The Process

Results

Teeth Whitening gives dramatic results with a 90 minute appointment. Full results visible in 24 hours and that can last six months up to a year. Expect to see your smile lighten on average 2-8 shades without the sensitivity that white strips and take home trays can cause.  Follow our detailed aftercare instructions about how to care for your new smile and schedule a touch-up in 3-6 months. *Results Vary Per Client.

Post Care Treatment 

 

NOW THAT YOUR SMILE IS BRIGHTER, LET'S KEEP IT THAT WAY!

FIRST HOUR

Drink only water and don’t eat anything for one hour after your whitening treatment.

 

FIRST 24 HOURS

For the first 24 hours after whitening, do not to consume food or drinks that are likely to cause stains. Such as blueberries, tomato sauces, beets, carrots, red wine, coffee, tea, colas, etc. 

 

WHITE SPOTS ON TEETH

In some cases you may see white spots on certain areas on your teeth. These are typically caused by calcium deposits or very porous teeth. These will normally disappear within 24 hours.

 

WHITE SPOTS ON GUMS

Should you have any scrapes or cuts on your gums you may see some white spots and/or feel some sensitivity during your whitening session. These will normally disappear within 24 hours.

 

SENSITIVITY

A small percentage of people will have minor tooth and/or gum sensitivity. This normally dissipates within 30 minutes. If sensitivity persists, use a toothpaste developed for sensitivity.

 

TOUCH UP TREATMENTS

After your initial whitening session a 20-minute "touch-up" session every 6 to 12 months is recommended. 

 

TOUCH UP AT HOME

You can also purchase our whitening + aftercare gel and simply add to your toothpaste nightly to whiten and prevent restaining. 

Frequently Asked Questions about the At Home Whitening Kit and  Whitening Service

WHAT IS THE SHELF LIFE OF HOME WHITENING KITS? 

Our Whitening Kits can be kept for up to 24 months!

 

HOW DOES TEETH WHITENING ACTUALLY WORK? 

The whitening gel absorbs the LED light energy, which photo-chemically "excites" the peroxide molecules into breaking down faster. It provides "activating energy" that speeds up and improves the performance of whitening.   

 

The LED light activates the professional whitening gel upon contact to provide visible results in just 20 minutes.

 

Home Kit: Stick with it for 5 days and you’ll take your teeth up to 8 shades whiter.  

 

Mobile Studio Whitening treatment formula is slightly more potent than the at-home kit, removing built up stains and discoloration in under an hour.  

 

HOW LONG IS A WHITENING SESSION? 

The entire Teeth Whitening appointment is approx 90 min, with the actual LED whitening in two 20 Minute sessions.

 

IS WHITENING SAFE FOR SENSITIVE TEETH? WILL MY TEETH AND GUMS BE IN PAIN AFTER?

Expect little to no sensitivity; it was formulated with sensitive teeth in mind. It’s safe on enamel, protects gums, causes little to no sensitivity, and is a registered natural health product. A very small percentage of people will have minor discomfort in their mouth and this normally dissipates within 10 minutes.

 

WHAT DOES IT TASTE LIKE?

Fresh, minty and lightly sweet! The whitening gel will not make much contact with your tongue (it's ok if it does) so you likely won't notice a taste of the gel at all.

 

 

WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT FROM OTHER WHITENING TREATMENTS?

Aloha Glow is different from other whitening options in several ways: it’s safe on enamel, protects gums, causes little to no sensitivity, is a registered natural health product and on top of all that, it’s more cost-effective. One at-home whitening kit or at-home Mobile Whitening Session is the equivalent in whitening power to 50 tubes of whitening toothpaste, 25 dental whitening syringes and 5 packages of strips! 

 

CAN I DO TEETH WHITENING DURING PREGNANCY?

We recommend that you contact your physician prior to using whitening while pregnant. However, no government issued restrictions currently exist.

 

WHAT IS THE MINIMUM AGE RESTRICTION TO HAVE AN WHITENING TREATMENT?

The recommended minimum age to use is 12. If you're unsure, please check with your dentist.

 

CAN I DO A WHITENING SERVICE IF I HAVE GINGIVITIS?

If you have gingivitis or any periodontal disease you should consult with your dentist prior to whitening.

 

SHOULD I HAVE A CLEANING PRIOR TO WHITENING?

If possible, yes! And if you had not had a cleaning in the last 6 months, we highly recommend it.

 

CAN I HAVE MY TEETH WHITENED IF I HAVE CROWNS, CAPS OR VENEERS?

It is safe for crowns, caps, and veneers. Stains will be removed during whitening, returning to their original color.
