Professional Teeth Whitening Treatment

Have yellowed or stained teeth? We’ll fix that for you.

Teeth that are yellowed or stained can have a negative impact on your whole appearance, making you look older or less healthy than you really are. If your teeth have lost their pearly white luster due to stains, aging, or other factors, one of the quickest and easiest ways to bring vitality back to your smile is teeth whitening. At Shadowridge Dental, patients in San Marcos, CA and the surrounding areas of Vista, Carlsbad, and Encinitas can achieve remarkable results in just a short period of time with our professional teeth whitening services.

Whitening Options

Each person’s smile is unique, which is why we offer multiple teeth bleaching services to meet a wide array of needs.

In-office whitening: This is a great option for patients who want dramatic results fast. Whether you have a big event coming up, such as a wedding, reunion, or conference, or are simply tired of having yellowed teeth and want whiter teeth in a short amount of time, in-office whitening might be right for you. We use a cheek retractor device and place a protective coating on your gums to keep the whitening gel off of your sensitive gums and soft tissues, and then paint the tooth whitening gel onto your teeth. A special light is then used to activate the gel. Depending on the amount of staining and your desired end results, we may repeat this process a few times in the same visit to help you achieve teeth that are several shades lighter, all in just about an hour!

Take-home whitening trays: These are a terrific choice for patients who want a more gradual approach to whitening. We make customized trays that are designed to fit your specific mouth perfectly, which are more comfortable than over-the-counter whitening options and help protect your gums from irritation by keeping the whitening gel where it belongs – on your teeth, not on your gums. We will provide you with a medical-grade whitening gel to use with your custom trays for a specific amount of time each day. After just a couple of weeks, you will have the bright, white smile you deserve!

A combination: You can do a combined treatment plan where we’ll do in-office whitening first and then provide you with take-home trays that you can use for touch-ups if your teeth start to stain again. With this option, you can rapidly transform your smile and maintain your amazing results long-term.
