Teeth Whitening – Las Vegas, NV

Who is a Good Candidate for Teeth Whitening?

If you’re unhappy with the color of your smile, we encourage you to schedule a consultation with our team. We can take a look at your teeth and figure out what intrinsic and extrinsic factors are causing the discoloration. Then we’ll evaluate your oral health and make sure there aren’t any untreated issues (such as gum disease or a cavity). Once we have gathered as much information as we can about your situation and learned about your smile goals, we can help you figure out whether teeth whitening is the right choice for you.

How Does Teeth Whitening Work?

At our office, patients can benefit from KoR and ZOOM brand in-office and at-home teeth whitening. To help you figure out which option is right for you, here’s a closer look at how they work:

Take-Home Teeth Whitening

A take-home teeth whitening kit contains special trays and bleaching gel. You will be instructed to fill the trays (which will be customized for your specific smile) with the gel before wearing them for a set amount of time. In many cases, you’ll start to notice a difference in the brightness of your grin after about two weeks.

In-Office Teeth Whitening

If you would like to achieve a brighter smile as soon as possible, you can ask our team about having an in-office whitening treatment performed. This procedure involves applying a powerful bleaching gel to your enamel while you’re sitting in the dental chair. The gel we use is considered very safe, and it is highly effective for getting rid of all kinds of dental discoloration. Oftentimes, the procedure can be completed in as little as an hour!

Tips for Maintaining Your Brighter Smile

To keep your smile looking as dazzling as possible after your teeth whitening treatment, be sure to stay away from foods and beverages that could cause new stains (such as blueberries and coffee). You should also make a point of practicing good oral hygiene; don’t forget to brush at least two times a day, and remember to floss and rinse with ADA-approved mouthwash as well. And of course, we recommend that you visit our office every six months for a checkup and cleaning.
