At-home whitening is the more popular approach today. we take an impression of your teeth and makes a custom-fitted tray, which you fill with a whitening gel and wear up to two hours daily or at night for about two weeks. Many whitening kits today contain a solution of 10-15% carbamide peroxide. When done under the supervision of us, at-home whitening is very effective.
In-office whitening
Quick and effective procedure. This procedure takes from 30 minutes to one hour per visit, and you may have to come for several visits to achieve the desired whiteness. To protect your mouth, a gel-like substance may be applied to your gums and a rubber "shield" may be placed around the necks of the teeth. An oxidizing agent (the bleaching solution) is then applied to your teeth. Sometimes, a special light is used at five-minute intervals to help activate the whitening agent.
