Things To Know About Our Teeth Whitening Services
It's safe, quick, and inexpensive.
Before starting the teeth whitening process, you'll have moments thinking about how this stuff works. If at any concerns, you can let us know if you want to whiten your teeth at any appointment. Our teeth whitening dentist can advise you about your situation. You can lighten only your upper teeth or both the upper and lower, depending on how much you show when you talk and smile.
In only a day or two, your custom bleach splints will be ready for you to pick up. We provide you with a special bleaching agent that you put into the clear splints. With only a few hours of daily wear, our special bleaching agent bubbles stains right out of your enamel in a short time without altering tooth structure or existing dental work. Only occasional treatment is needed to maintain your new smile when your teeth reach the desired brightness. We'll want to take "after" photos at your next appointment.

What is Dental Bleaching?
Dental bleaching can be used to correct tooth discoloration. Discolorations can be caused by staining, aging, or chemical damage to teeth. We can offer a safe method for creating a beautiful "brilliant" smile using the latest bleaching technology. In cases of extreme tooth discoloration, crowns or veneers may be the only choice. Still, because of the low cost of bleaching treatments, bleaching is nearly always worth a solid try.

How is our teeth whitening service done?
An impression is taken to make a specialized "mouthguard" or "stent" to hold the bleach against the teeth. The material is used each night for about 3-4 hours for a week or two, and significant whitening will occur at the end of this time. In some cases, the change is nothing short of brilliant. For confidence in appearance, bleaching technology allows us to promise improvements in yellowing, aging, or stained teeth.
Summary of The Benefits of Teeth Whitening
- Corrects brown, yellow, and spotted tooth staining
- Works on people of any age
- It is a near-permanent solution for a "dull" smile, restoring brightness and bringing a smile alive
Considerations for Teeth Whitening
Over-the-counter bleaching agents are available for purchase at drug stores and pharmacies. However, since these products can cause harm to the gums and teeth, it's better to use products that our practice recommends.
