Teeth Whitening in Kenmore

smiling patient looking in mirror Sometimes all you need to improve your smile is whiter teeth. At Princeton Dental, we offer in-chair and take-home teeth whitening to help you get the beautiful, bright smile you’re looking for.

Whitening can last a few months to a year, depending on the foods and beverages you consume, whether or not you smoke, and your overall oral hygiene.

What to Expect: In-Chair Whitening

We recommend in-chair whitening for patients who need a brighter smile immediately—for example, for wedding photos or an important event—or for those who don’t want the hassle of at-home whitening.

We start with an examination to determine if your teeth are suitable for whitening. In some cases, worn enamel or other conditions can cause teeth to be damaged by the bleach, leaving them extremely sensitive, so we won’t bleach in those cases. Next, we’ll do a thorough cleaning to remove plaque and tartar buildup on the teeth, which can prevent the bleaching gel from penetrating the tooth.

At your whitening appointment, we’ll protect your gums, tongue and all the soft tissues and then apply the bleaching agent to your teeth. This is a much stronger concentration than that offered in at-home or over-the-counter products. You’ll be in the office for two hours while the gel does its work, then we’ll rinse everything off and send you home with an at-home whitening kit for future touch-ups.

What to Expect: At-Home Whitening

As with the in-chair process, we’ll do a thorough examination and cleaning. We’ll take moulds of your teeth to create your personalised whitening trays. When they’re ready, we will give you the trays and the bleaching material to use. You’ll use the whitening gel every night until the desired shade is achieved.

Which to Choose?

At-home whitening is less expensive ($300) and whitens teeth gradually, using products that are stronger than over-the-counter options, but not as strong as in-chair products. In-chair whitening is more expensive ($800), but whitens teeth in two hours.
