Common Inquiries
How long does teeth whitening take?
In-office whitening takes about 60 minutes. Take-home kits require 30-60 minutes daily for 1-2 weeks. Both deliver excellent results at our Parksville clinic.
Will whitening damage my teeth?
No. Professional whitening is safe when done correctly. We use enamel-safe formulas and proper techniques that brighten without causing damage or weakening teeth structure.
How white will my teeth get?
Most patients brighten 3-8 shades. Exact results depend on starting color, staining type, and tooth structure. We’ll discuss realistic expectations during your consultation.
Does teeth whitening hurt?
Most patients experience zero discomfort. Our sensitivity-free formulas minimize any potential sensitivity. Even patients with typically sensitive teeth usually tolerate treatment well at Bristles Dental.
How long do whitening results last?
With good care, professional whitening lasts 1-3 years—much longer than drugstore products. Longevity depends on diet, oral hygiene, and occasional touch-ups as needed.
Can I whiten crowns or veneers?
Whitening only works on natural teeth. However, we can match new crowns/veneers to your whitened teeth or replace existing ones to match your brighter smile perfectly.
Is professional whitening worth the cost?
Absolutely. Professional whitening delivers superior, longer-lasting results using safer methods. The difference in effectiveness and longevity makes professional treatment the better investment for Parksville patients.
