Teeth whitening procedures by our dentists are customized to your teeth and are safe, effective, and provide a bright, white smile with just one visit.

Most people will see whiter, brighter teeth for six months, with many seeing the results for one, two, or even three years. The foods and beverages you consume, medications you take, smoking, and even genetics all impact how long your teeth stay white.

Our doctors are able to customize the level of whitening to the patient’s individual tooth sensitivity. However, if you do have some pain or discomfort, avoid hot and cold foods, acidic beverages, and foods, and choose a toothpaste made for sensitive teeth. It is important to note that pain is typically associated with the home or over-the-counter whitening products, not procedures completed by a dentist.

If you have sensitive teeth or have had tooth and mouth pain after using at-home whitening kits, talk to your dentist. We can use different formulations that do not trigger tooth sensitivity.

To extend the bright white of your smile, avoid any type of foods that cause stains. These include berries, coffee, tea, red wine, soy sauce, fruit juices, balsamic vinegar, turmeric, curry, tomato sauces and pastes, and other similar dark or acidic types of foods and beverages. Smoking is also a leading cause of discoloration of the teeth.

Most dental insurance policies do not cover cosmetic dental procedures. Talk to our team about your specific insurance coverage and options for payment.
