Is Teeth Whitening Right for Me?

When you visit our practice for your consultation appointment, Dr. Tekreeti will work to determine if teeth whitening is right for you. Our team will start by examining your dental records and conducting an extensive oral examination. It's important to note that complications like tooth decay or gum disease need to be addressed before moving forward with our Santee teeth whitening treatment.

Our dentist will also ask you various questions. Have you ever undergone teeth whitening before? Does your smile play a role in your career? Finally, Dr. Tekreeti will determine if moving forward with treatment is right for you and select the type that works best for your situation. If you have any questions about our dental services, our team is here for you.

Meeting Your Extensive Whitening

Needs At Santee Dental Care, we've spent considerable time and effort to improve the scope of our teeth whitening services. No matter what your needs may be, we have the whitening type to help you get the bright smile you need. Each whitening type has unique strengths that we'll help you understand. Our teeth whitening types include:

  • In-Office Teeth Whitening: Our strongest teeth whitening option is our in-office whitening. This type uses a special professional whitening gel that relies on chemical reactions to bleach your teeth. Our in-office option is ideal for more noticeable staining. In-office teeth whitening takes roughly an hour to complete, which means it can fit better around hectic schedules. After your whitening appointment, Dr. Tekreeti will provide you with a take-home kit that allows you to touch up your smile.
  • Custom Take-Home Trays: If you're interested in a whitening option that pairs professional-grade strength with convenience, our custom take-home trays may be perfect for you. Like touch-up kits, you're able to whiten your smile in the comfort of your own home. One of the crucial differences is that custom take-home trays are designed to perfectly contour your smile for a more comprehensive whitening experience. Whether you're planning on attending a wedding ceremony or having family photos taken, custom trays can prove effective at preparing your smile.

Teeth Whitening FAQs

It's normal to have various questions about our Santee teeth whitening services. That's why our knowledgeable and approachable staff is here to answer your questions. By having the information you need, you can confidently decide if our services are right for you. Some of the most frequently asked questions about our teeth whitening treatment include:

How safe is teeth whitening?

You can breathe easy knowing that teeth whitening is safe while under the supervision of our highly trained dental team. If you feel slight tooth sensitivity following your treatment, it should go away in the days following your appointment. However, if you're pregnant or lactating, we recommend consulting our teeth whitening dentist before receiving treatment.

It's important to note that teeth whitening is not a permanent solution to tooth discoloration or staining. To maximize the total time you get to enjoy your results, it's crucial that you properly maintain your teeth through regular brushing, flossing, and limiting your consumption of dark-colored foods and drinks. If you notice that your teeth are beginning to discolor, you should schedule an appointment at our office for touch-up treatment.

Although teeth whitening is effective at whitening different types of teeth, it doesn't work on restorations. We'll work with you to place any restorations after your whitening treatment so that they match the shade of your natural teeth.
