Teeth Whitening
At Beacon Dental Group, we are completely committed to helping each patient solve dental problems as they arise, but we also want our patients to love the appearance of their smiles. When we love our smile, we smile more and have more confidence, and that’s just what we want for our patients. Due to natural reasons or beverages and things we put in our mouth, our teeth tend to stain and discolor. If this has happened to you and you’re craving your whiter smile, we have a solution for you, teeth whitening!
For the convenience of our patients, we offer two different ways to whiten through our office. We provide in-office bleaching and take-home whitening trays for you to whiten in the comfort of your own home.
In-Office
We recommend setting up a whitening appointment in our office for patients who want immediate whitening results. This treatment uses a light-activating bleaching gel and a special whitening light. We will consult with you before beginning the process to find a whitening gel that will suit your needs and desires. We will thoroughly clean your teeth to ensure no hidden bacteria or plaque could affect the whitening treatment.
At the beginning of your appointment, we place a protective gel around your lips and gums to protect soft tissue during the treatment. Then the bleaching gel is placed only on your teeth, and we place the light in your mouth. The entire treatment takes only an hour, and your teeth will be multiple shades brighter. It is natural for you to experience some sensitivity on your teeth during the process, but there should be no pain.
After your appointment, we will give you a take-home touch-up kit where you can touch up your new white smile whenever you feel necessary.
Take-Home
Our take-home whitening trays are for our patients who don’t have the time to make an extra appointment. When you request the take-home whitening treatment, we will take an impression of your teeth that will allow us to create custom whitening retainers.
In this whitening package, we give you the trays, custom-made bleaching gel, and instructions on how to use it and how often to use it. Although these results are more gradual compared to our in-office whitening, you can whiten whenever convenient for you. It is important for you to always clean your teeth before using the trays and never whiten overnight.
If you are unsure about what whitening treatment to get, we can help you decide! Give us a phone call today. We will review your oral history and help you determine what is best!
Over the Counter Products
Today, many different over-the-counter teeth whitening products are available. While these may seem like the more convenient and cheaper option, to begin with, we can guarantee that they will not be as effective as professional whitening. You will spend more time and money trying to make these products work and replacing them when they run out than you would with one of our treatments. We recommend skipping the hassle of drug store whitening treatments; come to Beacon Dental Group, a place you can trust to give you the best whitening treatment available.
