Professional Teeth Whitening For The Beautiful Smile You Deserve

If you brush and floss your teeth daily, it can be frustrating to notice that your teeth aren’t as white as they used to be. Don’t beat yourself! Tooth staining is natural and mostly has nothing to do with your everyday hygiene.

Here are the reasons why your teeth are stained.

• Foods and drinks such as coffee, tea, red wine, and dark berries (if it stains your white shirt, it will stain your teeth)
• Aging or dental wear revealing the dentine underneath
• Poor genetics
• Tobacco use
• Specific medications like tetracycline taken during tooth development
• Excessive fluoride exposure (fluorosis)

Our teeth whitening can remove most tooth stains, but we understand it has limitations. Teeth whitening can do little for deep intrinsic stains like those formed during dental development or caused by trauma or infection. The dentist recommends covering the teeth with dental veneers, bonding, or crowns in severe discoloration.

There are countless whitening products available on drugstore shelves. Although these products are cheap, please don’t fall into their trap. These products often deliver mediocre results, if any, even after weeks or months of use. Worse yet, they are known to cause enamel damage in the hands of inexperienced users.

Nothing comes close to whitening your teeth at a dental office. Dentists like Dr. Mohan use medical-grade products that remove surface and deep-set stains. Our office uses laser teeth whitening, which combines potent bleaching agents with advanced light technology. This combination delivers brighter, longer-lasting results in just 60 minutes, leaving your teeth several shades whiter.

Patients who don’t fancy our in-office teeth whitening can opt for our custom-fitted at-home whitening trays. They are gradual but generate noticeably white results like chairside teeth whitening.

It depends! We can’t guarantee the safety of store-bought products. Over-the-counter whitening kits often come with weaker instructions. When used inappropriately, the harsh chemicals can erode your enamel, leading to tooth sensitivity and permanent damage.

Whitening teeth at a dental office is safe because trained personnel closely supervise the procedure. While whitening is generally suitable for most people, we always begin with a thorough exam to ensure you’re a good candidate. We only proceed with treatment if your teeth are free of cavities and not overly sensitive.
