We’ll need to carefully examine your mouth and review your overall health history before we can make any recommendations. If we find that you are a good candidate for teeth whitening, we can work with you to create a treatment plan that takes your unique needs into account.

How Does Teeth Whitening Work?

In-office and take-home teeth whitening involve different steps, but they can both yield dazzling results. Here are the basics of what you need to know about our two whitening options:

Take-Home Teeth Whitening

With a take-home whitening kit, you can brighten your smile while relaxing at home. Our whitening kits contain a powerful bleaching gel and customized whitening trays. You simply need to fill the trays with the gel and wear them for a set amount of time each day. After about two weeks, you’ll notice a significant difference in the brightness of your smile.

In-Office Teeth Whitening

During an in-office whitening treatment, a powerful bleaching gel is applied to your teeth in order to get rid of the stains that have been bothering you. The procedure is relatively quick and can often be completed in less than an hour; this makes it an excellent option for those who want to quickly whiten their smiles for an upcoming event.  

Tips for Maintaining Your Brighter Smile

It’s only natural to want to do everything you can to make sure that the results of your teeth whitening treatment last as long as possible. As such, here are some tips that can keep your smile looking bright in the long term:

  • Be careful about what you eat or drink. Dark-colored foods and beverages such as coffee, soda, tomato sauce, and blueberries could easily cause new stains to appear on your teeth.
  • Keep your smile clean. Brushing at least twice a day can go a long way toward protecting your enamel from surface stains.
  • Visit your dentist twice a year. They can clean and polish your teeth in order to keep them looking their best.
