SPA on EPIC - Teeth Whitening

[Ta8633]

Has anyone ever used the Spa and got their teeth whitened? I am looking for how it went, were there any complications, would you do it again?

 

Thanks!:D

I'm sure they'll use accepted techniques and it'll look great.

 

BUT: Normal teeth whitening techniques require you to abstain from coffee, tea, red wine and other dark drinks for 24-48 hours after the treatment. Do you really want to have to watch what you eat and drink whilst you're on vacation?

 

In addition, I can promise you that a cruise ship's spa services, good as they might be, will cost at least 2-3 times what they would at a regular facility on land.

 

Were I in your position, I'd just get the teeth whitening done before I left home.

I haven't but I would highly recommend you stick with your trusted dental professional at home.

Don't do this on a ship or in a spa. Teeth whitening can cause MAJOR sensitivity...and you don't want that on a vacation! Get some Crest Whitestrips...they work WONDERS! Use Sensodyne while you're whitening.....

 

Nothing will whiten crowns or caps or any artificial tooth material.

These are all my thoughts. I was just wondering since they advertise so much. I will stick with the Crest whitestrips.

 

Thanks!

Cruise lines and Vegas casinos both push their spa services nonstop. In both cases, the spas are WAAAY overpriced for what you get.

I had it done on the Gem, and it burned the crap out of the inside of my lips. I admit to having very sensitive skin, but this was beyond anything I could have imagined to have happen.

Good Grief! No desire to have any sort of dental procedure while cruising. :rolleyes:

That means the technician was sloppy and didn't put vaseline on the inside of your lips and/or didn't put in a mouthpiece that held your lips far enough open. If the technician had known what he or she was doing, your unfortunate experience wouldn't have happened.
