Each DAZZLING SMILES™ client is questioned prior to their session to determine the current condition of their oral health and other pertinent questions. If the client reports gum disease, recent extractions, pregnancy, certain allergies, photosensitivity, or is taking photosensitive medication, etc. then, DAZZLING SMILES™ technicians will refuse to proceed with the session. DAZZLING SMILES™ whitening agents are formulated within the most effective yet safest limits for cosmetic procedures.

Q. How long does the DAZZLING SMILES™ tooth whitening session take?
A. DAZZLING SMILES™ sessions typically take only 20 minutes.
Q. What results should I expect from a DAZZLING SMILES™ tooth whitening session?
A. Invariably whitening takes place with virtually all clients. The ultimate results are strictly a function of the severity of the pre-session level of discoloration. The development of discoloration may have occurred over many years and in some cases of intense and very deeply discolored teeth several sequenced sessions may be required to achieve the maximum whiteness that your genetic traits allow. For clients with the most severe discoloration, who are attempting to gain the greatest tooth shade improvement their genetics allow, we have developed discounted multi-session package plans. Permanently discolored teeth caused by medication such as tetracycline and fluoride may be another issue to discuss with the DAZZLING SMILES™ technician.

Q. How long will the DAZZLING SMILES™ tooth whitening effects last?
A. Clients using the DAZZLING SMILES™ tooth whitening session have reported results lasting up to two years or more. The introduction of staining materials to the teeth and/or poor brushing habits can decrease the length of time that significant treatment effects are noticed. Regular use of either the DAZZLING SMILES ESCORT I™ or the DAZZLING SMILES ESCORT I™ take anywhere maintenance pens, can dramatically extend the results. Clients that drink coffee, tea, red wine or smoke often schedule additional treatments every 6 months or so to maintain and further enhance their DAZZLING SMILE.

Q. Who can benefit from a DAZZLING SMILES™tooth whitening session?
A. Virtually anyone may benefit from the DAZZLING SMILES™ tooth whitening session with some limited exceptions. Teeth that have been discolored from tetracycline or those that have increased porosity from excessive fluorides have limited response from any tooth whitening treatment. Clients reporting gum disease, recent extractions, certain allergies, photosensitivity or taking photosensitive medication or pregnancy will be refused services. Clients under the age of 18 years of age will only be granted services with parental/legal guardian permission. Absolutely no one under the age of 16 will be allowed to receive a whitening session under any circumstances.

Q. Will a DAZZLING SMILES™ tooth whitening session whiten my crowns, dentures, bridges or veneers, etc.?
A. DAZZLING SMILES™ sessions may remove stains present on the surface of these prosthetics returning them to their original color but cannot whiten them beyond the point of their original color. Discrimination should be exercised by the client as the DAZZLING SMILES™ session may whiten surrounding natural teeth to a lighter color than that chosen for the prosthetics when placed in the mouth by their dentist. The DAZZLING SMILES ESCORT™, pens provide a perfect answer to this situation.

Q. May I eat or drink immediately following receiving a DAZZLING SMILES™ tooth whitening session?
A. Absolutely however, the first 3-4 hours following a DAZZLING SMILES™ session is critical. The teeth are most susceptible to re-staining during this period. Introduction of staining sources should be avoided if at all possible during the critical period. Our process will continue to whiten teeth for up to 24 hours following completion of the treatment thus yielding an additional one-half to one full shade or more in additional whiteness. Clients that follow the protocol and avoid re-staining sources for 24 hours report the greatest post-session enhancements. Consuming coffee, tea, tobacco, red wine, or any foods that contain dyes and artificial colors such as sodas, candy or chips with dyes, will forestall the post-treatment whitening process. The best rule of thumb is if it will stain a white T-shirt, it will stain your teeth.
