Custom Whitening

Tooth whitening is a procedure that lightens teeth and helps to remove stains nd discoloration. Whitening is among the most popular cosmetic dental procedures because it can significantly improve how your teeth look.

The outer layer of a tooth is called the enamel. Every day, a thin coating forms on the enamel and picks up stains. Tooth enamel also contains pores that can hold stains. Whitening is not a one-time solution. It will need to be repeated from time to time if you want to maintain the brighter color.

The most common type of vital tooth whitening uses a gel-like whitening solution. This product usually contains hydrogen peroxide. You will place the whitening gel in a tray that resembles a night guard or mouth guard. Then you place the tray over your teeth for a certain period of time, anywhere from an hour or two to overnight.

Tooth whitening can be done in our office or at home. In-office (chairside) whitening allows your dentist to supervise the process and your progress more closely.

In-office whitening usually takes 30 to 90 minutes. You will need at least two or three appointments. The number of visits required will depend on the type of discoloration and how white you want your teeth to be.
