Teeth Whitening Las Vegas

In an era of selfies and video calls, it can seem like your smile is always on camera. Staining on your teeth can make you want to hide them. DaVinci teeth whitening can give you a smile you want everyone to see. You can see teeth up to 14 shades whiter, and with good care and maintenance, you can keep them that way. 

WHAT IS TEETH WHITENING?

Teeth whitening uses a bleaching chemical to remove stains from the teeth. At-home kits usually use hydrogen peroxide, while in-office whitening often uses light-activated bleaching agents. At-home treatments only remove surface stains, but in-office whitening can remove deeper stains for a brighter white.

HOW DOES TEETH WHITENING WORK?

Teeth whitening with the DaVinci system uses a brush-on laser whitening gel and LED cold laser technology to whiten your teeth with superior results. When activated by the LED cold laser, the gel becomes a gentle but powerful bleaching agent that lifts years of set-in stains for vividly white teeth. DaVinci whitens more quickly than other methods, with visible results in as little as fifteen minutes. 

HOW LONG DOES TEETH WHITENING LAST?

In-office teeth whitening results can last a long time, but how long your results last depends on how well you take care of your smile and avoid things that could re-stain your teeth. With consistent effort, whitening can last up to two or three years, but many people will need a touch-up treatment before that. Ways to keep your DaVinci smile bright include:

  • Avoid smoking or vaping
  • Brush after meals, but wait 30 minutes after eating something acidic
  • Use a whitening toothpaste
  • Limit staining foods and beverages like tea, coffee, and red wine

No matter how hard you try, teeth will eventually become less vividly white. This can take months or years and can be affected by genetics, past tooth injuries, and diet and hygiene. 

WHAT RESULTS WILL I SEE WITH TEETH WHITENING?

At-home treatments can whiten a few shades. The DaVinci system can brighten your teeth from five to fourteen shades for dazzling brightness. You can see your results as soon as you finish treatment. Your session can take 15 to 60 minutes, depending on the level of staining and your desired results.

IS THERE ANY DOWNTIME WITH TEETH WHITENING?

The LED cold laser and proprietary all-natural gel protect your teeth and gums from irritation or sensitivity. Any tooth sensitivity will go away within 24 to 48 hours. You can return to work or other activities after your appointment without any limitations. 

AM I A CANDIDATE FOR TEETH WHITENING?

If you feel unhappy with the shade of your teeth, DaVinci teeth whitening can help. You may be a good candidate if you want to brighten your teeth quickly and understand how to maintain your results. If you have had an extreme sensitivity to teeth whitening agents in the past, discuss this during your consultation.
