How long does in-office teeth whitening last?
How long in-office teeth whitening lasts depends on several factors, but generally, the results can last from six months to three years. The duration of the whitening effect can be influenced by factors such as:
- Diet: Consuming foods and drinks that stain teeth, like coffee, tea, red wine, and dark berries, can reduce the longevity of the whitening results.
- Oral Hygiene: Regular brushing, flossing, and professional dental cleanings can help maintain the whitening effects.
- Tobacco Use: Smoking or using other tobacco products can stain teeth and significantly shorten the duration of teeth whitening results.
- Initial Shade of Teeth: Teeth with deeper stains may not lighten as much or may require more frequent touch-ups.

Is dental whitening safe?
Teeth whitening is generally deemed safe. Professional treatments are the safest choice for whitening teeth.
When using at-home whitening products, it is crucial to avoid excessive use. Be careful not to apply abrasive whitening products too frequently or too vigorously, as this could harm your enamel. With chemical whiteners, opt for strips with a lower chemical concentration and ensure they are not left on for too long, as this can lead to tooth sensitivity and gum discomfort.

How is professional teeth whitening performed?
Our office provides professional in-office teeth whitening services. The procedure begins with protecting sensitive areas within the mouth, such as the lips and gums, to shield them from the peroxide. Next, we apply a high-concentration hydrogen peroxide gel to the teeth and activate the gel. You will comfortably rest for a brief period while the gel takes effect. Afterward, we remove the protective coverings and thoroughly rinse off the gel.
