 Teeth Whitening FAQs

N

How does teeth whitening work?

At Ladysmith Smiles, our take-home whitening kit involves applying a professional-strength gel to custom-fitted trays. The gel works to break down stains and gradually lighten your teeth, with your progress monitored through regular check-ins with us.

What's the difference between take home trays and over-the-counter options?

Over-the-counter teeth whitening products, like toothpastes, strips, and gels, generally contain lower concentrations of bleaching agents and are less potent than professional-grade treatments. Custom whitening trays are more effective, as they ensure the clinical-strength whitening solution reaches every part of your teeth, leading to faster and more noticeable results compared to over-the-counter options.

N

How long does teeth whitening last?

The duration of teeth whitening results depends on factors like oral hygiene, diet, and lifestyle choices such as smoking or consuming stain-causing foods and drinks. Typically, whitening effects can last from several months to a couple of years, with regular touch-ups or maintenance treatments recommended to extend the results.

N

Is teeth whitening safe?

Teeth whitening is safe when you follow professional guidelines. At Ladysmith Smiles, we use approved bleaching agents and take steps to protect your gums and other oral tissues from irritation. To minimize potential side effects, it’s important to adhere to our team’s instructions and avoid overusing whitening products.

N

Does teeth whitening cause sensitivity?

Teeth whitening can sometimes lead to temporary sensitivity, particularly right after the treatment. This sensitivity is typically mild and usually fades within a few days. To ease discomfort and reduce sensitivity, we often recommend using desensitizing agents or fluoride treatments during and after the whitening process.

N

Is teeth whitening covered by insurance?

Teeth whitening is typically considered a cosmetic procedure and is usually not covered by dental insurance. Most insurance plans focus on essential dental treatments and preventive care. For specific coverage details, it’s best to check with your insurance provider. Contact Ladysmith Smiles today if you have any questions about what’s covered in your insurance.
