- 01Individual results vary, depending on your genetics, what type of stain you have (yellow=easiest to remove, brown=somewhat more difficult to remove, gray=difficult may require a series of treatments), and how thick your enamel is. We typically see 2 – 14 shades improvement in the first session: then 1-3 shades using the take home whitening pen.
- 02Individual results vary, depending on your tendency to absorb stains, your diet (coffee, tea, red wine, sodas, etc.) and lifestyle (tobacco products). Results can last up to 2 years, with proper maintenance: using the Whitening Pen, avoiding staining products, avoiding enamel-stripping substances (drugstore white strips, sugar, sodas), avoiding drugstore whitening toothpastes that contain silica or other abrasive ingredients which scratch enamel. 2-4 sessions are recommended to prevent relapse. Relapse is when bleached teeth revert to their original stained color. Getting 2-4 sessions greatly helps prevent relapse. If your salon or spa decides to incorporate teeth whitening into your line of services, you can offer follow-up sessions right at your location. If not, we recommend clients use the Whitening Pen so they can perform their follow ups at home. They are meant for maintenance, to remove daily stains but not for tougher, deeper stains from years of accumulation. Therefore, they are only 30% as effective as in-office treatments in the presence of the whitening accelerator light.)

- 06Teeth Whitening is not as effective for individuals with intrinsic staining to the teeth. These are the results of certain medications, decalcification, or those who were born with grayish teeth. It is not recommended for pregnant or nursing women or children under 18. Unless written permission from an adult.
