Teeth whitening, also known as bleaching, helps brighten teeth that have been discolored due to food and drink, tobacco use, aging, or injury. A wide range of in-office and take-home treatments are available to reduce or eliminate these stains and restore a brighter smile.

In-Office Teeth Whitening

In-office whitening, also known as chairside bleaching, is performed during scheduled appointments at a dental office. This method offers several benefits over at-home options, including:

  • Professional supervision
  • Quick results
  • Safe and straightforward application
  • Minimal to no sensitivity

Take-Home Teeth Whitening Products

Take-home whitening kits provide an effective, convenient, and cost-efficient way to brighten your smile. Dentists supply patients with custom-fitted trays, whitening gel, and powder. With consistent use over a few days, these kits can significantly improve the appearance of your teeth.

Over-the-Counter Teeth Whitening Products

There are numerous over-the-counter options such as whitening toothpastes and bleaching strips. While these products are based on similar principles as professional treatments, they contain lower concentrations of active ingredients. This means they often take longer to show results and may not produce the desired level of whitening.

Note: Whitening results are not permanent. Over time, the effects may fade—especially if teeth are exposed to foods or drinks that cause staining.

What are My Options for Whitening My Teeth?

If you’re considering brightening your smile, there are several options available:

  • Whitening Toothpaste: Convenient and widely available, whitening toothpastes help remove surface stains through gentle abrasion. However, they generally don’t deliver dramatic results.
  • Teeth Whitening Strips: These are easy to use and accessible, but contain low levels of hydrogen peroxide. Results may take longer and there’s a chance of gum irritation with prolonged use.
  • Professional Whitening Kits: These kits include custom trays and clinical-strength whitening gel. They offer noticeable results and are a safe, convenient at-home option under professional guidance.
  • In-Office Whitening: For fast, dramatic improvement, in-office whitening is ideal. Our Zoom! Whitening system takes just about an hour and delivers immediate, radiant results—all in the comfort of our med spa.

How Does Teeth Whitening Work?

Professional whitening treatments use hydrogen or carbamide peroxide to break down the pigmented molecules lodged in your enamel. These substances oxidize the stains, effectively lifting discoloration and restoring the natural light-reflecting qualities of your teeth—resulting in a noticeably whiter, more luminous smile.

How Often Can I Get Zoom! Teeth Whitening?

Zoom! whitening provides long-lasting results, but touch-ups may be desired over time. Most patients can safely undergo professional whitening once or twice a year, depending on the health of their teeth and gums.
