Types of Teeth Whitening

Dental discoloration and tooth discoloration affect nearly everyone over time, but understanding your treatment options helps you make the best choice for your lifestyle and goals. The natural aging process affects enamel, causing it to lose that white, bright natural color. For some, contact with substances such as coffee, tea, alcohol, or tobacco stain teeth more severely, causing teeth staining from extrinsic stains that penetrate the surface.

Fortunately, there are effective and affordable whitening systems available to remove those stains and give you a lighter, whiter shade. Our advanced whitening treatments can help you revitalize a dull, darkened smile through two primary approaches: In-Office Professional Teeth Whitening and Take-Home Custom Whitening Trays.

In-Office Whitening Treatments

The most effective whitening procedure is our in-office, dentist-applied bleaching treatment. This method, usually performed after a thorough teeth cleaning, delivers exceptional results in a single visit and takes only a few simple steps:

Professional whitening treatments performed in our office provide dramatic results that can transform your appearance in approximately one hour. The process begins with careful application of a specially formulated whitening gel to your tooth surface. Unlike over-the-counter whitening strips or whitening toothpastes, our professional-grade whitening gel contains hydrogen peroxide that is chemically activated to instantly begin working on enamel for optimal results.

The total treatment takes about an hour, during which you can relax and enjoy the comfortable, stress-free environment of our office. While you wait for the gel to process, our team ensures your comfort throughout the entire session. Finally, you’ll be able to compare the color to the initial shade, witnessing your appearance become much whiter and brighter.

As an optional enhancement, you can receive custom whitening trays to take home, allowing you to maintain your whiter smile between checkups. The in-office method provides more long-lasting outcomes compared to at home alternatives, with many patients achieving their desired pearly whites in just one appointment.

Take-Home Teeth Whitening Kits

Using professional teeth whitening kits is much safer and more effective than trying over-the-counter products like whitening strips or whitening toothpastes. Our take-home systems help patients achieve a sparkling appearance through a more gradual approach. This option offers an affordable alternative, though it requires more time than in-office methods. The at home system works particularly well for those with minor staining, though it may prove less effective for severely stained surfaces.

The at home kit includes trays made from precise impressions of your natural surfaces, along with professional-grade gel containing carbamide peroxide typically used in 10 applications. You’ll wear the trays for about 20 minutes daily, and within a week or two, you can achieve similar optimal results. The at home system may be right for you if you prefer to complete your whitening teeth process in the comfort of your own home and choose the timing that works best for your schedule.

Unlike generic whitening strips or whitening toothpastes available in stores, our trays ensure even coverage and prevent gel from irritating your gums. The professional-strength formulation provides superior cost-effectiveness compared to repeatedly purchasing over-the-counter products, while the trays can be reused for future touch-up sessions.

Customized Solutions for Your Lifestyle

Every appearance is unique, and Dr. Goetz recognizes your approach should reflect your individual needs and goals. Some patients desire transformation for a special event like a wedding or reunion, while others prefer a more subtle enhancement for a completely natural look. The beauty of professional teeth whitening services lies in their ability to be precisely controlled and customized to achieve outstanding outcomes.

 

For patients with sensitive surfaces, Dr. Goetz can modify the protocol to minimize discomfort while still achieving excellent outcomes. Special desensitizing approaches containing fluoride may be applied before or after sessions to ensure your comfort throughout the process, providing less sensitivity during and after whitening treatments. The concentration of whitening agents can also be adjusted to find the perfect balance between effectiveness and comfort for your specific situation, making the approach both teeth whitening safe and highly effective.

 

If you have existing dental crowns or other restorations visible when you appear happy, Dr. Goetz will carefully evaluate how whitening teeth will affect your overall appearance. In some cases, brightening your natural teeth first allows for the replacement of older restorations with new ones matching your brightened appearance, creating seamless and beautiful outcomes.

