What is In-office bleaching?

Talk to your dentist to see if you are a good candidate for in-office bleaching. What does this involve? During your visit to our clinic, our dentist will apply a bleaching agent to your enamel and then enhance the effect by using a special light. The lasers help to ensure the teeth are whitened. This process may take up to several visits until you achieve the desired shade.

Many of us lead busy lives and prefer to use products in the comfort of our own home. Thankfully, there are a variety of options to whiten your teeth.
