A brighter smile can instantly boost your confidence and refresh your appearance. At Avenue Dental Group in Spokane, WA, Dr. Navdeep Virk and Dr. Gregg Liedtka offer professional teeth whitening treatments that safely and effectively lift stains and discoloration.
Unlike over-the-counter products, professional whitening is customized to your teeth, monitored by dental professionals, and delivers more predictable, longer-lasting cosmetic results. At Avenue Dental Group in North Spokane, we offer both in-office and take-home whitening solutions so you can choose the option that best fits your goals, schedule, and sensitivity level. Our top whitening treatments include:
In-Office Teeth Whitening
In-office whitening is ideal for patients who want fast, dramatic results in a single visit. These treatments are performed under professional supervision to ensure comfort and safety.
- Philips Zoom!® Whitening. This popular system uses a powerful yet safe LED light to activate a professional-strength whitening gel. The process accelerates stain removal and can brighten your smile by up to several shades in just 45-60 minutes.
- Opalescence® Boost Whitening. Opalescence Boost is a chemically activated whitening treatment that requires no light. It contains potassium nitrate and fluoride to help strengthen enamel and reduce temporary sensitivity while delivering impressive results in about one hour.
- Laser Teeth Whitening. Laser whitening uses focused light energy to activate the whitening gel, speeding up the whitening process and delivering noticeable results in a single appointment. This option is often chosen for its efficiency and minimal gum irritation.
Take-Home Teeth Whitening
For our patients who prefer to whiten at their own pace, we offer professional take-home whitening systems that outperform store-bought products.
- Opalescence® Take-Home Whitening. Custom-made trays are crafted from impressions of your teeth for a precise, comfortable fit. Professional-strength Opalescence PF gel is available in multiple concentrations, allowing you to choose wear times ranging from 30 minutes to overnight.
- Philips Zoom!® Take-Home Whitening. This system also uses custom trays and professional gel to gradually brighten your smile over several days or weeks. It is commonly recommended to maintain results after in-office Zoom whitening.
What Causes Tooth Discoloration?
Tooth staining can occur for many reasons, including:
- Coffee, tea, red wine, and dark-colored foods
- Tobacco use
- Aging and natural enamel thinning
- Certain medications
During your consultation, we assess the cause of discoloration and recommend the whitening option that will provide the safest and most effective results.
Is Teeth Whitening Safe?
When performed under professional supervision, teeth whitening is safe and effective. Our dentists take your enamel health and sensitivity into account and will customize your treatment to minimize discomfort while maximizing results.
