What Is Professional Teeth Whitening?

Unlike over-the-counter kits, professional whitening uses clinically proven bleaching agents and advanced delivery systems to remove deep stains from enamel.

  • Brightens teeth by about two shades
  • Customized to your goals and sensitivity level
  • Protects gums and tooth structure during treatment

For many patients, whitening is the quickest, most cost-effective way to refresh their smile.

Benefits of Whitening

  • Safe & Comfortable – Custom-fitted trays ensure proper application
  • Customized Care – Treatment intensity is tailored to your needs.
  • Lasting Impact – Results can last years with proper care and touch-ups.
  • Confidence Boost – Perfect for special occasions or professional settings.

Whitening Options We Offer

  • Custom Take-Home Trays – Gradual whitening with trays molded to your teeth for even coverage.

The Whitening Process

  1. Consultation & Shade Match – Assess current tooth color and whitening goals.
  2. Impressions – We take impressions of your upper and lower teeth and fabricate custom trays that you can continue to reuse as needed.
  3. Whitening instructions – We deliver and check the fit of your trays and give you instructions for use.
  4. Results – You whiten at home and get results. You can also get refills of the bleach solution at cost from us as needed and continue to use your trays for years to come.

Am I a Candidate?

Most patients with healthy teeth and gums are great candidates. Whitening works best for:

  • Yellow or brown stains from coffee, tea, wine, or smoking
  • Age-related discoloration
  • Patients without major restorations on front teeth

Note: Gray or blue-tinted stains may not respond as well, and restorations (like crowns or fillings) won’t whiten.

Cost & Value

  • Custom Take-Home Trays and first set of whitening product: $250

Maintaining Your Results

  • Avoid dark foods and drinks for the first 24–48 hours (“white diet”).
  • Use a straw for beverages like coffee or tea.
  • Rinse with water after stain-causing foods.
  • Maintain excellent brushing, flossing, and dental cleanings.
  • Schedule periodic touch-ups to keep your smile bright.
