Whitening can look simple—until results are uneven or don’t last as expected.



Reason #1: enamel condition and sensitivity

If enamel is worn or sensitive, results can look patchy.

We check suitability before advising.


Reason #2: habits that keep staining

Coffee, tea, and smoking can keep staining after treatment.


Reason #3: choosing the wrong approach

Different whitening methods suit different cases.

A plan matched to you improves outcomes.
