Frequently Asked Questions
Is DaVinci Teeth Whitening for everyone?
The DaVinci Teeth Whitening System provides dramatic results for anyone who wants to whiten their teeth. This includes people with teeth that have been stained by substances such as coffee, tea, soda, smoking, etc. It will also lighten teeth stained by tetracycline, speckled by fluoride, or hereditary discoloration.
How long will the whitening last?
This varies from person to person and depends on your diet and lifestyle, but the effects usually last for one to three years with proper maintenance. Periodic touch-up treatments are recommended for customers who frequently consume products such as coffee, dark soda, tea, red wine, tomatoes sauce or other staining products such as tobacco.
Should I consider DaVinci Teeth Whitening?
Studies have shown that people with whiter teeth look younger and that there is a correlation between high self-esteem and a bright, confident smile.
Is DaVinci Teeth Whitening safe?
Yes, our products are made in our USA laboratories and are FDA compliant. Scientific research has shown that the active ingredients in the DaVinci Teeth Whitening Gels are safe and effective for cosmetic teeth whitening. The DaVinci Teeth Whitening Gel does not change or damage the structure of the teeth; it merely lifts and removes the stains, making your teeth brighter.
Does it hurt?
Most clients experience no sensitivity during or after the session. A very small percentage of clients may feel some sensitivity on the teeth or soft tissues, especially if they consume very cold or hot foods or drinks within two hours after the treatment. Therefore it is recommended that clients avoid consuming extremely hot or cold food or beverages for the first two hours following the treatment. Any sensitivity is usually gone within 24 hours.
How white will my teeth get?
After whitening with the DaVinci Teeth Whitening System, teeth shades brighten an average of five to 14 shades on the Teeth Shade Card. Although individual results will depend on how discolored the teeth were originally, the end result will be brighter, shiny teeth. Remember, everyone’s teeth are different and your teeth will only go as white as your teeth will go. Everyone’s teeth have a stopping point.
How long does a whitening session take?
One whitening session takes 3 rounds of 20 minutes to complete. Depending on the level of discoloration of your teeth you may choose a 4th 20 minute session. Start to finish your whitening session will take 60- 80 minutes. It takes no longer than the time it would for you to have a haircut or a facial - it is that simple!
Will DaVinci Teeth Whitening work on crowns, fillings, veneers, and bridges (composite materials)?
DaVinci teeth whitening will remove staining from composite materials but will not whiten the composite materials beyond the original color of the material used. DaVinci teeth whitening works well if your natural teeth are darker than the composite materials original color. Teeth whitening is a good option if you plan to replace the crown or filling after your whitening treatment. DaVinci Teeth Whitening will not damage or hurt the composite material.
What is the difference between DaVinci Teeth Whitening and teeth whitening performed in the dental office?
The DaVinci Teeth Whitening System uses the same technology used by other teeth whitening providers for in-office whitening and gives you great results. However, our process has been simplified so that you can administer the process yourself using our cosmetic whitening gel specially developed for the use with the LED light. Designed with the comfort and safety of the customer in mind; our process is safe, gentle, and produces superior results over other teeth whitening options.
