Why Choose Professional Whitening Over Store-Bought Options
While drugstore whitening strips or gels may promise convenience, they often lead to uneven results, gum irritation, and sensitivity. In contrast, professional whitening from Amber Arch Dental provides:
-
- Stronger, Faster Results: Our professional-grade whitening agents are more concentrated and carefully applied to deliver noticeable brightness in a single session.
-
- Even, Consistent Color: Custom trays ensure every tooth receives equal coverage for uniform results.
-
- Reduced Sensitivity: Dr. Phillips tailors the treatment strength to your comfort level, protecting your enamel and gums.
-
- Long-Lasting Brightness: With proper care, your results can last for months or longer.
Our whitening treatments are clinically proven to lighten teeth by several shades – safely, comfortably, and predictably.
Our Whitening Options
At Amber Arch Dental, we understand that every smile is unique. That’s why we offer both in-office whitening for fast results and take-home whitening kits for patients who prefer a gradual approach.
In-Office Whitening
If you’re looking for immediate, dramatic results, our in-office whitening treatment is the ideal choice. In just one visit, we can brighten your smile by several shades using professional-strength whitening gel and advanced light activation.
Dr. Phillips and our team apply the whitening gel precisely, protecting your gums and ensuring even results. This option is perfect for anyone preparing for a wedding, photos, or a special event.
Take-Home Whitening Kits
Prefer to whiten at your own pace? Our take-home kits include custom-fitted trays and professional-grade whitening gel that’s safe and easy to use. You’ll wear your trays for a set amount of time each day, gradually brightening your teeth over one to two weeks.
Because the trays are molded to your exact bite, they deliver consistent coverage and superior comfort compared to over-the-counter alternatives.
What to Expect During Whitening Treatment
Your comfort and safety come first at every step. Here’s what you can expect during your whitening experience at Amber Arch Dental:
-
- Consultation & Shade Assessment – We begin by evaluating your current tooth color, enamel health, and whitening goals.
-
- Preparation – We’ll clean your teeth to remove surface buildup and protect your gums from irritation.
-
- Application – Dr. Phillips applies the whitening agent evenly, activating it as needed to lift deep stains.
-
- Final Review – We’ll compare your before-and-after shades and provide care instructions to help maintain your new brightness.
Most patients experience little to no sensitivity, and the results are immediately visible after your appointment.
Maintaining Your Results
A radiant smile is easy to maintain with a few simple habits:
-
- Brush and floss daily to prevent new stains from forming.
-
- Rinse with water after coffee, tea, or wine.
-
- Limit tobacco use and dark-pigmented foods.
-
- Schedule regular cleanings at Amber Arch Dental to keep your enamel bright and healthy.
Dr. Phillips may also recommend occasional touch-up treatments using your custom trays to keep your smile at its best.
Is Whitening Right for You?
Professional whitening is a safe, effective option for most adults with healthy teeth and gums. However, it may not be suitable for patients with:
-
- Deep internal discoloration from trauma or medication
-
- Dental restorations like crowns, veneers, or fillings on visible teeth
-
- Active cavities or untreated gum disease
During your consultation, Dr. Phillips will carefully evaluate your teeth and discuss the best options to help you reach your cosmetic goals. In some cases, alternative treatments like veneers or bonding may provide more comprehensive results.
Confidence You Can See
A bright, confident smile can enhance the way you look and feel. At Amber Arch Dental, our whitening treatments are designed with the same precision, safety, and attention to detail that define every aspect of our care.
We take pride in helping patients achieve results that look natural, feel comfortable, and reflect the quality you expect from a practice that never cuts corners.
