  1. Does teeth whitening cause damage?

Whitening does not damage the teeth. Patients can cause damage by abusing the teeth whitening process. But, with proper precautions and following instructions, professional tooth whitening is safe!

These stains take years to accumulate, and to penetrate with the whitening agent safely will take five days to 6 weeks. It’s a slow process to remove years or even decades of stains. Once completed, it’s easy to maintain.
