FAQs For Teeth Whitening
How does professional teeth whitening work?
We apply a powerful but safe whitening gel that breaks down stains on your enamel. It lifts discoloration without damaging your teeth.
Is teeth whitening safe?
Yes! When done professionally, teeth whitening is very safe. We monitor sensitivity and use high-quality formulas to protect your enamel.
Will whitening make my teeth sensitive?
Some patients experience mild sensitivity, but we offer products and strategies to minimize discomfort before, during, and after treatment.
How long do whitening results last?
With good oral care and occasional touch-ups, results can last for years. Custom trays make it easy to maintain your brighter smile.
Should I do in-office or take-home whitening?
It depends on your goals. In-office offers fast results, while take-home trays give more gradual whitening. Many patients choose both.
Can whitening remove all stains?
It removes most surface stains from coffee, wine, and tobacco. Deep internal stains may need veneers or other cosmetic treatments.
Is professional teeth whitening safe?
Yes! At Artistic Dentistry, we use carefully tested whitening gels from trusted sources to ensure your treatment is both safe and effective.
Will my teeth be sensitive after whitening?
Some patients experience temporary sensitivity, but our team will tailor your treatment and offer soothing strategies to keep you comfortable.
How long do teeth whitening results last?
With proper care and occasional touch-ups using your custom trays, results can last months or even years. We’re here to help you maintain your glow.
What’s the difference between in-office and at-home whitening?
In-office whitening gives you immediate results in about an hour. At-home trays are custom-made and great for gradual brightening or maintenance.
Can teeth whitening remove deep stains?
Yes! Professional whitening is designed to lift both surface stains and deeper discoloration that over-the-counter products can’t touch.
How white will my teeth get?
That depends on your enamel and lifestyle, but most patients see their smile brighten by several shades. We'll create a look that's natural and radiant.
How can I whiten my teeth?
We offer professional teeth whitening treatments that are more effective and safer than over-the-counter products.
Is it safe to whiten my teeth?
Yes, professional whitening is safe when supervised by your dentist.

I was with my former dentist for just shy of a decade and came upon Artistic Dentistry by way of a referral. Since day one, I have been more than pleased with my experience. From the transparency with pricing, helping me understand what to expect and why, to a general culture of respect and professionalism. Highly recommend.

Great professional service that included detailed explanations about my dental care and issues. My visit also included detailed explanations about insurance and a live call to Kelsey Dental so that I fully understood my coverage. How rare to receive such exemplary service at Artistic Dentistry. My cleaning was also relaxing and prompt. I am definitely a new convert!

I have been a patient here for 11 years and they do a great job. The staff is so friendly and concerned about my care. When I got cancer they took extra care to make sure everything they did worked with my treatment plan. They would fit me in when I had a window between my chemo therapy. It was great to have one less thing to worry about.

I brought my daughter here as a referral from her regular dentist, and we have now switched over to coming here regularly. They are so kind and patient and help you feel relaxed. They can get everything you need done right then and there. My daughter was so nervous, but they guided her through everything and answered all her questions without hesitation.

I have been a patient for about 3 years now, every visit I have had a fantastic experience. The staff is so friendly and helpful. For someone who is on the go, and works full time, they are extremely accommodating and understanding. I recently had cosmetic in office Zoom whitening to match my natural teeth to my 2 new veneer teeth. I highly recommend Dr. Nimri for cosmetic dental work!!
