Whitening Kits and Sonicare are available through our office.

 

Whitening is a popular procedure to make teeth whiter and brighter, giving them a more attractive appearance. Beaching can be used to whiten stained and discolored teeth, or simply to enhance a dull smile. Either way, tooth whitening is safe and a relatively painless procedure, ideal for most patients. Our office offers two methods of whitening:  in-office whitening, and tray whitening.

 

In-office Whitening is ideal for anyone wanting immediate results. Because the entire process takes place in our office in about an hour, it is the perfect choice for busy individuals. In this procedure, a protective gel is applied to your gums to protect the soft tissue. A special light-activated gel is then applied to your teeth, and a special light or laser is used to enhance the action of the agent. Finally, we take impressions of your teeth to create custom trays for at-home touchups, and give you instructions for keeping your smile bright. The result is dramatically whiter teeth that will last for years.

 

Tray Whitening is a less expensive treatment you can use to gradually whiten your teeth while in the comfort of your own home. We will first take an impression of your teeth to create a customized clear tray that you will wear to whiten your teeth. Within a few days your trays will be ready to be picked up, and we will show you how to apply the special bleaching mateerial to the trays. The whitening gel trays should be worn 30-60 minutes up to twice a day. At the end of this period, you will see maximum whitening results that are nothing short of dazzling. Occasional treatment can be used at your convenience to maintain your new smile.
