Initial Evaluation

Dr. Tangalos or Dr. Saikaley will examine your teeth and discuss your whitening goals during consultation. They'll determine whether your type of discoloration will respond well to whitening treatment or if alternative cosmetic options might be more effective.

Treatment Preparation

Your teeth are thoroughly cleaned and prepared for the whitening process. This preparation ensures the whitening gel can work effectively and evenly across all tooth surfaces.

Professional Application

We apply professional-grade whitening gel and may use specialized lighting to enhance the whitening process. The strength and application technique allow for more dramatic results than at-home products can achieve.

Comfort Monitoring

Throughout the treatment, we monitor your comfort level and can adjust the process if you experience sensitivity. Our office amenities like Netflix, wireless headphones, and comfortable blankets help make the time pass pleasantly.

What Causes Tooth Staining

Understanding why teeth become discolored helps explain why professional whitening works so effectively:

  • Food and beverages - Coffee, tea, red wine, and other deeply pigmented substances create surface stains
  • Tobacco use - Creates persistent stains that penetrate the tooth surface
  • Natural aging - Outer enamel wears thin, revealing the yellowish dentin underneath
  • Medications - Certain antibiotics taken during tooth development can cause internal staining
  • Poor oral hygiene - Plaque and tartar buildup makes teeth appear yellow or dull

Professional vs. At-Home Whitening

Professional whitening treatments offer significant advantages over drugstore options:

  • Stronger bleaching agents - More effective ingredients than over-the-counter products
  • Faster results - Brighten teeth by several shades in a single appointment
  • Professional monitoring - Adjust treatment based on your sensitivity levels
  • Even coverage - Consistent whitening across all visible teeth
  • Controlled application - Precise technique ensures optimal results with minimal discomfort
  • Longer-lasting results - Professional treatments maintain brightness longer than at-home options

Maintaining Your Results

Professional whitening results typically last 6-12 months, depending on your lifestyle and habits:

  • Lifestyle factors - Coffee, tea, and wine consumption will gradually re-stain teeth
  • Oral hygiene - Regular brushing and flossing help preserve brightness
  • Professional cleanings - Every six months removes surface stains before they become embedded
  • Touch-up treatments - In-office or take-home options refresh results when needed
  • Avoiding staining substances - Limiting dark beverages helps maintain brightness longer

When Whitening May Not Be the Best Option

Some situations may require alternative cosmetic treatments for optimal results:

  • Existing dental work - Crowns, bridges, and fillings won't change color with whitening treatments
  • Severe discoloration - Teeth stained by certain medications or trauma may need veneers or bonding
  • Significant sensitivity - Patients with tooth sensitivity may be better candidates for alternative treatments
  • Certain dental conditions - Some oral health issues make whitening less suitable or effective

We'll discuss all options during your consultation to determine the best approach for your specific situation.
