Having a beautiful smile may be even easier than you think. Many people achieve the look they’ve been dreaming of with our simple “whitening” procedure.

It's safe, quick, and inexpensive. Just let us know at any appointment if you would like to begin whitening. You can lighten only your upper teeth or both the upper and lower, depending on how much of each shows when you talk and smile.

In only a day or two your custom whitening trays will be ready for you to pick up. We provide you with a special teeth whitening agent that you put into the clear, almost invisible trays. With only one hour of wear per day, our special whitening agent bubbles stains right out of your enamel in a very short time without altering tooth structure or existing dental work in any way. When your teeth reach the brightness you want, only occasional treatment is needed to maintain your new smile.

Dental whitening can be used to correct many tooth discolorations. These discolorations may have been caused by staining, aging, or chemical damage to teeth. Using the latest in whitening technology, we can offer a safe method for creating a beautiful, "brilliant" smile. In cases of extreme tooth discoloration, crowns or veneers may be the only choice. But because of the low cost of whitening treatments, teeth whitening is nearly always worth a solid try.

How is it done?

An impression is taken to make a specialized "mouthguard" or "tray" to hold the material against the teeth. The material is used each day for 1 hour for 7 to 10 days, after which significant whitening will occur. In some cases, the change is nothing short of brilliant. For confidence in appearance, whitening technology offers improvements in yellowing, aging or stained teeth. For very severely stained teeth, crowns or veneers may be more appropriate.

Considerations

Key Benefits

  • Corrects brown, yellow and mottled tooth staining.
  • Is a near permanent solution for a "dull" smile, restoring brightness and bringing a smile alive.

Over-the-counter whitening agents are available at drug stores and pharmacies. However, since these products can harm the gums and teeth, it's better to use products that our practice recommends.
