COMMON QUERIES ABOUT TEETH WHITENING
Below is a list of the most common queries about teeth whitening.
If you have a question that has not been answered here, please head over to our CONTACT page and send us a message.
For the first 72 hours after your teeth whitening treatment, the enamel on your teeth may be more porous and vulnerable to staining. To prevent this, avoid eating or drinking for at least 2 hours after the treatment in order to allow your teeth to settle and remineralise. It is important to follow the aftercare instructions provided to you and to avoid consuming coloured foods or drinks for the first three days post-treatment to reduce the risk of staining your teeth.
Instant results are possible with the supervision of an experienced professional, which can also reduce the risk of sensitivity. However, many people may be prone to forgetfulness or lack of motivation when using at-home treatment kits, which require daily use for two weeks to achieve maximum results.
Depending on your dietary habits, oral care practices, and lifestyle, teeth whitening results can last anywhere from 4-6 months. At Ivory Smile, we recommend two sessions over a period of six weeks to achieve optimal results, then to maintain these results, we suggest our top-up treatments package every 4-6 months.
The results of teeth whitening can vary among individuals due to factors such as age, the condition of the teeth before treatment, and whether the teeth have been whitened before. On average, it is possible to achieve a lightening of 4-10 shades in a single visit. Tobacco stains can be difficult to remove, so we recommend a personalised plan to help clients achieve the best possible results.
When performed correctly by a dental professional such as Ivory Smile, teeth whitening is a very safe procedure. Any sensitivity that may occur as a result of the treatment usually disappears within 24-48 hours.
While teeth whitening is a very safe & non evasive treatment, it is still advised to avoid teeth whitening if you fall into any of the following categories:
• Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
• Those who are under-age (younger than 16).
• Those who have dental issues, such as gum disease, defects or decay.
Teeth whitening is a cosmetic procedure that uses gentler products than those used by dentists, but is still effective in brightening the appearance of your teeth by bleaching the surface without altering the enamel.
