Tooth Whitening

Tooth Whitening

Bleaching is a safe, effective and relatively easy way to produce a whiter smile. Tooth whitening (or bleaching) involves the placement of a bleaching solution on the teeth to eliminate stains and discoloration.

We offer several methods for whitening:

• Professional Strength Whitening Strips are extra adhesive strips containing a bleaching agent. These strips are unlike what you purchase at the drug store.  They fit tightly to the teeth and come off easily with warm water swishes.
• Take home bleaching solution is held in place by a custom made, see through tray that fits over the teeth, somewhat like a mouthguard worn by a professional boxer. The bleach solution is worn for an hour or two a day or overnight.
• For a “fast fix” we offer Power Bleaching  with BOOST done right at our office.

Sensitive teeth or those that are chipped, eroded, or weakened by decay, should be repaired before they are bleached.
