Teeth whitening is a simple cosmetic dentistry solution that can dramatically transform your smile. Performed as a stand-alone procedure or as part of smile rehabilitation, teeth whitening takes years off of your smile by lifting away yellow or brown stains to reveal brighter, whiter teeth. At Cardinal Park Family Dental Care, we are excited to offer smile transformation with professional grade in-office and take-home teeth whitening systems to Leesburg, VA patients. Your smile is one of your best assets. Give it a powerful, confident boost with one of our effective teeth whitening options!
In-office teeth whitening is designed to jumpstart the whitening process, lightening your teeth by up to six to eight shades within about an hour. Our highly trained team isolates your teeth, taking special care to protect your soft tissues. We then apply our power-boosting Opalescence® teeth whitening solution to your teeth, and let it gently erase stains while you rest comfortably in one of our state-of-the-art treatment rooms. With in-office teeth whitening, you are free to sit back, relax and enjoy your brand new smile!
Would you prefer to whiten on your own time, or at a more gradual pace? Our Opalescence take-home whitening kits are the perfect option for many Leesburg, VA, patients. To begin the teeth whitening process, we capture impressions of your upper and lower teeth, from which we create comfortable teeth whitening trays. We then deliver your trays and teeth whitening gel along with instructions for use and send you on your way to achieve the smile of your dreams.
Both of our professional systems use Opalescence® whitening gel. The right choice depends on your schedule, your goals and how sensitive your teeth are:
Whitening works on natural tooth enamel, so it will not change the color of crowns, veneers or tooth-colored fillings. If your discoloration is deep or you also want to change the shape of your teeth, porcelain veneers may be a better fit.
The cost of teeth whitening in Leesburg, VA, depends on a few things, and we will give you a clear price at your consultation:
Teeth whitening is a cosmetic treatment, so it is not usually covered by dental insurance. Visit our affordability page to learn about payment options.
Results usually last from several months to a few years. It depends on your habits. Coffee, tea, red wine and tobacco stain teeth faster, while good brushing and occasional touch-ups keep your smile bright longer.
Some patients feel temporary sensitivity during or after whitening. It usually fades within a few days. If you already have sensitive teeth, let us know so we can adjust your treatment or recommend take-home whitening at a gentler pace.
Yes. Professional whitening is supervised by our dental team, and we protect your gums during in-office treatment. We also check your teeth first so whitening does not irritate untreated cavities or gum problems.
Professional gels are more effective than most over-the-counter products, and custom trays fit your teeth so the gel covers them evenly. You get faster, more even results with guidance from a dentist.
Most adults with healthy teeth and gums and stains from food, drinks, smoking or aging are good candidates. Whitening is not recommended during pregnancy or while nursing. Stains caused by medication or injury may respond better to other cosmetic treatments.
Teeth whitening is often the first step in a smile makeover. Pair it with other treatments for a complete transformation:
