Dental Office Teeth Whitening In Scotch Plains, NJ

Having a bright, white smile is a top aesthetic concern for many dental patients, which is why the staff at Dentalcare Associates provides non-invasive, simple teeth whitening procedures right in the office. Working with professionals helps you achieve a more natural smile, and we can also ensure any fillings, crowns or implants are treated or replaced so they match the overall hue of your natural enamel after whitening.
Reasons To Seek Teeth Whitening
Over time, teeth loose their natural whiteness for a variety of reasons. Stained teeth can be due to certain types of medications, smoking or drinking coffee regularly. The outer layer of the tooth also sustains normal wear and tear over time, which can reduce its luster.
What To Expect From A Teeth Whitening Procedure
When it comes to whitening procedures, Dentalcare Associates offers two types of bleaching treatments: In-office bleaching and take-home custom bleaching trays.
For the in-office bleaching procedure, you can expect to stay in the dental chair for approximately an hour. During this time, the bleaching solution will be applied to your teeth while you sit and relax. At the end of the procedure, you can expect to see immediate results and we provide instructions on how to care for your teeth following treatment.
Take-home custom bleaching trays require two visits. During the first visit, we'll make molds of your teeth. Those molds are used to create custom trays that fit over your teeth, which you'll try on at the second appointment. During the second visit, you will receive your custom trays and bleaching solution with instructions on how to perform the whitening treatment at home, which requires wearing the trays 1-2 hours a day for a few weeks. Following the treatment, the bleaching trays are yours to keep indefinitely, which allows you to bleach at home whenever you like to maintain your smile.
Regardless of which treatment you select, you may experience some tooth sensitivity during the process, which is normal. Dentalcare Associates staff is available every day during office hours to answer questions via phone about any issues or concerns you have.
