Teeth Whitening in Fredericksburg

Why Could Teeth Whitening in Fredericksburg Be the Answer for Me?

We refer to professional dental whitening as power bleaching because it's far superior to the over-the-counter whiteners you may have used in the past or the DIY bleaching kits. Power bleaching takes less time, provides superior results, and lasts longer. The primary advantage is that your bleaching procedure is performed by a professional dentist, and we monitor you throughout the procedure. Sometimes, teeth whiten at different rates, especially after reconstructive work, and we'll ensure that your teeth are all the same color.

We also use a professional-grade whitening agent that's much stronger than the over-the-counter kits. If you have severe coffee or tobacco stains, you may not achieve satisfactory results with over-the-counter products. For very stubborn stains, we may need to use a stronger solution to achieve the results you want.

At-Home Teeth Whitening

We can provide you with a professional-grade whitening kit for home use. We use the same teeth-whitening products in the home kits that we use in the office, and your teeth can be whitened by as much as six shades. For problematic teeth, an in-office treatment is still preferable, but our custom whitening trays are very popular.

What's the Teeth Bleaching Cost?

Just as with any dental procedure, your cost for teeth bleaching will be unique to you. Factors that will influence your ultimate cost include the type of procedure you select, the products we use, and your insurance coverage, as well as any other treatments you may need.

To receive a complimentary consultation and estimate, call VA Smiles Fredericksburg at (540) 744-3493 and we'll help you. We suggest that you speak to your insurance provider before your initial consultation so that you know the provisions of your plan, any limitations, and any exclusions. Bring that information with you, and we'll help you maximize your benefits. We'll also provide you with a comprehensive estimate that won't include surprises.

How Do the DIY Teeth Whitening and Professional Products Compare?

The professional whitening products are more reliable than the DIY teeth whitening products. The professional teeth whitening products are also more powerful than the teeth whitening at home products, so you'll achieve more impressive results in a shorter time. You'll also receive more evenly colored teeth since the procedure will be monitored by our staff. Sometimes, teeth may be unevenly whitened due to circumstances such as medications or reconstructive dentistry. We'll monitor your progress so that your teeth are all the same shade of white.

What Will Happen During the Teeth Whitening Procedure in Your Office?

Teeth whitening is non-invasive, pain-free, and relaxing. Generally, you can expect the following for a procedure in our Fredericksburg office:

• Your teeth-bleaching dentist will examine and then gently clean your teeth. If you have issues such as veneers, crowns, or extensive staining, your dentist will explain what you can reasonably expect from your whitening procedure. Sometimes, we design your custom whitening treatment based on the type of stains you have, so that all your teeth come out the same color.
• We may take photos to assist in shade selection and determine your progress throughout the procedure.
• We'll place a cheek retractor in your mouth to protect your gums and cheeks, and we'll apply a protective liquid to shield your gums.
• We'll then begin the teeth bleaching process, and we may use a special light to speed the curing time.

When your whitening procedure is complete, you and your teeth bleaching dentist will examine the results to determine if you're happy with the results or if you want to schedule another teeth whitening appointment.
