Getting Your Teeth Professionally Whitened
Teeth whitening services at Lake Travis Family & Cosmetic Dentistry aren’t the same as the take-home trays you’re used to. Instead of wearing a set of trays an hour daily for two weeks, the entire process is accelerated and completed in an hour and a half. It condenses a two-week process into a single day.
For teeth whitening, our dentists will use a shade chart to compare the color of your teeth before and after treatment to determine how many shades lighter they are. Most people’s teeth will become six to eight shades whiter, but this varies from person to person. The sort of stain inside your enamel also affects the outcome.
Teeth Whitening Service Safety
Adults and older teens can safely benefit from a teeth whitening service with our dentists in Lakeway, TX. You don’t have to worry about physically hurting your teeth at Lake Travis Family & Cosmetic Dentistry. However, whitening your teeth at home, utilizing DIY methods, or using too much product might harm your teeth and gums.
This is especially true if you have gum recession or underlying dental disease. The safest approach to whitening your teeth is to have it done in the dentist’s office by your dental team, or to have them fit you with a set of trays and follow their instructions to the letter. It’s crucial to use the optimal application procedure and the optimum amount of whitening gel for both results and comfort.
FAQs

How long does the teeth whitening process take?
The teeth whitening process at our office typically takes about 1.5-2 hours. This professional treatment provides faster results compared to home teeth whitening kits, which may require multiple visits and consistent use over several weeks.
Is professional teeth whitening safe?
Yes, professional teeth whitening is safe when performed by a dental professional. Our cosmetic dentists use the appropriate whitening products and techniques to minimize the risk of tooth sensitivity and damage to the gum line. However, improper use of home teeth whitening products can lead to issues, especially if you have gum disease or sensitive teeth.
How long do the results of professional teeth whitening last?
The results of professional teeth whitening treatments can last from six months to two years, depending on your proper oral hygiene habits and lifestyle choices. Avoiding foods and drinks that cause new stains, such as red wine and soy sauce, can help maintain your brighter, whiter smile. Touch ups may be needed to keep your pearly whites looking their best.
Is teeth whitening painful or bad for sensitive teeth?
Some patients may experience temporary tooth sensitivity during or after the whitening treatment. Our cosmetic dentists take precautions to minimize sensitivity and can provide desensitizing treatments if needed. Those with very sensitive teeth may prefer custom trays for a gentler whitening solution.
How much whiter will my teeth get with your teeth whitening service?
Most patients see their teeth become 6-8 shades whiter after professional teeth whitening treatments. However, results can vary based on the initial shade of your teeth and the type of staining present. Our dentists will assess your current shade and discuss expected results before treatment.
How does professional whitening compare to at-home whitening products?
Professional in-office whitening uses stronger whitening agents and achieves more dramatic results in less time compared to over-the-counter teeth whitening products. While at-home kits can be effective, they typically require weeks of consistent use to see noticeable changes in tooth color. Professional treatment also ensures safety and minimizes the risk of complications.
Are there any alternatives to teeth whitening for improving my smile?
Yes, other cosmetic dentistry options like porcelain veneers or dental implants can dramatically improve the appearance of stained or yellow teeth. These options may be better for intrinsic staining, such as that caused by tetracycline antibiotics, which doesn’t respond well to whitening treatments.
What should I expect during an office visit for a teeth whitening service?
During an office visit for teeth whitening, our cosmetic dentists will first examine your teeth and gums to ensure you are a good candidate for the procedure. They will then apply a bleaching solution and use a special light to accelerate the whitening process. The entire procedure typically takes 1.5-2 hours, and you can expect to leave with a brighter, whiter smile.
What are the payment options for professional teeth whitening?
We offer various payment options to make professional teeth whitening treatments accessible to everyone. Please contact our office to discuss the best option for you.
Can I do teeth whitening at my own home?
Yes, we offer custom trays for home teeth whitening. These trays are designed to fit your teeth perfectly and come with professional-grade whitening gel. This allows you to achieve professional results from the comfort of your own home.
