Frequently Asked Questions
What type of tooth whitener is used with the LaserSmile™ teeth whitening system?
The LaserSmile teeth whitening system uses a hydrogen peroxide-based whitening gel which a 37% hydrogen peroxide concentration and a pH of around 7. In comparison, at home teeth whitening kits usually contain 3 to 10% hydrogen peroxide. This difference in peroxide concentration is why professional teeth whitening treatment can achieve whiter results more rapidly.
How long will it take to whiten my teeth?
Most people only need their teeth bleached once, as Laser Teeth Whitening can whiten up to six shades in one session. Each teeth whitening session is broken down into four individual applications of the teeth whitener: two applications on the top teeth and two applications on the bottom teeth. The duration of the first application is 16 minutes and the second application is 8 minutes. This means that the total exposure of the patient's teeth to the LaserSmile teeth whitening gel is a total of 24 minutes on the top teeth and 24 minutes on the bottom teeth, a total of 48 minutes. Pre and post treatment preparations and activities that surround the treatment usually cause the treatment to last about two hours.
How should I prepare for teeth whitening?
Before your appointment you should have a professional dental cleaning to remove surface stain and tartar.
