Teeth Whitening Near You

The whitening process begins with taking precise impressions of your teeth to create custom-fitted trays. These trays allow the whitening gel to make even, consistent contact with your enamel for predictable results.

While your trays are being fabricated, we often begin the whitening process with an in-office LED treatment to provide an initial boost. Once your trays and whitening gel are ready, you will apply the gel at home for about 30 minutes each day, typically for 5 to 7 days.

Some patients experience mild sensitivity during the whitening process. This occurs when the whitening agent penetrates the enamel to break down stains. Although this is normal, it can cause temporary discomfort. In most cases, sensitivity fades within 24 to 48 hours.

If needed, we can recommend sensitivity-reducing products or adjust your whitening schedule to keep you comfortable throughout treatment.

Every smile is unique, and results vary based on:

• Genetics
• The type and depth of stains
• Oral health conditions
• Medications
• Tobacco use
• Existing discoloration patterns

While many patients achieve brighter, more luminous teeth, some types of discoloration cannot be completely removed. Intrinsic stains, such as deep yellow or brown discoloration, may not respond fully to whitening.

Our goal is to create a treatment plan that delivers the best possible outcome while making sure expectations are realistic. During your visit, we will review your smile goals and discuss how whitening can help you achieve them.
