Teeth Whitening Edmonton
Professional teeth whitening is a safe and effective cosmetic dental treatment that brightens your smile by reducing stains and discoloration caused by aging, coffee, tea, wine, tobacco use, and certain medications. While teeth whitening delivers noticeable results, periodic touch-up treatments may be recommended to help maintain your brighter smile.
At Plaza Dental Suite, we offer both in-office and take-home teeth whitening options to suit your lifestyle and goals. Before treatment, our dentists may record your current tooth shade with photos to monitor your progress and compare your whitening results.
In-office Teeth Whitening
Professional in-office teeth whitening provides fast, dramatic results and can brighten your teeth by several shades in a single treatment. A professional-strength whitening gel, typically containing hydrogen peroxide, is carefully applied and activated to lift stains from the enamel. Most appointments take between 30 and 90 minutes, although multiple visits may be recommended to achieve your desired shade.
Take-home Teeth Whitening
Our custom take-home whitening kits offer a convenient way to whiten your teeth at your own pace. We create custom-fitted whitening trays based on impressions of your teeth and provide professional whitening gel along with detailed instructions. Using the recommended amount of gel helps maximize results while minimizing the risk of gum irritation or tooth sensitivity.
Risks and Precautions
Some patients experience temporary tooth sensitivity following professional teeth whitening, but this usually resolves within a few days. Teeth whitening is generally not recommended during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. During your consultation, our dental team will determine whether whitening treatment is appropriate for your individual needs.
