Even with diligent oral hygiene, most people experience yellowing or stains at some point in their lives, making teeth whitening one of the most common cosmetic dentistry treatments. Having stains on your teeth can make you feel self-conscious about your smile, whether they're the result of a daily cup of coffee with breakfast or simply getting older. Teeth whitening gives you a brighter smile and boosts your confidence, and it can even shave years off of your appearance!
In-Office Teeth Whitening
For the most dramatic results in the shortest amount of time, choose in-office teeth whitening treatments. After only one visit to our office, you'll notice a significant difference in your smile, with teeth up to 8 shades whiter. Your gums will be protected from irritation, then a carbide peroxide bleaching gel is applied directly to the surfaces of your teeth. Laser light technology activates the whitening agent to improve its efficacy.
At-Home Teeth Whitening
A take-home teeth whitening kit is an excellent option for patients who have minor discoloration or stains, or anyone who simply wishes to whiten their smile at home. You'll come to our office for impressions so we can make you a set of custom whitening trays to use with professional-grade carbide peroxide bleaching gel. We'll show you how to use your at-home whitening kit and tell you how long you should use it to get the results you want. You can use take-home whitening trays to maintain your in-office whitening procedure results.
Frequently Asked Questions About Teeth Whitening
What is the best whitener for your teeth?
Your dental needs, preferences, and lifestyle will determine which teeth whitener is ideal for you. In-office whitening is a good option for those who have severe stains or want to see improvements quickly. Take-home teeth whitening kits are a great choice for small stains or touch-ups between in-office whitening treatments.
Is teeth whitening harmful?
Professional teeth whitening from a dentist is safe and effective, so you don't have to worry about harming your gums or teeth. Even with a take-home whitening kit, your dentist will closely monitor your progress and provide instruction on how to properly use your trays to avoid discomfort and irritation.
How can I get white teeth in one day?
You can only get noticeably whiter teeth in a single day with in-office teeth whitening.
Can yellow teeth be whitened?
Yellow teeth can almost always be whitened with professional teeth whitening, but there are times when the discoloration comes from inside a tooth; this is called intrinsic staining. A veneer or bonding can improve the appearance of these teeth.
Can I get my teeth whitened if I have sensitive teeth?
If you have sensitive teeth and want to whiten them, your best option is professional teeth whitening. We can adjust your treatment to ensure your comfort.