When to Consider Whitening Treatments

The mirror rarely lies, but sometimes it takes a specific moment to truly see what’s been gradually changing over time. Perhaps you’re scrolling through recent photos from a family gathering and notice your appearance doesn’t quite have the brightness you remember, or maybe you’ve been invited to an important event and want to look your absolute best. Many patients discover their desire for brightening sessions during routine dental checkups when they see their appearance from a new angle in the dental chair.

 

Several life moments often inspire patients to consider enhancement approaches. Dr. Goetz frequently sees patients motivated by both personal milestones and professional opportunities highlighting the importance of a confident appearance. Special occasions and celebrations like weddings, reunions, graduations, or milestone birthdays create perfect opportunities to invest in brightening sessions.

 

Professional opportunities including job interviews, promotions, public speaking engagements, or client-facing roles put your appearance in the spotlight, making enhancement approaches an investment in your career success. Personal wellness journeys, when you’re focusing on self-care and recognizing feeling good about your appearance supports healthier choices in other areas, represent ideal times to consider enhancement.

 

Life transitions such as entering a new decade, starting relationships, or major life changes often inspire people to refresh their appearance through brightening sessions.

Daily confidence concerns, when you find yourself hiding your appearance behind closed lips or avoiding photos because of tooth discoloration, signal it may be time to explore your options.

 

These motivating factors often overlap, creating the perfect opportunity to invest in your appearance and overall confidence. The truth is, there’s never a wrong time to consider enhancement sessions if you’re bothered by discoloration or simply want to enhance your natural beauty.

 

Dr. Goetz often tells patients the best time for whitening teeth is whenever you’re ready to feel more confident about your appearance. If your mouth is healthy enough for the sessions, your goals are realistic, and you’re committed to maintaining the results, then you’re an ideal candidate for this transformative approach helping you rediscover the joy of sharing your brightest appearance with the world.

Maintaining Your Results

The joy of seeing your newly brightened appearance in the mirror matches the knowledge that with proper care, these outcomes can last for years. Dr. Goetz provides personalized guidance on maintaining your bright appearance, including recommendations for at home care products and lifestyle modifications helping preserve your results while keeping the cost of maintenance minimal.

 

Simple changes like using a straw when drinking coffee or red wine can significantly extend the life of your sessions. Regular dental cleanings and checkups not only maintain your oral health but also help keep your appearance looking its brightest by removing surface stains before they penetrate deeper into your tooth structure and cause additional tooth discoloration. Regular visits can strengthen your enamel and help maintain your whiter smile longer.

 

For patients wanting to maintain their results long-term, Dr. Goetz may recommend periodic touch-up sessions using your take-home trays at home. These brief maintenance approaches can refresh your appearance and ensure it continues reflecting the vibrant, confident person you are, providing excellent cost value compared to repeating the full process.

Frequently Asked Questions

In-Office sessions offer amazing outcomes in about an hour through our advanced single visit approach. This product uses a chemically activated gel that begins the brightening process immediately upon application, providing teeth whitening safe and effective outcomes.

The effects of brightening sessions are not permanent, but their longevity depends on your lifestyle choices. If you maintain healthy habits and limit exposure to substances that stain teeth such as tea, coffee, cigarettes, or wine, your results may last significantly longer. The cost of maintenance sessions at home remains minimal compared to the initial approach.

Professional dental cleaning before your brightening session ensures the best outcomes by removing plaque and tartar that can prevent the gel from penetrating the surface effectively. This preparation step is crucial for achieving outstanding results and making your session as effective as possible.

It’s important to understand brightening sessions do not work on existing restorations such as crowns, veneers, bonding, fillings, or bridges. After sessions, the color of your natural teeth might differ from these restorations. Dr. Goetz will evaluate your specific situation and may recommend updating restorations to match your newly brightened appearance for seamless outcomes.

Unfortunately, brightening sessions are not covered by dental insurance as they are purely cosmetic and elective. However, we offer flexible payment options to make sessions accessible, and the cost of teeth wrepresents an excellent investment in your confidence and appearance. Our team can discuss financing options to help make your desired approach affordable.
