In-office (Zoom) Whitening
This option is great for people who want to see immediate results and want to whiten teeth quickly. Many people choose this option a week or two prior to a large social event such as a wedding.
​
This treatment takes 1-2 hours during which we will use a high-tech specialized light to help the hydrogen peroxide gel penetrate deep into your teeth to break up tough, thicker stains.
​
This type of whitening often is an excellent option for those with darker staining, or those who want an immediate and significantly brighter smile in just a couple of hours.
Take-home (Gel) Whitening
This option is great for people who want to whiten their teeth on their own time, or who want to continue with whitening periodically in the future.
​
We will make you custom fit whitening trays that will ensure a perfect fit to your teeth. Once a day you will fill your trays and wear them for 30 minutes. After only a couple of weeks you will see significant results.
​
This type of whitening is an excellent option for those with minor staining, or those looking to complement the in-office whitening.
