Teeth Whitening (Bleaching) in Fairfax, VA
We are running a teeth whitening Special.
We offer three choices for you!
In-Office Teeth Whitening
Like many people, you may be anxious to see results right away. You may also simply prefer to have this work performed in a professional setting. In-office teeth-whitening procedures are available, and they typically take around 45 minutes to complete.
The process is simple. Our seasoned dental assistant will cover your gums and lips to protect them from the whitening gel, which will be applied to the teeth. A special light will be directed at the teeth to speed up the whitening process. You can expect this to last for about 15 minutes. At that point, more gel will be applied, and the process will be repeated. The gel will be applied a final time, and you will be all set when the last 15-minute interval is complete.
In the dentist's office, you can expect the teeth-whitening procedure to lighten your teeth by five to ten shades, and you'll step out with a brighter, whiter smile.
Take-Home Kits from Your Dentist
A nice alternative to over-the-counter teeth-whitening kits are take-home kits provided by your dentist. They are actually similar to what you'll find in drugstores, but they contain stronger chemicals that produce results a lot more quickly. When used as directed, they can also whiten your teeth more dramatically. We can take an impression of your teeth to create custom trays for you to use at home.
The primary advantage of a take-home kit is that it's convenient. It's also reassuring to know that it has been approved by your dentist. After a routine oral exam or teeth cleaning appointment, your dentist will send you home with the kit. You will receive instructions on how to use it properly. A follow-up appointment may be scheduled to ensure that the kit has worked and that you're satisfied with the results.
Philips Zoom QuickPro
A new exciting choice created to provide our patients with a whitening solution that can be as convenient and affordable as over the counter options, Philips Zoom QuickPro can be applied in 5 minutes usually at the end of your routine cleaning appointment by your hygienist!
This new whitening system can deliver up to 4 shades of whitening, and a study conducted by Philips Zoom found patients experienced almost no sensitivity.
The 5-minute application procedure includes isolation of the tooth surfaces, application of the Philips Zoom QuickPro whitening varnish which contains the hydrogen peroxide, and then application of a patent sealant. The patient can then leave the office, and after 30 minutes the sealant and whitening varnish can be rinsed or brushed off the teeth.
