Professional Teeth Whitening for Better Results


Much more effective than over the counter products, professional teeth whitening can lighten your teeth up to 10 shades, however, it is important that you schedule your appointment with a cosmetic dentist who understands the different types of professional teeth whitening techniques available. Not all dentists are equipped to handle cosmetic dental procedures.

Chairside or In-Office Teeth Whitening


Done in less than an hour, chairside teeth whitening is an amazing procedure that can lighten your teeth in a single dental appointment.

Using a special gel that is applied to the teeth, your Dentist in Corona will use a laser or light to penetrate the highly concentrated prescription gel. Unlike those strips, polishes, gels and rinses that you find at your local pharmacy, professional teeth whitening gel has a higher content of Hydrogen Peroxide, which is the active ingredient.

Take Home Professional Teeth Whitening


Your Corona Dentist has several take home tooth whitening products available. All products include a prescription teeth whitening gel that you will use with custom-made trays.

You will wear the trays at night while you sleep, or 30 minutes every day until the desired result is achieved. It is important to follow the directions carefully to avoid over bleaching or over whitening.  

Those Over the Counter Products


It may be less expensive to whiten your teeth at home and while you will see results, you could damage your teeth if you use your gels, pastes, strips, or trays too often. Be careful not to use too much product either, as it can damage the enamel.

It’s better to play it safe when whitening your teeth. Talk to your Corona Dentist who can come up with a strategy to whiten your teeth the safe and effective way.
