Professional in-chair whitening uses clinically proven methods under dental supervision, often delivering noticeable results in a single visit. It's tailored to your enamel and goals, and your dentist monitors sensitivity throughout.
Home whitening kits use custom or pre-formed trays with a gentler gel over several days or nights. They offer gradual brightening and can be a good follow-up after in-chair treatment to maintain results.
The best choice depends on how quickly you want results, your sensitivity, and your lifestyle. Your dentist will help you choose and ensure whitening is safe for your teeth.
