Professional Teeth Whitening In Highlands Ranch, CO

Our office currently offers two different types of professional whitening services: in-office KoR whitening treatments and custom-made trays to use at home with ZOOM whitening.

In-office. The KOR system starts by covering up vulnerable areas inside the mouth, including the lips and gums, to prevent exposure to the peroxide. Then, we apply a high-concentrate hydrogen peroxide gel directly to the teeth and activate it. You will rest comfortably (and watch a movie if you’d like) for a short time until the gel does its work. Then we remove the coverings and rinse the gel away. The in-office whitening procedure takes about 90 minutes. You also receive take-home trays so you can do touch-ups as needed to maintain your beautiful smile.

Custom-made trays. We will take a custom mold of your teeth to make clear trays that you take home, along with ZOOM whitening gel. These trays will help minimize the risk of whitening gel affecting your gums or mouth and you can whiten your teeth from the comfort of your home. All you have to do is place the whitening gel inside the trays and place the trays in your mouth.

FAQ's

  • What are the benefits of teeth whitening?

    Teeth whitening brightens your smile which can raise confidence, and help you appear healthier and happier, and younger—even more energetic. This can go a long way in improving your overall appearance and can sometimes be achieved in just one treatment.

  • Is teeth whitening safe?

    In general teeth whitening is considered to be safe. Professional teeth whitening treatments are the safest option for your teeth. If you are using at-home teeth whitening solutions, it's important to be careful not to overdo it. For abrasive whiteners, it's important to not use them too often or too aggressively as this can damage your enamel. If using chemical whiteners, use strips that have a lower concentration of the chemical, and don't leave them on for too long. This can cause tooth sensitivity and discomfort in the gums.
