You will be here for 60-90 minutes watching Netflix or napping in triple passed medical chairs leaned back. We stop to reapply.

If you already have sensitivity, there is a possibility you may feel a little bit that night. You'd know if that's you because you have issues with cold drinks, ice cream or if any other whitening caused sensitivity even strips. But only about 2-4 people a year with those had pre-exsisting sensitive teeth feel it a bit. Use sensodyne tooth paste weeks leading to appointment if that's you. Don't brush hard days leading into appointment.

I guarantee 4-6 shades in one session. It varies on your current color, teeth health, genetics, if they are surface stains or deep stains. For new clients, about half are happy with one initial session for it to brighten as much as desired. The other half may need a second session which you can get wiithin 2-4 weeks after first one. Maintenance is low as most clients return once a year or every 6 month.

You come back to oxidize stains you accumulate as a maintenance. I tell clients to come back when they notice stains accumulate again, that could be every 6 months or once a year .

I recommend getting it done 1 month or closer before first event such as a shoot or bridal shower etc. That way in case you need a second session for the big day you have time in between. 2 weeks+ before the event is recommended for final session.

*If you don’t require 2 sessions than you may just be able to do one.

The only prep care is making sure to schedule it according to being able to follow the 24 hr food guide and to come with brushed teeth (if not I have something to self brush when you arrive). Don’t brush hard days leading up to appointment.

POST CARE- Your teeth pores stay open for 24 hrs after, think of it like a sponge. The peroxide keeps working so add 1 additional shade whitener overnight to result.

Don’t eat and drink colored things. Also no blue toothpaste or smoking.

What you can eat examples:

Drinks - water,sprite,white liquor,white wine,milky drinks.

Food -chicken, fish/shrimp, breads, plain pastas, breads, egg whites, rice, mashed potato/fries, light cheese, etc. Nothing red, green or too brown.

According to the American Pregnancy Association, cosmetic treatments that are not necessary, such as teeth whitening, hair coloring, nail acrylic, or various cosmetic chemicals- are suggested to be postponed. The ADA leaves it up to the woman and her health professional. The gentle peroxide used in our bleaching is not likely to pose a great risk for your baby and usually approved by your doctor but PLEASE do check with your doctor before booking. Le Blanc Haus takes no responsibility for effects.

Every week I receive clients in this situation. A few scenarios you may be in, first one is you have a faux tooth on the front that is whiter than your natural teeth, great! This is ideal because it will help match your natural teeth color as close as possible to your faux one.

Scenario 2, crown/partial is the same or a bit darker than your teeth. Then your natural teeth will whiten, faux one won’t, & the faux one will be a bit more contrasting than the rest. BUT If you plan on getting a crown re done anyway then I do recommend coming in that way when they match the new one, it will be to your whitened teeth.

Scenario 3, you have 1 dark tooth probably from dead nerve caused by a hit years ago. Your pores are still intact & yes this will help make it brighter although by a tiny bit. Not everyone gets results, over 50% of clients with a dark tooth do see improvement with two sessions.

Send me pictures for a consult.

Those random white stains on teeth come from hypo-calcification or the loss of calcium in tooth enamel. It is super common to have, some are dots or lines. During whitening these spots that were already present will react and be 'extra' visible. Those 'spots' gradually will be less over the course of the day. Any form of whitening will cause that if you have those pre existing spots.
