Professional Teeth Whitening

Professional Teeth Whitening

Stains and discoloration can leave your smile looking dark, dingy, and older than its years. Fortunately, it doesn’t always take elaborate procedures and long, expensive treatments to get the beautiful smile you have been dreaming of. We proudly offer professional teeth whitening in Monterey as a quick, safe and effective way to brighten your smile and boost your confidence.

What is professional teeth whitening?

Professional whitening is a proven way to brighten your teeth by several shades in a single visit to our Monterey dental office. Using high-quality, professional-grade whitening products, we can lift stains and even lighten the shade of your natural enamel to give your smile a fresh, rejuvenated appearance.

Unlike over-the-counter whitening products, this process has proven, predictable results. It doesn’t use abrasive agents that can damage your enamel or scrape your gums.

Whether you want a slight refresh or a total smile transformation, professional teeth whitening is a great way to give yourself a glowing smile.

What issues can teeth whitening fix?

Professional teeth whitening is an effective way to remove stains from:

• Coffee
• Tea
• Red wine
• Berries
• Smoking
• Age-related discoloration

In some cases, it can even help reduce the appearance of intrinsic stains and developmental discoloration.

If you’re considering other treatments like dental veneers, we frequently recommend whitening your teeth first, as this helps us match your restorations to your smile’s brightest natural shade and keeps dark enamel from affecting the look of your veneers or cosmetic dental bonding.

How does professional tooth whitening work?

We work hard to make it as easy and straightforward as possible to give yourself a smile you feel truly confident sharing with the world. Here’s what to expect with the teeth whitening process:

1. Like every treatment with Monterey Peninsula Dental Group, we always prioritize your comfort and long-term oral health. We’ll carefully evaluate your oral health and ensure that whitening is right for you and that you’ll get the kind of results you’re hoping for.
2. Once we have determined you’re a good candidate for teeth whitening, we’ll carefully apply gentle, professional-grad whitening agents to break up stains and brighten your smile.
3. We’ll use a specialized light to activate the whitening gel and brighten your smile while you relax.

Getting healthier-looking, white teeth couldn’t be easier. Simply ask one of our dentists or staff at your next appointment or schedule a consultation for teeth whitening in Monterey today, so we can get you started!

Should you get your teeth whitened?

If your teeth are generally healthy, seeing our team for professional teeth whitening in Monterey is a quick and simple way to refresh your appearance and boost your confidence. We’re also happy to help you find the best products to keep your smile bright and beautiful at home.

Whether you believe professional or at-home teeth whitening is right for you, we strongly recommend getting a dental exam before you start. There are certain conditions that can create uneven or undesirable results, such as existing dental work that won’t respond to whitening and end up standing out even more.
