Not every stain lifts the same way, which is why a real whitening consult starts by figuring out whether discoloration sits on the surface or deeper in the tooth. Surface stains from coffee, wine, or tobacco usually respond well to peroxide-based whitening gel. Intrinsic staining — from certain medications or old trauma — sometimes needs veneers or bonding instead of whitening alone.
Professional-grade whitening delivers a visible shade change in a single sitting, something take-home kits alone rarely match. A custom take-home tray is commonly provided afterward for touch-ups down the road.
Diet matters just as much after whitening as the treatment itself — coffee, wine, and tobacco start re-staining enamel within days if habits don't change. A touch-up tray a few times a year is usually enough to maintain the brighter shade long-term.
Higher peroxide concentration than store-bought kits, applied under supervision for safety. Concentration and exposure time are both adjusted based on your enamel and sensitivity history.
Sensitivity is monitored throughout, with treatment adjusted if it becomes uncomfortable. Any discomfort during the session gets addressed immediately, not noted for next time.
Most patients see a noticeable shade change after a single in-office appointment. Before-and-after shade comparisons are typically taken so the change is measurable, not just a guess.
Fitted trays extend your results well past the initial in-office treatment. A proper fit keeps the gel on the teeth and off the gums during at-home touch-ups.
Our network specialists cover the full range of this procedure, from the routine case to the complicated one.
Delivers the fastest, most visible shade change available through the network.

Surface stains and deeper intrinsic discoloration are treated differently — your provider identifies which you have first.
