Professional Teeth Whitening: Brighten Your Smile

We believe a bright, confident smile is your best accessory. Over time, factors like coffee, tea, or natural aging can leave teeth looking dull or stained. Our professional whitening systems provide a safe, effective, and dramatic transformation compared to over-the-counter options.

The Problem: Stubborn Stains and Discoloration

Common causes for a duller smile include:

  • Daily consumption of staining beverages (coffee, tea, or red wine).
  • Tobacco use.
  • The natural thinning of tooth enamel over time.

The Solution: In-Office Whitening followed up with Customized Take-Home Whitening

We provide a professional-grade solution that allows you to whiten your teeth comfortably at home with superior results:

  1. In-Office Whitening: We perform in-office whitening using a higher strength whitening gel than any take-home whitening gel. This helps to jumpstart the whitening process. You are then sent home with a professional-strength take-home whitening gel to use in your custom fabricated professional whitening trays.
  2. Custom Fabricated Whitening Trays: We create highly accurate models of your teeth to fabricate custom professional plastic whitening trays. These ensure the gel stays in contact with your teeth and off your gums.
  3. Professional-Strength Whitening Gel: You will apply a professional-strength whitening gel into each tray.
  4. Flexible Routine: Simply wear the trays for a few hours each day—many of our patients find it easiest to wear them after dinner or while relaxing before bed.
  5. Dramatic Results: Most patients see a significant change in tooth color in just four to six weeks, resulting in a celebrity-caliber smile.

Modern tooth whitening systems are highly effective and have dramatic results. Many celebrities consistently whiten their teeth to improve their appearance.

Occasionally, patients may experience some gum or tooth sensitivity when using their trays. These symptoms subside when whitening is discontinued for several days.

Accelerated whitening is another option for some patients. This process can result in whiter, brighter teeth in just one office visit. Please consult with the doctor to see if this procedure may work for you.

Occasionally, teeth may be stained in a way that limits the effectiveness of tooth whitening. In those instances, porcelain veneers or crowns are an excellent alternative.
