Your Teeth Whitening Questions, Answered
-
Teeth Whitening is a cosmetic treatment that uses a professionally formulated whitening gel developed specifically by The Coco Blanc Teeth Whitening. The formula features plant- and mineral-based ingredients designed to support enamel health while enhancing brightness. Studies have shown that the active components in the whitening system are both safe and effective when used as directed. All products and equipment used in our treatments are FDA approved and trusted within the dental and cosmetic industries. This whitening process does not change or harm the natural structure of the teeth—it gently reduces the appearance of long-standing surface stains to reveal a noticeably whiter, more radiant smile.

Bare and Bright is committed to delivering noticeable whitening results while prioritizing client comfort. Our top priority is achieving beautiful results with minimal to no sensitivity. Our signature whitening gel is formulated with naturally derived ingredients, allowing for a comfortable experience that most clients find gentle and pain-free. The plant- and mineral-based components in our system help reduce sensitivity.
While the majority of clients experience little to no sensitivity, a small number may notice mild, temporary tooth sensitivity. This is more common for those who are dehydrated, have a long-term history of sensitivity, or consume very hot or cold foods and beverages within a few hours following treatment. Any sensitivity is typically short-lived and resolves within 24–48 hours.
Clients with a known history of tooth sensitivity are encouraged to schedule our Sensitivity Treatment. This option includes a gentler whitening approach with an in-office remineralization treatment, along with a take-home sensitivity aftercare kit for continued comfort.

Cosmetic teeth whitening is not a substitute for regular dental care. Routine dental cleanings are not only recommended—they’re strongly encouraged. Please continue to schedule and maintain visits with your dentist at least every six months to ensure your teeth, gums, and overall oral health remain in good condition. A healthy mouth creates the best foundation for optimal teeth whitening results.

Yes, our teeth whitening treatment can help remove surface staining from existing dental work, restoring it to its original color. Our goal is to refresh your dental work while whitening your natural teeth to create a more even, cohesive smile. However, dental restorations cannot be whitened beyond the original shade of the material used at the time of placement. If the dental work is not within your smile line, this typically isn’t a concern, as it won’t be visible.
