Is the whitening process permanent?
Once you reach your desired whitening level, typically within 7-10 days, the whitening should last several years. Of course, by eating different foods and drinking coffees, beverages, wines, etc., your teeth will gradually darken over time. After your initial treatment, we’d recommend doing a touchup every 4-6 months.
For most people, the treatment will last for many years. Your teeth have become stained in the first place from consuming certain foods and beverages. Upon the completion of your initial whitening process, your teeth are restored to their natural white colour. Exposure to foods, beverages (especially coffee, tea, colas and red wines), smoking and other consumables will gradually darken teeth again over time. You may want to periodically whiten your teeth. After an initial treatment, most people “touch-up” about once every 6-12 months which involves a shorter period of whitening in your trays.
