Who Is a Good Candidate for Teeth Whitening?

Over the years, have your teeth begun to discolor? Whether it’s due to frequent coffee consumption, the medications you’re taking, or the natural aging process, we have good news: you may be a candidate for professional teeth whitening! During your consultation with Dr. Caroline Irons, our talented and experienced cosmetic dentist, she will learn about your aesthetic concerns, take a look at your teeth and gums, ask you a few questions about your smile goals, and determine if this is the ideal cosmetic dentistry treatment for you.

How Does Teeth Whitening Work?

The first step is the consultation, which is when we will determine if you’re a good candidate for teeth whitening. If the answer is “yes,” then we will move on to the next step: determining whether an in-office or take-home treatment is best. In the meantime, you can read on to learn a little more about each.
