Teeth Whitening Services
In-Office Teeth Whitening
Your dentist can apply an advanced whitening formula in the office. The whitening solution tends to have a higher concentration of active ingredients than you can find at the store, and your dentist will apply it carefully on each tooth with the best tools. One session can whiten your teeth by several shades.
Whitening Trays
You may want to continue your whitening efforts at home after your dentist performs the first application. The dentist will give you bleaching trays with the prescription whitening solution they use in the office. You will be responsible for performing the treatments yourself at home. Your dentist will give you detailed instructions and safety information before giving you the equipment to take home with you.
Veneers
Some teeth become so ground down that they expose the yellow dentin under the enamel layer of the tooth. When your teeth are yellow due to the enamel being worn down, whitening treatments won’t provide results. You will need to get veneers. Veneers are covers that you place over your teeth to improve their appearance.
