FOLLOW PRE & POST TIPS TO INSURE THE BEST TEETH WHITENING EXPERIENCE
Prior to you appointment
You do not have to do anything specific other than DO NOT brush your teeth 3 HOURS before your teeth whitening treatment.
We do however recommend your usual 6 & 12 month regular visit to the dentist.
During your appointment
- Your Certified Teeth Whitening Specialist will go through everything with you, do a consultation and answer any questions you may have.
- You can sit back, relax and watch TV or play on your phone. We then assist you with inserting the cheek retractor, take a shade measurement and have a look at your teeth to make sure everything is OK to progress with the treatment.
- We will apply the protective base barrier along the gums then whitening gel on your teeth and activate the laser light which will start the first 15 minute session.
- After the first session is completed we will reapply a new layer of teeth whitening gel and start the second 15 minute session.
- Repeating as necessary, depending on services selected.
- We remove the cheek retractor and you can see your dazzling new white smile in the mirror.
