My dentist has a procedure that they do... it takes about 1 1/2 hours and costs $500.

Three parts to the procedure: Serious cleansing, the bleaching, and a protective layer for upkeep. Rinsing with an extra fluid (for an added $50) will keep it looking good - whatever. The system seems like it is geared for the seriously neglectful types. However, it's probably the safest way to go.

I spoke to Clark at X-Keys (he's a dentist who tells it like it is...lol). He mentioned that it was a great process, but you have to keep going back every two years for your teeth to stay good. I decided against it based on this point. :)
Hope this helps a little. :S

I had my teeth bleached at a Brite Smile location in NYC this past February. It cost $525.00 plus another $125.00 for the toothpaste and mouthwash to maintain the whiteness. My teeth are nice and white but are so damned sensitive now - a side effect I was not aware of til after the fact. They always hurt to the point where I actually regret having it done. But they look great so I guess that's all that matters.:P

For those of you with sensitivity problems, ask you dentist about using Fluroide on your teeth after your treatments. I bought a tube of Fluoride gel (1.1%) from my dentist that I use after I use my bleaching molds that I also got there. After you take the molds out and brush your teeth as usual, you then put the fluroide on your teeth for at least 5 minutes either with your finger or a small baby toothbrush. I swear to you, it takes all the sensitivity away.

I always brush my gums when I brush my teeth. Every now and then my gums will get abrasions. That's the only time I feel the discomfort while bleaching. My gums are very healthy, so usually I don't have any sensitivity.
