Professional Teeth Whitening FAQs
What whitening options do you offer?
We offer KOR Whitening, a professional-grade system that combines in-office and at-home treatment for dramatic, long-lasting results. KOR is also one of the few whitening systems that can address stubborn intrinsic staining, such as tetracycline staining. We also provide custom take-home whitening trays. Over-the-counter strips cannot match the strength or precision of professionally supervised whitening.
How long will KOR Whitening results last?
Results vary based on diet, coffee and tobacco habits, and oral hygiene. KOR Whitening is designed for long-lasting outcomes; patients at our practice have maintained results for a decade or more. Using your custom touch-up trays periodically and avoiding staining foods in the days after treatment helps preserve the outcome.
Will whitening work on crowns, veneers, or bonding?
Whitening agents only affect natural tooth enamel; they will not change the shade of existing crowns, veneers, or bonded restorations. If you have visible dental work, your dentist will discuss timing and whether those restorations should be coordinated with your whitening treatment so everything matches.
Is professional whitening safe for sensitive teeth?
Sensitivity during or after whitening is common but manageable. Our team will assess your enamel and gum health before recommending a protocol. Desensitizing agents are incorporated into the KOR system specifically to minimize discomfort, and your dentist can adjust the treatment schedule if sensitivity is a concern.
