Teeth whitening is one of the most commonly requested cosmetic dental treatments for one simple reason: most people have stains or yellowing on their teeth at some point in their lives. Discoloration can be caused by drinking coffee, tea, or red wine, by smoking, and even by certain medications and aging. With so many potential causes, it’s easy to see why so many people seek professional teeth whitening treatments.
We offer both in-office and at-home whitening treatments at Barkoff Dental. Here’s what you should know about each of these options.
ZOOM! In-Office Teeth Whitening
For the most dramatic results in the shortest amount of time, choose Philips ZOOM! WhiteSpeed. This in-office teeth whitening procedure can brighten your teeth by up to eight shades in a single 45-minute office visit. WhiteSpeed has adjustable intensity settings for your comfort, a breakthrough in whitening that allows 99% of patients to experience little-to-no sensitivity during or after their treatments. After protecting the soft tissues in your mouth, we will apply the whitening solution directly to your teeth, then use a specialized light to activate it and enhance its results. You’ll leave our office with a radiant, youthful smile.
ZOOM! At-Home Teeth Whitening
If you’d rather whiten your teeth from the comfort of home, we also offer Philips ZOOM! DayWhite and NiteWhite. Unlike over-the-counter teeth whitening kits, these products are made with professional-grade ingredients and desensitizing ingredients that prevent sensitivity and make your tooth enamel smoother and more lustrous. You’ll achieve results in one to two weeks, and you can feel confident in your treatment knowing that it’s being supervised by your dentist.
