Professional Teeth Whitening in Dallas Texas

Teeth Whitening in Dallas, TX

Teeth whitening is a safe and effective procedure that provides many cosmetic benefits. You will enjoy many advantages of our teeth whitening solutions versus an at-home teeth whitening kit, including:

  • Safe in-office procedure: Our team goes the extra mile to protect the areas around your teeth. We make sure you don’t feel any sensitivity or end up with damage. Under the direct care of our experienced dentist, you can enjoy a comfortable and safe teeth whitening session.
  • Convenience: Years of consistent brushing and good oral hygiene care can still result in a dull smile. This is because most people eat or drink things that stain their teeth. Whitening your teeth gives you an immediate smile upgrade that would be nearly impossible to get otherwise.
  • Long-lasting results: Teeth whitening will last a long time if you continue on with good oral hygiene and a consistent dental care plan. Come see us every six months for check-ups and cleanings. It’s a great way to keep your results lasting longer. We’ll make sure your smile stays bright and healthy for a long time.
  • Professional service: Products you buy at the store often don’t work well and can leave your teeth looking patchy or uneven. However, Dr. Huckin provides you with high-quality results. Our team will guide you every step of the way. Your whitening process will be smooth, safe, and gives you the bright smile you’re after.

When you leave our office, you’re leaving with a brighter and more beautiful smile.

Our Teeth Whitening Treatment Process

We offer both in-office whitening treatments and take-home whitening trays. During a consultation, we will see which option is the best one for you. The in-office option takes about an hour to complete in our office. The at-home option is best for patients that aren’t in a rush to whiten their teeth.

First, we make sure that we protect your gums and soft tissues in your mouth from the bleaching agent. We only want to expose your tooth enamel to the teeth bleaching chemicals.

Then, Dr. Huckin will apply the bleaching agent onto your teeth. A special light will activate the whitening agent in the gel, and all you have to do is just sit back and relax. In-office whitening is ideal when you want to whiten your teeth quickly for an event. When you leave, your smile will be up to eight shades whiter.

Take-home teeth whitening is a more gradual process. First, we will take impressions of your teeth to make custom-fit bleaching trays that will only fit your mouth, teeth, and gums. Professional-grade whitening gel goes in these trays.

Dr. Huckin will talk to you about how long you have to wear them. Depending on the results you’re looking for, you’ll typically wear them for a few hours each day for a couple of weeks.

Custom bleaching trays ensure that you get an even whitening treatment without patchy coverage. Fitted trays have less of a risk that the bleaching agent will damage your gums. The trays also help to seal out saliva, because saliva can compromise the whitening process.

Teeth Whitening FAQs

Is Teeth Whitening Safe?

Yes, teeth whitening is completely safe when done under the supervision of a dentist. We use dentist-approved products that minimize sensitivity and protect your enamel. Store-bought whitening kits can sometimes irritate your teeth and gums. But we take extra care with our treatments to keep you comfortable and safe throughout the process.

How Long Do Whitening Results Last?

The longevity of your whitening results depends on your habits and lifestyle. On average, results can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years. Avoid staining foods and drinks quit smoking, and brush your teeth more than two times a day to keep your smile bright. Touch-up treatments can also help extend your results.

Will Whitening Work on All Types of Stains?

Teeth whitening is most effective on surface stains caused by food, drinks, and smoking. However, it won’t work as well on intrinsic stains (stains inside the tooth) caused by medications, trauma, or excessive fluoride use. In these cases, we may recommend alternative treatments like veneers or bonding.

Does Teeth Whitening Cause Sensitivity?

Some patients might feel a little sensitivity after whitening, but it’s usually mild and goes away quickly. We use desensitizing agents during in-office treatments to minimize discomfort. If you’re prone to sensitivity, let us know. We can adjust your treatment plan to keep you comfortable.

Can I Whiten My Teeth If I Have Dental Work?

Teeth whitening only works on natural tooth enamel, so it won’t change the color of crowns, veneers, or fillings. We’ll help you create a plan that ensures a uniform, natural-looking smile if you already have dental work. Sometimes, this may involve replacing old restorations to match your newly whitened teeth. Most of the time, we just brighten your teeth to match your new restorations.

What’s the Difference Between In-Office and At-Home Whitening?

In-office whitening delivers amazing results in just one appointment. We use stronger whitening agents and tools like LED lights to make your smile shine fast. At-home whitening kits are more gradual but still effective. They allow you to whiten your teeth on your own schedule. Both options are safe and effective, but we’ll help you choose the one that fits your lifestyle and goals.

Can I Whiten My Teeth While Pregnant or Nursing?

While teeth whitening is generally safe, we recommend avoiding it during pregnancy or while nursing. Hormonal changes during this time can make your gums more sensitive. It’s best to minimize any unnecessary dental procedures. We can discuss safe alternatives or help you plan for whitening after this special phase of life.

Can I Whiten My Teeth If I Have Sensitive Teeth?

Yes, you can still whiten your teeth if you have sensitivity. We offer gentle whitening options and use desensitizing agents to minimize discomfort. If you’re concerned about sensitivity, let us know. We can customize your treatment plan to ensure you’re comfortable while still achieving a brighter smile.
