Start Your Journey to a Brighter Smile

Because having whiter teeth has become the number one aesthetic concern of most patients, there are several ways to whiten teeth. The most popular method is using a home teeth whitening system monitored closely by our dental team on an outpatient basis. Since teeth whitening only works on natural tooth enamel, it is essential to have a licensed dental hygienist evaluate the replacement of any old fillings, crowns, etc., and to apply the whitening treatment. Replacement of restorations will be done after bleaching to match the newly bleached teeth. Teeth whitening is not permanent. Depending on your lifestyle and eating habits, a touch-up may be needed every several years.

  • Fluorosis (excessive fluoridation during tooth development).
  • Normal wear of outer tooth layer.

What Does Teeth Whitening Involve?

This type of teeth whitening usually requires two visits.

Your First Appointment

We will take impressions (molds) of your teeth to fabricate custom, clear plastic trays.

Your Second Appointment

You wil try on the trays to determine the proper fit, and we will make adjustments if necessary. The trays are worn with a special whitening solution either twice a day for 30 minutes or overnight for a couple of weeks. 

It is normal to experience tooth sensitivity when whitening your teeth, and it should subside after you have stopped bleaching. Our team will offer you aftercare instructions to ensure that you maintain a beautiful, healthy white smile.
