FAQ

Q. How does SpaWhite System work?

A. We use a patented product that was developed in Europe and has been in use there for several years. Our double sided mouthpiece is equipped with foam strips that are impregnated with a special whitening gel and other essential ingredients. A spectrum blue LED, with precise settings, is positioned between the upper and lower teeth. The formulation will reduce dental stains into water molecules and free oxygen radicals. The oxygen radicals combine with carbon-based molecules in the stained teeth and all stains are dissipated. The process will penetrate the tooth enamel but will not damage the enamel.

Q. How long does this process take and what are the results?

A. Results can vary as everyone is different. The grade of your teeth and your age can affect the process, but we recommend a 15 minute treatment. 95% of all customers see a remarkable difference and are thrilled with the results.

Q. How long will the results last?

A. One to Two years is not unusual, but we do recommend that you now care for your newly bleached teeth by avoiding dark liquids such as coffee, red wine and cola. Typically, we recommend pursuing another treatment in about six months.

Q. Is the SpaWhite system safe?

A. Research has shown that if the teeth and gums are normal and healthy there are no adverse effects to bleaching one's teeth. You must make sure the dosage is proper and administered in a professional manner.

Q. Who may benefit from the SpaWhite system?

A. Almost everyone can enjoy the benefit of the laser whitening process if their teeth and gums are healthy. Remember, teeth can not be made whiter than genetically possible. Tetracycline stains are very difficult to remove. Some stains are impossible to remove, however, 95% of our clients experience noticeably whiter teeth.

Q. I have a crown on my anterior or front teeth. Will your product whiten my crown?

A. No. The standard procedure is to whiten all adjacent teeth, wait two weeks for the color to stabilize, then go to your dentist and have him match the crown to the new shade of your teeth. On the contrary, if a crown is already been in place for many years the whitening process can return the rest of the teeth to the original shade prior to the crown placement. The same is true for composites, bridges, and veneers.

Q. Is the gel and peroxide in your product the same as that from my dentist?

A. Absolutely. Our partner in dentistry is one of the largest whitening product manufacturers in the world and supplies a great deal of product to dental offices nationwide. The key to the success of our whitening system is our blue light technology which increases the potency of whitening in a fraction of the time and cost.

Q. Is this procedure done by a dentist?

A. This is a cosmetic process and is provided by a teeth whitening professional not a dentist.

Q. What causes stains?

A. Some teeth are naturally pigmented or stained as they develop. Typically, stains come from exposure to tea, coffee, smoking, juices, colas, wine, age, or just about anything that would stain a white tee shirt.

Q. Are there any side effects?

A. Some people may feel a little tingling sensation, white gum line, or sensitivity, all of which are normal and not harmful.

Q. How long before I can eat or drink after my treatment?

A. During the first 24 hours after the treatment we recommend avoiding coffee, tea, dark colored sodas, red wines, berries, candy, red sauces, beets, or any foods that have the propensity to stain. Remember if it can stain a white tee shirt it can stain your teeth.
