Teeth Whitening

Overview

Tooth whitening enhances the brightness of natural teeth, but it's not for everyone. Discuss it with your dentist before you take action, especially if you have:

• Discolored or sensitive teeth
• White spots or decay on your teeth
• Infected gums
• A bridge, crown, or other dental work (especially involving front teeth)

The lifespan of teeth bleaching can range from 4-12 months, depending on the type of treatment used and your consumption of food and drink that can easily stain teeth (such as blueberries, coffee, and tea).

To keep your teeth their whitest without undergoing tooth whitening treatment, practice good oral hygiene.
