About Veneers

What It Is

Professional-grade teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental treatment that safely lightens the shade of your teeth. Unlike over-the-counter strips and trays, our professional formulations are stronger, custom-fitted, and applied under expert supervision for superior results and safety.

How It Works

Our in-office and take-home whitening treatments use advanced peroxide-based gels that penetrate the tooth structure to break down stains. Custom-fitted trays ensure even coverage, while professional application and guidance maximize effectiveness. Results typically appear within days and continue to improve over two weeks.

What To Expect

You'll notice visible whitening within 24 to 48 hours, with optimal results in 7 to 14 days. Mild sensitivity is common but manageable with recommended products. Results last 6 to 12 months with proper maintenance. Touch-up treatments keep your smile brilliantly bright year-round.

FAQs

  • Results vary based on your starting shade and tooth composition, but most clients achieve 2 to 3 shades whiter. We'll discuss realistic goals during your consultation and show you shade guides to help you understand what's achievable for your smile.

  • Yes, professional teeth whitening is safe when performed by dental experts. We use clinically-proven formulations, gingival blockers, and protective measures to safeguard your enamel. Our team monitors your treatment to ensure optimal results with minimal sensitivity.

  • Some clients experience mild, temporary sensitivity during or after treatment. We provide sensitivity management strategies and recommend desensitizing products before and after your appointment. Most sensitivity resolves within a few days.
