FAQs

What length of appointment should I book (60-minute, 75-minute, 90-minute, or 105-minute)?

For first-timers or big goal-seekers, we recommend starting with the 90 or 105-minute treatment. Over years, stains can build up on your teeth due to colored foods, tobacco use, or general age-related staining. Your first whitening treatment typically requires slightly more exposure to break through these long-term buildup stains.

For returning guests and whitening pros, we recommend 60 or 75-minute cleaning & whitenings as a maintenance treatment to maintain your shine.

Why should I get a cleaning before I get my teeth whitened?

As our founder Dr. Tina, says, “You wouldn’t wax your car without getting it cleaned first”. The same applies to our teeth. Though our whitening will still get results, plaque and tartar buildup can reduce the effectiveness of your whitening treatment without a clean canvas. We recommend opting for one of our Cleaning & Whitening duos to reveal your best smile in one visit, or booking a standalone cleaning within one week of your whitening appointment.

Do you take insurance, HSA, or FSA?

Most insurance covers most or all of the cost of teeth cleanings. Whitenings are considered cosmetic and are not covered by insurance. If you purchase a Cleaning & Whitening, we will provide you with the relevant materials to submit your cleaning to your insurance for reimbursement.

See full insurance page for more information.

Please note that insurance is only applicable to our Cleanings & can also be applied to Cleaning & Whitening treatments, but the cost of the Whitening cannot be covered by insurance.

What makes The Gleamery different from my dentist?

The Gleamery is a dental boutique with licensed, expert Hygienists that provide teeth cleanings and whitenings tailored to our clients’ needs. Dr. Tina Nguyen, our Founder & supervising dentist, sets our standard of care, oversees our Hygiene team, and maintains a robust intake process to ensure all smiles are safe in our studios.

We remove many of the uncomfortable aspects of traditional dental care (drills, judgment, scheduling, cost) with convenience, affordability, and hospitality.

Our studios are designed with you in mind, and we offer teeth cleanings and whitenings in as little as 30 minutes to accommodate busy schedules. We offer same-day, evening, and weekend appointments; self-care should never be a burden.

During your treatment, if one of our Hygienists spots something they think should be reviewed by a dentist, we’ll refer you out to one of our local dental partners (whom we trust) for additional care. But your experience at The Gleamery is designed to be an experience in self-care. To us, smile-care = self-care.

What’s your late/cancellation policy?

Cancellations or reschedules within 24 hours of your appointment will incur the full cost of your appointment to your card on file.  We understand things come up - in the event this happens, if you reschedule and complete a new appointment within 7 days, the rescheduled appointment cost will be waived. We have a 5-minute grace period for late appointments - please be sure to fill out your forms before heading in so check-in can be a breeze.

Is teeth whitening safe?

In our hands, yes. Our licensed Hygienists follow strict safety protocols, and will customize the whitening treatment to your sensitivity (multiple whitening concentrations available) and preferences. We use a combination of ADA-approved, dentist-developed whitening products known for their safety and effectiveness. We combine these products with a complementary fluoride polish - effectively lifting your shade while strengthening and protecting your enamel.

What if I have crowns, veneers, or composites?

All of our cleaning treatments are totally suitable for clients who have had restorative dental work (crowns, veneers, etc.), but we recommend AirFlow cleanings for these in particular. Our teeth whitening is still very safe for usage on restorative material, but will only impact the shade of any natural teeth in your mouth.

How long will my teeth whitening results last after a session?

Whitening is a spectrum, and your whitest shade as well as your results will vary based on a lot of factors such as your skintone, lifestyle (smoking, consumption of staining foods, etc.), and genetics. Most of our results last somewhere between 3 to 6 months; your Hygienist will provide tips after your session on how to best maintain your smile and suggest when would be best to come back in for a touch-up.

If my teeth are sensitive after whitening, how long will it last?

While our whitening treatments are sensitivity-minded, if you experience or are prone to sensitivity it should go away in a couple days. Your Hygienist can provide you with tips as well as recommended products to help keep sensitivity at bay.

What results should I expect after a teeth whitening at The Gleamery?

Our whitening system is specifically designed for immediate results. If it's your first whitening session, we recommend a 60- or 90-minute whitening to see a strong shade lift (3+ shades). If you're a whitening pro and returning for a touch-up. a 30-minute whitening is optimal for a light shade lift to maintain your shade (best if paired with a cleaning).

Naturally, whitening results vary for every client based on a wide variety of factors - including age, coffee/tea/red wine consumption, smoking, and overall tooth enamel health. After your treatment, your Hygienist will discuss your whitening goals and craft a treatment plan to achieve your dream smile. No matter what - we guarantee that you will leave our studio happy and excited about your bright smile.

What happens if I have a cavity or another type of dental issue?

If one of our Hygienists spots an area that needs attention from a dentist (like a cavity), we’ll refer you out to one of our trusted local dental partners for additional care.

Can I whiten if pregnant or nursing?

Although teeth whitening is safe and ADA-approved, it is not recommended if pregnant or nursing.
