How long do teeth whitening results last?

With proper care, limiting coffee, red wine, and tobacco, and keeping up with regular cleanings, professional whitening results typically last up to two years. Occasional touch-up treatments can extend your results even longer.

Is professional teeth whitening safe?

Yes. When performed by a licensed dentist using medical-grade bleaching agents, professional whitening is one of the safest cosmetic dental treatments available. Dr. Ajmo evaluates your enamel, gums, and any existing dental work before recommending a whitening plan.

Will teeth whitening hurt or cause sensitivity?

Some patients notice mild, temporary tooth sensitivity for a day or two after treatment. It typically resolves on its own, and we can recommend a desensitizing toothpaste or adjust your treatment strength if you’re prone to sensitive teeth.

Who isn’t a good candidate for teeth whitening?

Whitening isn’t recommended during pregnancy or nursing, and it won’t change the color of crowns, veneers, or bonding, only natural enamel. Patients with dark intrinsic staining or significant gum recession may get a better, longer-lasting result from porcelain veneers; ask us about that option if it sounds like you.

Does dental insurance cover teeth whitening?

Teeth whitening is considered a cosmetic treatment and typically isn’t covered by dental insurance. We offer an in-house savings plan and financing options to make treatment more affordable — ask our team for details at your consultation.

Your Whitening Options at Jupiter Dentistry

Contact Jupiter Dentistry today to explore your teeth whitening options. We'll recommend the best approach for your smile.

In-Office Laser Whitening

A light- or laser-activated treatment (such as Zoom) that can brighten teeth up to eight shades in about 45 minutes; our most popular option for patients who want dramatic results before an event.
In-Office Whitening Without a Light

A chemically activated in-office gel (such as Opalescence Boost) that skips the light entirely, making it a good fit for patients with sensitive teeth or gums.
Take-Home Custom Trays

Custom-fitted trays made from impressions of your teeth, filled with professional-strength gel and worn on your own schedule for a more gradual result you control at home.

Teeth Whitening Treatment Process

When you visit our Jupiter dental office for teeth whitening treatments, you can expect the following to happen during the whitening process:

Initial Consultation: You’ll meet with our dentists to go over your oral health and see if tooth whitening is best for you.
Teeth Cleaning: Our dental professionals will clean your teeth.
Protection: We’ll place a barrier (often a rubber dam or protective gel) around the gums to shield them.
Whitening Agent Application: A high-concentration peroxide gel is then applied to the teeth. This whitening gel is much stronger than the ones available in over-the-counter whitening products, such as teeth whitening strips.
Activation: Some whitening systems use a special light or laser to activate the peroxide gel and enhance its bleaching effect.
Rinse: After the desired shade is achieved, or once the maximum time has been reached, our dentist will rinse off the gel.

Whitening Before Veneers, Crowns, or Bonding

Crowns, veneers, and bonding are color-matched to your teeth and won’t whiten later. If you’re planning cosmetic or restorative work, whiten first. We’ll let your new shade settle for about two weeks, then match your restorations to your brighter smile. This approach is part of every smile design plan at Jupiter Dentistry. It also applies to cosmetic porcelain crowns and veneers.
