If you have been looking for a simple way to enhance your smile, professional teeth whitening may be the ideal solution. This cosmetic treatment is designed to reduce the appearance of stains, yellowing and discoloration on the teeth, helping you achieve a noticeably whiter, more confident smile. Whether you have a special occasion coming up or simply want to refresh your appearance, teeth whitening offers fast, effective results with minimal sensitivity or discomfort.
How Teeth Whitening Works
Our teeth whitening treatments use a professional-strength whitening gel that penetrates the enamel to lift deep-set stains and lighten the shade of your teeth. Depending on your preference and oral health needs, we offer both in-office whitening and take-home kits. In-office whitening can brighten your smile in as little as one visit, making it an excellent option for those who want immediate results. Take-home kits allow you to whiten your teeth gradually at your convenience, with custom trays and detailed instructions provided by our dental team.
Common Causes of Tooth Discoloration
Teeth can become discolored over time for many reasons. Some of the most common include:
- Aging and natural enamel wear
- Consumption of staining foods and drinks such as coffee, tea, red wine and soda
- Tobacco use, including smoking and chewing tobacco
- Certain medications and medical treatments
- Poor dental hygiene habits
- Excessive fluoride exposure during tooth development (fluorosis)
Professional teeth whitening can reverse many of these effects, giving you a brighter and more youthful smile.
Customized Treatment For Optimal Results
Every smile is unique, which is why our dentist will evaluate your teeth and help determine the best whitening approach for your goals. We will take into account your dental history, tooth sensitivity and the severity of discoloration to recommend the most effective and comfortable treatment plan.
