Teeth Whitening

Looking for a smile makeover for an upcoming wedding, reunion or special event?

Professional teeth whitening is one of the quickest and most economical ways to enhance the appearance of your smile. We offer in-office teeth whitening, which will brighten your smile in a matter of minutes. In addition, we offer at home teeth whitening kits for teeth whitening treatment that fits in your schedule. Dr. Yang will meet with you to evaluate your needs, your dental health and to discuss your cosmetic goals before recommending the most suitable option. For tooth stains considered resistant to teeth whitening products, we offer cosmetic treatments that can provide permanent results. Dental crowns, porcelain veneers, and tooth bonding can address discolored or stained teeth with beautiful results that will last far longer than teeth whitening.

What causes discolored teeth?
Discolored teeth and tooth stains are common. They can be the result of a variety of factors:

• Foods and drinks such as: coffee, teas, colas, and wines
• Tobacco: Smoking or other tobacco products
• Poor dental hygiene: Neglecting to brush or floss
• Disease: For example, head and neck radiation, chemotherapy, and certain infections contracted during pregnancy
• Age: teeth naturally darken as we age
• Environment: Excessive fluoride levels in water

Why choose professional teeth whitening?
Professional teeth whitening is superior to over-the-counter whitening systems because of the high concentration of bleach used. Professional teeth whitening will deliver predictable and noticeable results faster and with little effort. For at home treatment, you will receive a custom-made bleaching tray to distribute the gel to the teeth evenly and avoid contact with the gums. We’ll make sure you get great results from these whitening agents without damaging the enamel or irritating the gums.
