Are dentist-supervised bleaching systems safe?
Yes. Numerous studies have proven peroxide-based bleaching systems to be safe and effective in whitening teeth. Common side effects include an increased sensitivity to cold in recently bleached teeth and irritation to the oral soft tissues. These side effects are treatable and usually resolve within a few days. With each bleaching service, our patients receive a convenient take-home package, which includes post-operative instructions and whitening products that will maintain your white smile and minimize post-treatment sensitivity. Our staff is always available to answer any questions that a patient may have regarding their treatment.
