Teeth whitening in Kelowna: enhance your smile.
Honce Dentistry offers comprehensive teeth whitening solutions tailored to your needs and preferences. In-office teeth whitening treatments and take-home kits empower you to achieve a whiter, brighter smile.
In-office teeth whitening
In-office whitening is a cosmetic dental procedure performed by experienced dental professionals. Your teeth shade is lightened using advanced light-accelerating treatments and high-quality whitening agents. Professional teeth whitening sessions typically last 40 minutes, and you can see noticeable results in just one visit.
Take-home whitening kits
Take-home whitening kits allow you to touch up your smile at your convenience. These kits include custom whitening trays and professional-grade whitening gel. The home trays are fitted to mold to your teeth, making teeth whitening easy and comfortable. The gel is specially formulated for whitening during the day or night.
Overcoming sensitivity concerns
You may have concerns about sensitivity associated with teeth whitening treatments. Rest assured, advanced whitening techniques minimize any discomfort and sensitivity during and after the procedure. The priority is to ensure your comfort and satisfaction throughout the whitening process.

Frequently asked questions about Teeth Whitening
Is teeth whitening safe for everyone?
While teeth whitening is generally safe for most individuals, it’s best to consult with dental professionals. This is crucial if you have underlying dental conditions or concerns.
Will teeth whitening cause sensitivity?
Some patients do experience temporary sensitivity during or after teeth whitening. However, advanced blue LED light-accelerated whitening is designed to minimize discomfort and reduce sensitivity.
How long will teeth whitening results last?
The longevity of teeth whitening depends on your habits and lifestyle. Diet, oral hygiene practices, red wine consumption and tobacco use may affect longevity. With proper maintenance and regular dental care, you can prolong the effects of teeth whitening from months to years.
Can I whiten my teeth if I have dental restorations such as crowns or veneers?
Teeth whitening treatments may not be effective on dental restorations. In such cases, alternative cosmetic solutions can address discolouration and enhance the appearance of your smile.
How often can I undergo teeth whitening treatments?
While there is no set limit to teeth whitening treatments, it’s essential to follow dental professionals’ recommendations. Overuse of whitening products can potentially harm tooth enamel and increase sensitivity.
Can I whiten my teeth if I have sensitive teeth or gum disease?
If you have sensitive teeth or gum disease, you may still be a candidate for teeth whitening. It’s crucial to have your oral health assessed to determine the most appropriate approach.
Will teeth whitening remove all stains from my teeth?
Teeth whitening can effectively remove surface stains. It may not address intrinsic stains or discolouration caused by genetics or medication. Dental professionals can assess your specific staining concerns and recommend options for achieving your desired results.
