Whitening

Professional teeth whitening is faster, more effective, and longer lasting that treatments you find over the counter.

As we age, our teeth darken over time.

We can brighten your teeth by five to ten shades in a single session, but maintaining good oral hygiene and steering away from certain foods and beverages will help keep any future whitening services to a minimum.

We may also prescribe some medication for you to use at home that helps the whitening process.
