Teeth Whitening in Sarasota, FL

Whitening Before and After

Teeth whitening can provide a dramatic difference in a short amount of time.

In-Office Bleaching usually requires only one office visit. A protective gel or a rubber shield is placed over the gums to protect the soft tissue. A bleaching agent containing carbamide peroxide is applied to the teeth, and a specialized light is then used to enhance the action of the whitening agent. This is the fastest way to achieve results.

At-Home bleaching requires an impression of the teeth to be taken to make a customized mouth guard to hold the whitening gel, containing carbamide peroxide, against the teeth. Once the mouth guard is made, it is worn for a period of time, as instructed by our office. The amount of time may vary from a couple hours a day, or all night, to up to four weeks or longer, if desired.

Professional Whitening Options for a Brighter Smile FAQs

How do cosmetic whitening options improve appearance?

Cosmetic teeth whitening treatments focus on safely improving appearance by addressing stains, discoloration, and discolored teeth. Unlike whitening toothpaste or whitening strips, professional teeth whitening is designed to work more effectively on surface stains and deep stains while protecting enamel.

What happens during an in office whitening visit?

A professional teeth whitening session at a dental office is a simple procedure that may use hydrogen peroxide to remove surface stains and lighten natural teeth. Many patients see whitening results in just one visit through office whitening.

Is whitening safe for sensitive or restored teeth?

For patients with sensitive teeth, existing dental restorations, fillings, crowns, or veneers, a dentist or doctor can verify the right treatment. Options may vary to avoid gum irritation and protect porcelain veneers.

Can whitening be done at home?

Some whitening services include take home options using a custom tray for use in your own home. These whitening treatments help whitening teeth gradually, including lower teeth, while monitoring whitening work over time.

What results can patients expect?

Results depend on discolored, stained teeth, and surface or internal stains. The goal is a whiter smile, whiter teeth, and a brighter smile that looks natural, supports healthier teeth, and boosts confidence.
