Even professional whitening will only affect the color of natural teeth. What this means is that it will have little to no impact on restorations that you currently have. If you would like to whiten restorations, like crowns and bridges, you will need to have them replaced entirely. We will examine your teeth to determine if they’re healthy enough for professional whitening.
For our in-office whitening, you will come into our office and be seated in one of our comfortable operatories. Your lips are kept separate from your teeth while a whitening gel is applied to each tooth’s surface. A bright light is positioned over your smile to help accelerate the results of the whitening. The gel is removed and reapplied halfway through the procedure. In just 60 minutes, your smile will be multiple shades whiter. For take-home whitening, we will make special custom trays for you using impressions of your teeth. We then provide you with a whitening gel that can be placed inside of these trays and worn in the comfort of your own home.
If you would like to learn more about whitening, call us today so that we can help get you in for a consultation appointment.
