tooth sensitivity, and cause irritation to the gums. These side effects should only last a few days. If this increased sensitivity doesn’t go away after a week has passed since your whitening procedure, contact us right away for an assessment.
The chemicals used in our teeth whitening procedures are only made to work on natural teeth. They will not work on the porcelain material that dentures and veneers are made out of.
This varies from patient to patient and can depend on your current tooth colour and oral care habits. In general, you can see your teeth get anywhere from 6 to 12 shades whiter with our take-home teeth whitening treatment kits.
Teeth whitening with our take-home kits should only be done once per year. Doing it more frequently can cause tooth enamel to weaken. Rather than relying on teeth whitening for a brighter smile, focus on proper oral care and regular dental cleanings to maintain white teeth.
Immediately following you whitening treatment, your teeth are more susceptible to stains, this is because your teeth have small pores which are opened up by the whitening treatment. In the type of whitening product used at our office avoid foods and drinks that easily stain teeth for at least an hour after each whitening treatment.
