Whiter teeth can give you that added confidence boost to smile like you really mean it.
What is Teeth Whitening?
Teeth whitening is a process that can be completed in our dental office or with a custom take-home kit provided by our West Hollywood dentist. During teeth whitening treatments, we remove the stains from your teeth, so your smile looks brighter and more natural. The whitening process also removes natural discoloration, giving you whiter teeth than you had previously.
The safest way to get white teeth is to consult with our West Hollywood dentist about whether you qualify for this non-invasive treatment.
About In-Office Teeth Whitening
Every teeth whitening journey begins with a personalized consultation at our West Hollywood dental practice. During this session, our dentist will carefully evaluate your oral health and discuss your smile goals. If teeth whitening is a good fit for you, it’s often recommended before other cosmetic procedures. Why? Because tooth-colored materials like fillings and crowns won’t whiten with treatment, so whitening first ensures a more even, natural-looking smile.
If you decide to whiten your teeth, we’ll arrange to have you come back to our office for about an hour to an hour and a half. We’ll polish your teeth, retract your lips, and apply a special concentrated bleaching gel that safely lifts stain particles inside your enamel’s porous surfaces.
For our patients who prefer to whiten on their own time, custom take-home kits are also available.
Benefits of Professional Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening provides better results than over-the-counter products because the ingredients are highly concentrated. While over-the-counter kits will work, they are not as effective as an in-office whitening treatment. Same-day teeth whitening is a one-time process, or you can get custom trays to fit your teeth where you apply the professionally administered whitening gel. You can’t buy these products over the counter as they are only available from a dental professional.
- Brighter Teeth: Our whitening gel safely lifts 7-8 shades or more from your smile.
- Safe Results: Working with a professional helps prevent unwanted side effects.
- Faster and More Effective: Professional strength products work more quickly and remove more stains than commercial products do.
- Easier: With an in-office procedure, all you have to do is sit back and relax!
- Customized to Your Smile: Make teeth whitening part of your smile makeover or use it as a solo cosmetic enhancement.
- Reduced Sensitivity: Our dentist will help you identify the best products and ingredients to prevent and manage possible sensitivity from whitening your teeth.
West Hollywood Dental Studio offers convenient and affordable professional teeth whitening services to help you achieve a whiter smile in West Hollywood.
What Causes Tooth Stain?
Many people believe that teeth become stained or discolored due to things like coffee, tea, red wine, or cigarettes. However, our teeth also absorb stains as the years and decades go by, causing our smiles to look darker than before. Even certain types of medications can cause enamel staining.
Common Types of Whitening Products
The most common types of teeth whitening treatments we offer are in-office (same-day) whitening and take-home custom trays. Both work extremely well. Depending on your smile goals and the timeframe you’re working with, one may work better for you than the other. The team at West Hollywood Dental Studio will discuss the pros and cons of each one as it fits your situation so that you can feel confident about your aesthetic enhancement.
How to Keep Your Smile White
To keep your teeth white after a bleaching treatment, brush twice a day and floss daily to prevent plaque and tartar buildup. Also, rinse your mouth out with water any time you drink a dark liquid or eat something that might stain a white shirt (such as tomato sauce or curry.) Schedule a dental cleaning at West Hollywood Dental Studio twice a year to have your teeth professionally cleaned; we’ll also polish away any surface stains to help your smile stay white.
If you have a take-home whitening kit, we recommend touching up a few times after every six-month dental cleaning. If you drink a lot of coffee or tea, you may want to touch up as frequently as every 3-4 months.
Professional teeth whitening offers a safe, affordable, and fast solution for achieving beautiful results.
Am I A Good Candidate for Whitening?
A good candidate for teeth whitening is someone who wants whiter teeth and has healthy teeth and gums. There aren’t any active cavities or gum infections. They may not necessarily need any other cosmetic dental work, or they could be planning to whiten their smile so that new restorations match the brighter white by the time their treatment rolls around.
Whitening is ideal for adults of all ages, as well as older teens. We recommend avoiding whitening products if you are nursing or breastfeeding.
Because whitening is non-invasive, it’s a safe and affordable option for anyone looking to enhance the overall appearance of their teeth.
