Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening uses a clinically controlled whitening gel to lift stains from within the enamel. It works on common discoloration from tea, coffee, tobacco and age, and it is safer than store bought products because your gums are protected and the process is supervised.

06 Questions
Teeth Whitening: your questions.
Does whitening damage enamel?
Professional whitening, done correctly, does not damage healthy enamel. Temporary sensitivity can happen and usually settles within a few days.
Will whitening change my crowns or fillings?
No. Whitening changes natural teeth only. If you have visible crowns or fillings, we will plan how to match them after whitening.
