<----- Dentist I tend to agree with the above. Personally, the spas up here don't/can't offer whitening. I'd be interested to hear more about the details of the treatment if you happen to reply Mauro.
The dentist whitening is done either through zoom or britesmile. Both are brands of the same company since one got sued and was subsequently bought out. Britesmile has branches of its own outside dental offices and in spas. I haven't seen Zoom branches. The company that sells both does so in a way that dentists have to buy the equipment for one and lease it for the other. They are both great and run around 500 or so. There is also at home, tray whitening or strips. The trays are still a few hundred and work more slowly. They have different formulations (20%, 30%, etc.) and can work well. Crest strips also work well for the price but not as well as the higher strength tray treatments or the britesmile/zoom. If your teeth don't whiten much after the bleaching, it's because that's their natural color. If you were to get a veneer for example, they might recommend doing an at home kit and also the britesmile/zoom after just so you can be sure what the natural color is when they match. Enjoy.
