Understand your treatment

Whitening can lighten natural teeth, but crowns and fillings do not respond in the same way. Some people experience temporary sensitivity. An evaluation helps explain these differences and the results that may be possible for you.

Ask about my evaluation ↗Questions about this treatment
Is everyone a candidate for whitening?
Stains respond differently and whitening is not suitable for everyone. We first assess dental health and expectations.
Can whitening cause sensitivity?
Temporary sensitivity can occur. Tell us if your teeth are already sensitive so we can consider this during your evaluation.
Will whitening lighten a crown?
No. Crown and filling materials do not lighten like natural teeth; this matters when planning the result.
