Is Whitening Safe?
Teeth whitening has been performed safely and effectively for years and continues to increase in popularity. Significant research has shown that whitening has no adverse effects on the teeth. Additionally, we use American Dental Association approved products.
Sensitivity to hot and cold food or beverages is common during the first few applications of whitening and is temporary.
How Do I Get Started?
Teeth Whitening appointments
can be done at your home,
place of business or our office.
All you need is about 30 free
minutes to get the process started.
1. Impressions will be taken of your teeth. The imprint will be used to make the custom-fit trays that hold the whitening gel. These trays are designed for only your unique mouth, making for a snug and comfortable fit.
2. We will provide you with your
custom-fit trays and professional whitening gel and detailed instructions on the amount of gel to use and the proper care for your new trays.
3. A touch-up application can be performed as needed to maintain the maximum whiteness.
Are You a Candidate?
Tooth color is largely a matter of inherited tendencies. The most common reason of tooth discoloration is from smoking, coffee, tea red wine etc. Some of us are born with the tendency for lighter teeth and some teeth respond better to whitening than others.
The following stains can be effectively whitened:
• Coffee / tea / soda
• Smoking
• Aging or hereditary stains
• Antibiotics (such as tetracycline)
Artificial dental work can be refreshed to the original shade but whitening is not effective on other dental work such as; crowns (caps), tooth-colored fillings and veneers . Whitening gel should only be used by those with healthy teeth and gums.
