The SunnaSmile gel absorbs the LED light energy, which photo-chemically "excites" the peroxide molecules into breaking down faster. It provides "activating energy" that speeds up and improves the performance of whitening.

The SunnaSmile LED light activates the professional whitening gel upon contact to provide visible results in just 20 minutes. Stick with it for 5 days and you’ll take your teeth up to 8 shades whiter. The SunnaSmile in-studio treatment formula is slightly more potent than the at-home kit, removing years of built up stains and discolouration in just 15 minutes.

Our SunnaSmile At-Home Whitening Kits can be kept for up to 24 months!

Results will vary from client to client depending on a number of factors, including age, original tooth colour, oral hygiene, and lifestyle habits. The best way to ensure lasting results is to practice good oral hygiene (having your teeth professionally cleaned regularly, brushing and flossing), and avoid staining habits (such as smoking) and foods/drinks that are dark in colour and high in acidity such as coffee, red wine, berries, tomato sauce, etc. If these are some of your favourite things, we recommend the SunnaSmile Home Kit to conveniently maintain ongoing stain-removal.

An In-Studio session is 40 minutes behind the light, however, your appointment will take approximately 60 minutes with the prep and post-care. With the SunnaSmile Home Kit you whiten for 10-20 minutes per day.

Expect little to no sensitivity after using SunnaSmile; it was formulated with sensitive teeth in mind. It’s safe on enamel, protects gums, causes little to no sensitivity, and is a registered natural health product. A very small percentage of people will have minor discomfort in their mouth and this normally dissipates within 10 minutes.

Yes! Additional treatments may be booked as close together as 24 hours - this is only encouraged as long as you are not experiencing any sensitivity.

SunnaSmile is safe for crowns, caps and veneers, and stains will be removed during whitening, returning to their original colour (for obvious reasons, it cannot whiten beyond the original colour).

Fresh, minty and lightly sweet! SunnaSmile whitening gel will not make much contact with your tongue (it's okay if it does) so you likely won't notice a taste to the gel at all.

SunnaSmile is different from other whitening options in several ways: it’s safe on enamel, protects gums, causes little to no-sensitivity, is a registered natural health product and on top of all that, it’s more cost-effective. One SunnaSmile at-home whitening kit is the equivalent in whitening power to 50 tubes of whitening toothpaste, 25 dental whitening syringes and 5 packages of strips!

We recommend that you contact your physician prior to using whitening while pregnant. However, no government issued restrictions currently exist.

The recommended minimum age to use SunnaSmile is 12. If you're unsure, please check with your dentist. Anyone under the age of 16 require parental consent.

If you have gingivitis or any periodontal disease you should consult with your dentist prior to whitening.

If possible, yes! And if you had not had a cleaning in the last 6 months, we highly recommend it.

All teeth are different due to body chemistry, genetics, dental health, and mineral imbalances. Tetracycline stains cannot be removed and dark gray shaded teeth will only brighten vs. whiten regardless of what kind of whitening treatment you try. Overall, 99% of our clients experience success.

No prep is needed for this procedure. Feel free to bring some head phones to relax with your music or listen to an audio book while having your teeth whitening done. I have a speaker playing music in the studio.
