Understanding Tooth Shade — The VITA Scale
Colour is tracked on the VITA scale — A1 at the light end through to C4 at the dark. Untreated teeth usually fall around A2–B3 in Langbank patients, with whitening moving them several grades lighter.
Response depends on the cause of the staining — surface and yellow discolouration whiten well, developmental and grey staining resist it, and any crowns or composite won't shift, so mismatches are worth discussing first.
Tooth Sensitivity and Aftercare
Some patients feel sensitivity during whitening, particularly in-chair. Using a potassium-nitrate or stannous-fluoride toothpaste for one to two weeks before treatment cuts this significantly, and a desensitising gel can be used between sessions.
Whitened enamel re-stains fastest in the first couple of days, so ease off coffee, tea and red wine. With sensible maintenance the shade holds for one to two years before a quick refresh.
