Teeth Whitening Services in Gilbert, AZ
Who doesn’t want a brighter smile? Teeth whitening can enhance your smile if your teeth are stained or you simply hope to restore your smile’s brilliance. No matter your reasoning, it’s widely known that a beautiful smile can mean everything for your confidence and the impression you make. You deserve to be proud of the way you look.
Smile Crafters has many safe and effective teeth whitening services, providing lasting results and a smile that looks good on you.
Teeth Whitening Treatment Options
Today’s technologies provide a wide variety of whitening options to fit every need and budget. Whitening removes stains and buildup that cause a yellow or brown appearance, while bleaching whitens teeth beyond their natural color. Both result in a bright, beautiful smile.
Our practice offers the following options:
In-Office Bleaching
This procedure is ideal if you want immediate, long-lasting results. The whole process takes about two hours from start to finish, taking little time out of busy lives.
For this treatment, a protective gel is applied to your gums to protect the soft tissue. Then, a special light-activated gel is applied to your teeth, and a laser light is used to enhance the action of the agent. The whitening gel can lighten your teeth several shades during one appointment.
Finally, you will receive a take-home gel and instructions to keep your smile bright. The result is dramatically whiter teeth that will last for years.
We recommend in-office bleaching for patients who want fast results or will get dental services like a crown or bridge soon. The bleaching procedure will lighten your natural teeth. Then, we can select a crown or bridge that matches this new shade. Prosthetic teeth cannot be bleached.
Custom Tray Whitening
Tray whitening is a less-expensive and more convenient at-home whitening treatment. The results are more gradual — it may take a few weeks to notice a difference in your teeth shade.
This procedure starts with our team taking an impression of your mouth at our office in order to create a customized clear tray. The custom fit makes the tray more comfortable for you to use and allows the whitening gel to work more effectively. Trays are generally ready within a few days, and instructions are given on how to apply the gel in the trays and how often to use it. The process involves applying the whitening gel to the tray and wearing the tray for a certain number of hours per day.
You can achieve maximum whitening results and a dazzling smile at the end of the set treatment period. An occasional treatment can be used to maintain the new smile.
We recommend tray whitening if you want to whiten your smile at home. After we fit you for the tray in our office, you can whiten your teeth in the comfort of your home, no appointments needed.
Go Tray Whitening Kits
Go Tray whitening kits offer professional teeth whitening in a convenient at-home solution. These trays are one size fits all, so you won't need to make an appointment for a fitting or buy bleach syringes.
The kit has everything you'll need from start to finish, including:
- Two UltraFit trays with molar-to-molar coverage and a comfortable fit.
- Teeth whitening gel with potassium nitrate and fluoride.
You can choose between 10% and 15% peroxide levels based on your preferred wear time, as well as two flavors. Come into the Smile Crafters office and pick up a Go Tray kit to start whitening your smile at home.
Commercial Whitening Products
There are plenty of over-the-counter options available, including:
- Whitening strips: Teeth whitening strips have a professional-grade whitening gel you apply directly to your teeth. After a certain amount of time, you remove the strip.
- Whitening toothpaste: Teeth whitening toothpaste has natural bleaching agents like hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide that break down the molecules that cause discoloration and prevent new stains from forming. Using this toothpaste daily can whiten your teeth over time.
Despite their affordability and convenience, whitening strips and toothpaste have some concerns to consider. Neither can be tailored to your teeth whitening needs, possibly leading to uneven results. These products can also be uncomfortable — certain ingredients in over-the-counter strips can lead to sensitivity.
Smile Crafters can provide competitive rates and knowledgeable suggestions for your teeth whitening needs. Let us help you choose the best and most convenient whitening option for you. Please consult us before you use over-the-counter whitening treatments.
How to Keep Your Teeth White
How long the results from teeth whitening services last depends on many factors. Following proper oral hygiene can help you keep your teeth as white as possible for longer. Preserve your teeth bleaching results by following these tips:
- Brush your teeth twice a day.
- Floss once a day.
- Limit how many teeth-staining beverages you drink, like coffee, red wine and tea.
- Use a straw when you drink beverages that can stain your teeth.
- Limit or avoid smoking.
- Use at-home whitening treatments with your dentist's approval.
- Visit Smile Crafters regularly for teeth cleaning services to remove plaque and surface stains.
