Q: I’m planning to have a teeth whitening or bleaching treatment. I’d like to know if it is really effective.

A: Teeth whitening or teeth bleaching are effective. According to our Ontario Dentistry experts, we can do bleaching treatments effectively and efficiently. The results of this procedure varies from one patient to another.

Q: Are there any bleaching kit that I can buy over the counter or a kit made by dentists that I can just use at home?

A: There are available bleaching kits that are custom-made and those that you can buy over-the-counter. However, a bleaching solution that is made by a dentist is more recommended and effective than over-the-counter products. The bleaching system that is made by a dentist is customized for you, and there is control over the chemicals and solutions used so as not to irritate your gums.
