We offer both in-office and at-home teeth whitening options, allowing you to choose the method that best suits your lifestyle and needs. Our in-office procedures provide immediate results, while our take-home kits offer convenience and privacy.

Care and Maintenance Post-Whitening

How to Maintain Your Brighter Smile

To maintain your newly whitened smile, avoid staining substances such as coffee, tea, red wine, and tobacco. Regular cleaning sessions and follow-up treatments can help prolong the effects.

Post-whitening, it's crucial to avoid foods and drinks that can stain your teeth for at least 48 hours. Maintaining good oral hygiene practices also plays a significant role in keeping your teeth bright.
