Frequently asked questions
How is masking different from whitening?
Whitening lightens the tooth itself; masking covers stains that whitening can't shift, such as fluorosis or deep internal discolouration.
How long does teeth masking last?
Typically several years with good care. Avoid excessive coffee, tea, and tobacco to keep it looking fresh.
