I first did a virtual consult with Dr. Lippe & was impressed with the time & thought that she put into responding back to me. Setting up my appointment was easy with Patti & as The Gorman Center’s office manager, she is absolutely wonderful, friendly, knowledgeable & puts you at ease. Dr. Lippe, Cassandra, Sarah & Robert are so thorough & friendly. After meeting each of them, I knew I had chosen the right practice. I travel 1 1/2 hours for each appointment & it is so worth it. Dr. Lippe is truly the best in her field! I trusted her & the whole team completely and am so glad I found them! They are passionate & they care!! And, they do beautiful work!

Truly a fantastic experience all around. They are a center of FINE dentistry. Dr. Lippe is tops. When my primary dentist offered to shave down a tooth because of a chip, I saw Dr. Lippe because my wife said I have to go here because they do such great work. I'm so glad I did. Dr. Lippe took a close look at the tooth, how much space was available and offered to fix the chip rather than shave the tooth. Thank you Dr. Lippe and Robert for all you do!

FAQs about Professional Teeth Whitening in Minneapolis

Answered by our cosmetic dentist, Dr. Lippe!

Is teeth whitening bad for your teeth?

No, professional teeth whitening is safe and doesn’t damage your teeth.
Tooth sensitivity and gum irritation are two common side effects, but those are temporary and should subside within 48 hours.
 

Does teeth whitening hurt?

A common side effect of whitening your teeth is tooth sensitivity to hot and cold temperatures.
This happens more often with over-the-counter products (whitening strips, etc.) because they’re one-size-fits-all.
However, with professional teeth whitening, we adjust your treatment to minimize the possibility of tooth sensitivity. Dr. Gorman also offers Philip Zoom’s recovery gel to relieve symptoms.

How long does teeth whitening last?

Teeth whitening results last anywhere between a few months to a few years.
Here are some reasons why your white smile might fade over time

  • Consuming stain-causing foods and drinks
  • Smoking
  • Not maintaining proper oral hygiene
     

To keep your smile white for as long as possible, try:

  • Avoiding stain-causing foods and drinks
  • Drinking water after eating and drinking
  • Getting regular dental cleanings
  • Using a whitening toothpaste
  • Replacing your toothbrush every three months

What is better, in-office or take-home?

Most of our patients prefer the in-office method because it gives instant results.
However, take-home trays are a great option if you’d like to whiten your smile gradually.

You can also use the at-home kit to maintain your white results year-round. Use the trays for one or two days, once or twice per year.

Can I whiten my teeth in one day?

With Philips Zoom teeth whitening, you can.
It uses professional-grade bleaching gel and blue light to accelerate the whitening process. In just one appointment, you can whiten your smile up to eight shades lighter.

It’s the perfect option if you have a big event coming up, like a wedding or graduation.
