Professional-Grade Results at Home
Unlike over-the-counter products, our professional whitening systems use concentrated, dental-grade formulas in custom-fitted trays. This combination ensures even, consistent whitening while protecting your gums and tooth enamel.
Comfort and Convenience
Your custom-fitted trays are designed for maximum comfort and minimal sensitivity. Choose between overnight whitening with Night White or shorter daytime sessions with Day White - both deliver exceptional results while fitting seamlessly into your routine.
Long-Lasting Brilliance
Professional whitening penetrates deeper than store-bought solutions, providing results that last significantly longer. With proper maintenance and occasional touch-ups, your brighter smile can maintain its sparkle for years.
Understanding Tooth Discoloration
Tooth staining occurs in different ways, affecting how we approach your whitening treatment. Surface stains from coffee, tea, or wine respond quickly to professional whitening. Deeper discoloration from aging, medications, or genetics may require a more gradual approach. During your consultation, we'll examine your teeth to determine the type of staining and customize your whitening plan accordingly.
The Professional Advantage
Store-bought whitening products often promise quick results but can lead to uneven whitening, tooth sensitivity, or gum irritation. Our professional approach offers several key benefits:
- Custom-fitted trays ensure even coverage and protect your gums
- Professional-strength gel provides superior results
- Dental supervision prevents sensitivity and ensures safety
- Personalized treatment plans based on your specific needs
- Long-term maintenance guidance
