When Will I See Results From Teeth Whitening?

In this video, Dr. Chris Powell explains teeth whitening options, from 1-hour in-office treatments for quick results to take-home kits for gradual whitening.

If you’re considering whitening your teeth, the speed at which you see results can vary depending on the method you choose. For those looking for immediate results, an in-office whitening session, such as a 1-hour Zoom treatment, can dramatically whiten your teeth to their fullest natural whiteness within just an hour. This option is ideal if you need quick results for an upcoming event or if you prefer not to deal with at-home applications.
On the other hand, if you opt for a take-home whitening kit, the process is a bit more gradual. Typically, it takes about five to seven days to reach full whiteness, depending on your initial tooth color and how diligently you follow the treatment plan. The take-home trays are custom-made to fit your teeth perfectly, ensuring even coverage and effective whitening.
Both options are effective, so your choice depends on your personal preference and how quickly you need results. If you have a week and prefer the convenience of whitening your teeth at home, the take-home trays are a great choice. Feel free to come in and we can discuss the best whitening strategy for you and get started on achieving a brighter, whiter smile.
