I’m a 58yr old female & had often thought of bleaching my teeth. I heard about a special they were having where the proceeds benefit the Smiles 4 Life childrens charity – perfect! Even w/the custom trays & bleaching syringes for maintenance, it was still lower than I’d ever been quoted in the past from other dentists for whitening alone. Usually the in-office procedure goes for $500-800! Okay – so, for the procedure itself. First a gum ‘barrier’ is placed onto your gums to prevent the bleach solution from coming into contact w/the gums. After that, two 20min bleaching sessions are applied. None of this hurts UNLESS the barrier comes loose which happened w/me in one small section. My gums were sensitive for about an hour after & then felt fine. However, the one thing that surprised me was what we referred to as ‘zingers’. For the first hour or so after the procedure, I & my daughter would get this shock-like sensation going through any one of our front teeth for about 2-3 seconds, then go away. After the first hour, the frequency starts diminishing and should be completely gone in 3-5hrs. When all was said & done, I’d TOTALLY do this again. BUT,? since I got the custom trays also, I’ll only need to do maintenance now & then. Very worthwhile procedure & super friendly office. Highly recommend!
