How Long Should My New Smile Last After Teeth Whitening
When investing in just about anything we consider the lifetime value or at least help manage our expectations on how the product or service should last and this is true for teeth whitening.
It does not matter how much you pay for a product or service you enter in that agreement you get a feeling on how long it should last for you.
With teeth whitening the challenge is that the teeth remain porous and therefore the things which are staining your teeth be-it tea, coffee, wine, blackcurrant, curries etc will continue to stain the teeth after you have had them whitened so it is important for customers to recognise this important fact.
With home kits customers typically pay less money and therefore for twenty to thirty pounds customers are not expecting miracles and will expect to re purchase these home kits repeatedly to maintain the results. Sometimes it can take six to ten weeks for the home kits to work at all and many customers give up after a couple of times of usage and never finish the complete program.
For these customers who actually finish the program then with some good results re-purchasing another kit will naturally happen.
For bleaching trays the whole premise is sold under the pretence that the bleaching product used will get re-ordered in the future to maintain the results going forward and help keep the teeth looking white and bright.
When purchasing the trays the majority of the cost in the dentist taking an impression and then the laboratory making the trays to suit the recipients teeth. When you have finished the initial fourteen day course then the gel can be re-ordered from the original supplying dentist or the internet places like ebay for example are selling supplies of gel for the trays.
With the laser teeth whitening treatments this becomes a little more complex. Customers like the laser system because it is quick and offers instant results. Because everybody’s teeth are different and the rate of absorbency changes from person to person it is difficult to predict how long the results will last and therefore this needs to conveyed to anyone considering a treatment or at least offer a solution should the results not last as long as expected.
These solutions can range from using a home kit every few weeks after the initial treatment to help maintain the results. This way you benefit from the instant impact and convenience of the laser system but have a way of keeping the teeth looking bright and beautiful.
The absolute best way is a hybrid of laser and bleaching trays as these are stronger than the home kits so using a bleaching tray a few times during the year after the laser whitening treatment will help keeping the teeth looking white.
Some companies do not make people aware of this and therefore run the risk of customers being disappointed but the more professional organisations will advise customers of this and help customers understand that teeth whitening is an ongoing activity as we fight the staining components that enter our mouth daily!
