Process
Consultation: Your whitening journey starts with a thorough consultation where we assess your oral health, understand your smile goals and recommend the most suitable whitening option. We may also perform a professional cleaning to remove surface stains and prepare your teeth for the best results.
In-Office Whitening: Our in-office teeth whitening delivers noticeable results in just one visit. We protect your gums with a barrier, apply a powerful whitening gel and may use a special light to speed up the process—lifting deep stains in approximately 90 minutes.
Take-Home Whitening Kit: If you prefer a more gradual approach, our take-home whitening kit includes custom-fitted trays and professional-grade gel. Worn daily for 1–2 weeks, it lets you brighten your smile comfortably and conveniently at your own pace.

Next Steps
Manage Sensitivity: Wear your custom trays with sensitivity gel for 2–4 hours to help calm any tooth sensitivity.
Gradual Whitening at Home: Once sensitivity improves, begin using the 15% or 35% whitening gel at home, following your dentist’s recommendations.
Minimize Staining: Drink through a straw to limit contact between your teeth and stain-causing beverages.
Avoid Staining Foods and Drinks: For 48 hours after whitening, avoid items like coffee, red wine, berries and tomato-based sauces to maintain results.
No Smoking or Tobacco: Steer clear of tobacco products, which can quickly discolor your newly whitened teeth.
