Stains and yellowing shouldn’t hold you back from simply smiling. When your teeth are straight and healthy, but could use a boost, brighten your smile with at-home teeth whitening.
DID YOU KNOW?
Your teeth have pores, just like a sponge, which causes them to absorb stains.
Why should I choose at-home teeth whitening?
Why not?! Teeth whitening treatments are some of the most versatile and least expensive cosmetic dental treatments available. Brightening your smile by just a few shades makes you look younger and healthier. Many patients are amazed at the difference their whiter smiles make on their overall appearance. With a brighter smile comes more confidence. And when whitening options come at a lower price point than almost every other cosmetic dental treatment, teeth whitening is typically the biggest bang for your buck.

Dr. Khani is very thorough and understanding when it came down to my examination. She took time to explain to make sure what was happening and how to prevent damage to my teeth. Very serious doctor.
CKL
Nobody really enjoys going to the dentist, but Dr. Khani manages to make it a completely painless, enjoyable experience. The wait is never more than 5 minutes, and everyone I’ve encountered in the office has always been friendly and personable.
I have had several dentists in the past and all of them have made me anxious about having anything more than a cleaning done. I have had two appointments now for fillings as well as a cleaning, and Dr. Khani’s genuine and friendly demeanor put me at ease immediately. She always answers any questions and seems happy to educate about better habits and ways to prevent future problems. I feel like I’m in good hands with Dr. Khani and am thrilled I found her and her terrific staff.

I have always been afraid of the dentist. My anxiety was so intense. Dr Bill has made me feel so comfortable and put most of my anxiety at ease. Now instead of 2 years between appointments, I actually keep the appointments I make. Thanks Dr.Bill❤️

The At-Home Teeth Whitening Treatment Process
Treatment Plan

Custom Trays
To start your at-home teeth whitening treatment, your dentist will take digital models of your teeth with an intraoral scanner. These models will be sent to a dental lab, where a set of reusable, durable custom whitening trays will be built for your teeth.
Instructions & Application
Once your custom trays have been built, you’ll come back into our office to get your trays from your dentist, as well as a set of whitening products and instructions on how to use your whitening trays. Then, you’ll simply follow these instructions and whiten your teeth in the comfort of your own home.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can teeth whitening damage teeth?
%402x%20(2).svg){kind=icon}
Professional teeth whitening that is overseen and administered by a qualified dentist will never damage your teeth. Your dentist will ensure that you get the proper whitening products and that you do not over whiten your teeth.
However, it is possible to damage the teeth by over whitening them. The peroxide-based whiteners used in the teeth whitening process can weaken the teeth and damage the enamel if they are not used properly, or are used too frequently.
For this reason, it’s a good idea to avoid over-the-counter (OTC) teeth whitening kits from sources like Amazon and other websites, which could contain dangerously-high levels of peroxide.
If you do not want to pay for professional teeth whitening services from your dentist, make sure you only use ADA-approved whitening products. ADA-approved products have relatively low concentrations of peroxide, so the risk of enamel damage from over-whitening is much lower.
Which teeth whitening products actually work?
There are two categories of teeth whitening products that actually work.
The first are abrasive whiteners, such as toothpaste that contains baking soda (sodium bicarbonate), and other very mild abrasives. These abrasives work similarly to sandpaper, rubbing plaque and surface stains away from your teeth. These abrasive whiteners work on minor stains, but the abrasive is not strong enough to damage enamel.
It is recommended that you avoid charcoal toothpaste, which has abrasives that may be hard enough to damage your enamel with frequent use. Stick to an ADA-approved whitening toothpaste product.
The second category of teeth whitening products that actually work are chemical whiteners that contain peroxide. These are available both from dentists and over-the-counter, but it’s best to work with a dentist to get your desired results, and ensure that your teeth are not damaged by over whitening.
To explore your options in further detail and make sure you choose a safe, effective teeth whitening product, get in touch with your dentist for a consult.
Why does teeth whitening cause sensitivity?
The precise reason that whitening causes sensitivity is not fully known, but the leading theory is that it’s due to “dentinal microtubules.” These extremely small, microscopic channels in our teeth connect the exterior of the tooth enamel to the interior nerve, allowing us to feel sensations in our teeth.
The theory is that, since peroxide-based whiteners weaken the enamel very slightly, this exposes the microtubules, which become much more sensitive. Then, as the enamel remineralizes and becomes stronger after the whitening process is over, they are sealed up again, and no longer feel overly sensitive. This would explain why the sensitivity caused by teeth whitening typically only lasts for a few days.
