Teeth Whitening

Professional whitening brightens your smile by several shades in a single in-office visit. The treatment is comfortable for most patients, with some experiencing mild sensitivity that resolves within a day or two.

At Troy Meadows Dental, in-office teeth whitening is completed in a single appointment lasting approximately 60–90 minutes, while custom take-home whitening trays deliver results over the course of one to two weeks with daily use.

Teeth Whitening at Troy Meadows Dental works on natural tooth enamel but will not change the color of existing crowns, veneers, or fillings, which is worth considering if visible restorations are present. Some patients experience temporary tooth sensitivity following treatment, and avoiding staining foods and beverages in the days after whitening helps maximize and prolong the results.

Teeth whitening recovery at Troy Meadows Dental requires no downtime, and patients can return to their normal routine immediately following treatment. Some temporary tooth sensitivity is common in the first day or two after whitening, and avoiding heavily pigmented foods and beverages in the days following treatment helps protect and extend the results.
