For micro-needling, we use an electric pen device, that causes tiny injuries on the epidermis and dermis layers of the skin. It draws blood, triggering the body’s healing response. The body senses that there is a “wound,” and our red and white blood cells rush to the wounded site to heal it. The wound starts to fill with new tissue called granulation tissue. As the wounds are starting to heal, the edges of it are pulled together, creating the new collagen and elastin.

No, micro-needling does not hurt. We use atopical anaesthetic to numb the desired area being treated. The area is numbed for about a half an hour, then begin the second part of the procedure.

For microneedling, you will experience redness for a day, then you will notice your results. You will notice more effective results as the area starts to heal more and more everyday. This is because the area is now producing its collagen and elastin.

Just about anyone is a candidate for professional teeth whitening in Toronto. However, the following cases should be considered:

- You must be 18 years of age or older

- Have no cavities

- Teeth with any fillings on the front surface, crowns, root canal treated teeth or any restorations will not whiten. Only enamel (actual tooth structure) will whiten.

- White spots or white lines on teeth will not disappear with whitening.

We do everything we can to minimize sensitivity. The whitening gels contain an active ingredient which is commonly used in sensitive toothpaste. During the first 24 hours following whitening, some clients experience transient sensitivity. This sensitivity is usually mild and will subside in 1‐2 days. Under these circumstances, you may choose to stop the procedure at any given time and we can resume at another appointment.

If your teeth are sensitive after whitening, a mild analgesic such as Tylenol or Advil will usually be effective in making you more comfortable until your tooth sensitivity returns to normal.

What good is instant results if they don’t stay? In our 3-session package we use 2 different types of whitening gel. One that is stronger and works faster, and the other breaks down slower but makes your results last longer. We use these two products to get optimal, stabilized results.

Everybody is different. How long the whitening lasts depends on your diet, habits, and enamel make-up.

Following completion of cosmetic teeth whitening, pigments found in food and drinks, smoking, and pigments, called chromogenic bacteria, will re‐stain your teeth.

You may use daily whitening toothpaste, and it will also be in your best interest to tongue brush daily.

You will benefit from a touch up session in-office to freshen up and brighten your smile again.
