The Reason

Professional teeth whitening (dental bleaching) is usually performed by your dentist or a Registered Dental Hygienist to safely and effectively brighten your smile. Your whitening appointment will include a focused cosmetic evaluation and the following:

  • Removal of stubborn stains: Stains from coffee, tea, wine, and tobacco are lifted from the enamel. A professional-grade whitening agent is carefully applied to the tooth surface to break down deep discoloration that regular brushing and over-the-counter products cannot remove.

  • Application of whitening gel: The active ingredients in the whitening gel penetrate the enamel to break apart the molecular bonds of the stains. When left untreated, deep intrinsic stains can make your smile look aged, dull, or unhealthy. This professional treatment safely restores your teeth to a vibrant, youthful shade!

  • Teeth brightening and shade assessment: Remove years of discoloration and compare the final results to your starting shade to ensure a noticeably whiter, more radiant smile.

The teeth whitening procedure includes

A focused cosmetic evaluation and treatment will be performed by your dental professional at your whitening visit. During your appointment, your dentist and dental team will include the following:

  • Examination of tooth and gum health: Essential for ensuring your enamel and gums are healthy enough for the bleaching process, checking for any exposed roots or active decay

  • Preparation and gum isolation: A protective barrier or liquid resin will be carefully placed over your gums and soft tissues to prevent irritation from the powerful whitening solution

  • Application of professional whitening agent: A clinical-grade bleaching gel is applied evenly to the front surfaces of your teeth for optimal and uniform stain removal

  • Activation with a specialized light: A specialized dental LED or UV light may be directed at your teeth to accelerate the whitening process and enhance the breakdown of deep stains

  • Post-treatment care and evaluation: Check the final shade against your baseline, rinse the teeth thoroughly, and apply a desensitizing gel or fluoride to ensure your comfort after the procedure
