What to Expect
We will do 20 min intervals depending on the service selection you choose and/or sensitivity level and your teeth will be at least 2-8 shades lighter. After we finish your treatment you may have some sensitivity that will normally subside in about 30 minutes after your service, if it persists you can use a toothpaste that is made for tooth sensitivity. You may be able to see white spots on your teeth or gums and that is normal, it will normally subside in 24 hours. To maintain your results it is best to book your whitening services every 6-12 months depending on your lifestyle.
