Whitening


Professional teeth whitening is faster, more effective, and longer-lasting than treatments you find over the counter. As we age, our teeth darken over time. We can brighten your teeth by 3 to 4 shades in just one visit. The key to prolonged teeth whitening is a diet that avoids liquids that lead to stains. We may also prescribe some medication for you to use at home that helps the whitening process and helps reduce any sensitivity.
