In-Office Whitening

Teeth whitening can be achieved through a variety of different methods, from off-the-shelf whitening toothpaste to professional whitening. Dr. Behdad and the team at Dental Square provide professional whitening treatment that will leave you with a beautiful smile and stunning results.

An in-office whitening treatment achieves instant results, so you walk out our door with a brighter smile. The procedure is highly effective, leaving stained or discolored teeth noticeably whiter.

In-office whitening involves applying a professional whitening gel. This gel is similar to some take-home treatments, but it is much stronger and can only be applied by a dentist. The gel is left to sit for some time, with your entire visit lasting about 90 minutes.

You can expect to see a stunning smile after your in-office whitening from the best teeth whitening service Mountain View has to offer. While the results are excellent, you should remember that your teeth can become stained again by the same habits that caused the discoloration in the first place.

How Do Teeth Become Stained and Discolored?

Our teeth whitening treatments are sought out by a wide range of patients because stained teeth can happen to anyone. However, some activities can greatly accelerate how quickly your teeth become discolored.

The primary causes of noticeable teeth staining are acidic beverages and those that contain compounds called tannins. These include coffee, wine, sodas, and more. Smoking is also a significant cause of teeth staining, particularly among long-time smokers.

Teeth can become discolored over time even without these accelerating factors. Most foods and beverages contain at least some staining compounds, and a lifetime of use can see your teeth become stained even with the best personal dental care.

Other Whitening Options

At Dental Square, we carefully consider each patient's individual needs when recommending treatment options. For some, at-home tray whitening is the best follow-up to in-office whitening treatments. Avoiding foods that can cause staining, combined with follow-up at-home whitening produces the best results.

We can provide you with whitening gel and custom-made trays for at-home treatment. This treatment uses a lower-strength gel than in-office whitening, which makes it safe for you to use at home. In general, at-home whitening involves weekly applications to maintain the brightness and whitening that most patients would like to maintain.
