Believe it or not, we often get this question from Greensboro residents. The goal of teeth whitening is to achieve a whiter and brighter smile. This can be achieved in a number of different ways, and our team of dental professionals is here to help you decide which option will best fit your individual whitening needs. As a result, patients throughout the Greensboro area often leave our office with a brighter smile and more confidence when going to their next meeting or social gathering.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tRequest an Appointment\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t To upgrade the brightness of your teeth, your dentist will need to go beyond the surface of your teeth. To start, they perform an extensive cleaning that removes plaque, bacteria, and tartar that has built up over the past few months and years. They follow that up with a powerful combination of pumice and whitening gel. This combo works hard to remove discoloration and stains and prepare your teeth for the actual whitening treatment. These steps ensure your teeth are both white AND healthy once you’re done.<\/p>\n The typical in-office whitening process will take between 90-120 minutes.\u00a0 Teeth that are darker in color or experience sensitivity may require more time. Our Greensboro-based practice employs a team of professionals who will work hard to prevent gum irritation, ensure the whitening solution is applied correctly, and that your smile is getting the time and attention it deserves.<\/p>\n\t A teeth whitening procedure can cost around $450 – $650.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t A clean, white smile will provide you with the confidence you need for social gatherings and professional opportunities.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t The length of time that whitening will last will vary from patient to patient.\u00a0 Our team will walk you through the foods and drinks to avoid to help keep your teeth bright for as long as possible.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t In-office whitening procedures work immediately, so you will see results right away.\u00a0 The change can be more gradual for professional take-home whitening options.\u00a0 When you leave teeth whitening up to the professionals, you get a much more powerful and faster result. You will have whiter, brighter teeth as soon as you leave the office.<\/p>\n\t Having whiter teeth sounds excellent. Unfortunately, spending more time at the dentist does not. We are aware of the countless\u00a0whitening strips and kits<\/a> available on the internet. It may seem tempting to order something off Amazon and to use it while watching Netflix instead of making an appointment at the dentist. However, before you make this important choice, it’s essential to understand the long-term benefits that can only be gained by going to the dentist.<\/p>\nWhat Does<\/em> Professional Teeth Whitening Include?<\/h2>\n\t
