Not all staining responds to whitening the same way, so we start with a shade check and a look at whether staining is surface-level or deeper in the tooth.
These are the four things patients actually ask about before booking Teeth Whitening, not a generic checklist we copied from another service page.
Not all staining is the same — we distinguish surface stains from deeper intrinsic discoloration before recommending a method.
Whitening agents are selected and concentrated appropriately for your enamel condition and sensitivity history.
Desensitizing gel is part of the standard protocol, not an upsell you have to ask for separately.
Both in-office and take-home options are quoted clearly upfront, so you can choose based on budget and timeline, not guesswork.
Every option below is available under the same upfront-pricing standard, whichever specific service ends up fitting your case.
A single in-office visit uses a higher-concentration gel activated under controlled conditions for visible same-day results. Most patients see two to eight shades of improvement in one visit, depending on starting shade.
Trays are molded to your teeth specifically, unlike the generic fit of store-bought kits. This option tends to produce more even results with less sensitivity than in-office treatment.
For patients with a history of sensitive teeth, a desensitizing step before whitening substantially reduces discomfort. Sensitivity typically resolves within a day or two after treatment regardless.
We'll tell you honestly if your staining needs bonding or a veneer instead of whitening gel. Setting the right expectation here prevents disappointment after treatment.
A small take-home touch-up kit can maintain results between full treatments. Most patients touch up every six to twelve months depending on diet and habits.
No mystery about what happens between calling us and walking out with the problem addressed.
We'll check your baseline shade and staining type before recommending in-office or take-home whitening.
Based on your timeline and sensitivity history, we'll recommend the option that fits, with pricing upfront.
We monitor for discomfort throughout and adjust the schedule if needed.
You'll leave with a clear sense of how long results should last given your habits.
These are unedited, from patients who've actually been through Teeth Whitening treatment with us in the past year.
“Take-home trays worked better for me than I expected, and barely any sensitivity thanks to the desensitizing step.”
“They were upfront that one of my teeth wouldn't whiten the same as the others because of an old root canal. Appreciated the honesty.”
“In-office results were visible immediately, and they walked me through exactly what to expect beforehand.”
“My teeth are usually sensitive to everything, and this was the first whitening treatment that didn't leave me wincing for days.”
“The touch-up kit they gave me has kept results looking fresh for almost a year now.”
Straight answers to what people actually want to know before committing to Teeth Whitening.
Results depend on starting shade and staining type; most patients see two to eight shades of improvement.
Patients with a sensitivity history get a modified, gentler schedule to reduce discomfort.
In-office uses a stronger gel for faster same-day results; take-home trays whiten gradually with less sensitivity over one to two weeks.
We'll flag this possibility during the assessment so it's not a surprise after treatment.
Coffee, tea, and red wine speed up fading — a touch-up kit helps maintain results longer.
Formulations and concentrations are selected based on your enamel condition and sensitivity history — we don't use a one-size-fits-all approach.
We can usually confirm same-week availability for Teeth Whitening before you even finish describing your situation.
Our Teeth Whitening service is available to patients throughout Southmont, with both in-office and take-home options offered at the same location. Ask about combining a whitening consultation with your next routine cleaning visit.
