The Treatment
What Does Teeth Whitening Involve?
Your dentist first checks your teeth and gums. Whitening is not started if there is untreated decay or gum disease that should be addressed first. If whitening is suitable, your dentist will explain the professional options that may be right for you. These may include take-home trays or an in-office option; ask us which approach, if any, suits your case. Existing crowns, veneers, and many fillings do not change colour the way natural teeth do, and your dentist will point that out before you begin.
Who Needs Teeth Whitening?
Adults whose natural teeth have stained from food, drink, or aging, and who want to discuss a professional option. Whitening may not be suitable for everyone, including some people with significant sensitivity or unrestored dental problems. Ask us whether whitening is right for you.

FAQ
Teeth Whitening FAQs
How Is Professional Whitening Different From Store-Bought Products?
A dentist first checks that your teeth and gums are ready for whitening, then discusses professional options with you. We can go over what may be suitable in your case.
Does Teeth Whitening Cause Sensitivity?
Some people notice temporary sensitivity. Tell your dentist if you already have sensitive teeth so that can be taken into account.
How Long Do Whitening Results Last?
It varies from person to person. Colour can change again with time and with staining foods or drinks. Your dentist can suggest ways to care for your teeth after treatment.
Does Insurance Cover Teeth Whitening?
Coverage for cosmetic whitening varies by plan and is often limited. We accept all dental insurance, including the CDCP, direct-bill most private insurers, and can help you check your coverage.
Can I Whiten Crowns or Veneers?
Whitening does not change the colour of crowns, veneers, or many fillings. Your dentist will review this with you before treatment.
