Before Your Appointment

Preparing for your teeth whitening session is simple but crucial for the best results. We advise you not to brush your teeth starting four hours before your appointment. This precaution helps prevent microabrasions on your gums, which could become irritated during the whitening process.

During Your Appointment

Your teeth whitening treatment will consist of three back-to-back 20-minute sessions, totaling approximately an hour and a half. To ensure a relaxing experience, we suggest bringing ear buds and keeping your eyes closed while the whitening light is on. We do have two whitening chairs, so you’re able to book with a friend!

After Your Appointment

Post-treatment care is essential to maintain your newly whitened teeth:

  • First 2 Hours: Drink only water to hydrate your teeth.
  • If You Did Not Choose the DaVinci Shield and Shimmer Sealant:
    • Avoid all foods and beverages for the next two hours.
    • Refrain from smoking or chewing tobacco for at least two hours.
    • Steer clear of dark-colored foods and beverages for at least 24 hours, including coffee, tea, soda, red wine, tomato sauce, red meat, and dark-colored vegetables.
  • Next 24 Hours: Opt for lighter foods such as white wine, white chicken, pork, turkey, noodles, white sauce, white cheese, and potatoes.

Long-Term Care

For the next 48 hours, brush your teeth very gently with white toothpaste, avoiding the gums. Do not use whitening or baking soda toothpaste during this period. If you experience any sensitivity, it typically subsides within 24 hours. You might consider using DaVinci desensitizing gel or a mild pain reliever.

To maintain your bright smile between sessions, ask about our home maintenance products:

  • TrueMinerals: A remineralizing and desensitizing treatment that adds 73 vital minerals back into your teeth, strengthens enamel, and helps prevent tooth decay. This is a great product to add on prior to beginning the whitening session if you are more prone to sensitivity.
  • Shield & Shimmer: A tooth sealant and shine product that allows you to eat and drink directly after whitening while adding a slight sparkle to your teeth.
  • Whitening Pen: Instantly brightens teeth by removing stains left by food, beverages, and tobacco, while also improving breath.
  • Home Maintenance Kit: Contains up to 12 applications and a whitening tray, allowing you to maintain your laser whitening results at home. We recommend using it once a month.
