Brighten Your Smile in Just One Visit

Professional teeth whitening is one of the most popular cosmetic dental treatments today, helping patients enhance the brightness of their smiles by 5 to 10 shades in just one session. Backed by the American Dental Association (ADA), teeth whitening has become a go-to solution for those looking to improve their appearance quickly and safely.
At our Huntington Beach dental office, teeth whitening treatments can be performed in-office for immediate results or prescribed as custom take-home kits. Unlike over-the-counter products, professional whitening uses clinical-grade whitening agents that deliver faster, safer, and more noticeable results — with reduced sensitivity and longer-lasting effects.
Did you know?
The teeth naturally darken as we age? Furthermore, certain foods, beverages, medications and habits can contribute to a darker, yellowed, or stained smile. However, it is possible to erase years of stains in a single professional whitening session and sustain those results for many years with proper maintenance. According to the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, professional whitening is best maintained by a combination of good oral care and take-home whitening treatments as recommended by your dentist.

Frequently asked questions

Am I a candidate for professional teeth whitening?
You may be a good candidate for professional teeth whitening if you have healthy teeth and gums but are experiencing staining or discoloration. This cosmetic treatment is ideal for individuals looking to enhance their smile quickly and safely. However, certain patients — including those who are pregnant or sensitive to whitening agents — may not qualify. Schedule a consultation with a Huntington Beach dentist to find out if teeth whitening is right for you.
Your whitening treatment will begin with a comprehensive cleaning and polishing to remove plaque and surface debris. Once your teeth are clean, your dentist will apply protective barriers to your gums and carefully coat your teeth with a professional-grade whitening agent. The product is activated and left on the teeth for several minutes before being rinsed away.

Most patients notice a visible improvement of several shades after just one visit, although results may vary depending on the natural tooth color and degree of staining.
Some tooth sensitivity is common after whitening and usually subsides within a day or two. To preserve your results, it’s best to avoid dark-colored beverages like coffee, tea, and red wine for at least 24 hours after your session. Your dentist may also provide a custom at-home whitening kit to help maintain your brighter smile over time, depending on your long-term goals.
