Teeth Whitening
Your smile is one of the first things people notice, and stained or discolored teeth can often send the wrong message. At Atlantic Dental Partners, we understand that a brighter smile can enhance your appearance, boost your self-confidence, and leave a lasting impression. We offer professional teeth whitening treatments tailored to your needs and goals. Whether you’re preparing for a special event or just want to refresh your smile, our whitening services offer fast, safe, and dramatic results you can rely on.
We proudly serve patients throughout Greater Boston, with modern dental offices in Jamaica Plain and Malden, MA. Our cosmetic dental team is highly trained in advanced whitening systems that go beyond surface-level improvements to transform your smile.
What Is Professional Teeth Whitening?
Professional teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental procedure designed to remove stains and discoloration from the enamel and dentin of your teeth. It uses medical-grade bleaching agents, often hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide, which penetrate the enamel to break down stain compounds and lighten the overall tooth color.
At Atlantic Dental Partners, we use trusted whitening systems that are:
- Clinically tested and FDA-approved
- Safe for enamel and soft tissues
- Customizable based on your shade goals and tooth sensitivity
- Designed to deliver consistent, even results
Compared to drugstore whitening strips, pens, or toothpaste, our treatments are stronger, safer, and longer-lasting, making them a wise choice for those who want immediate, professional-grade results with expert supervision.
Why Teeth Become Discolored
Tooth discoloration is more common than most people realize and can result from various everyday habits or medical conditions. Understanding the cause helps determine the most effective approach to whitening.
Common Causes of Tooth Discoloration:
- Food & Drink: Coffee, tea, red wine, soda, berries, and sauces can stain enamel over time.
- Tobacco Use: Smoking or chewing tobacco is a major contributor to yellow and brown stains.
- Aging: As we age, the enamel thins, exposing the yellowish dentin beneath.
- Medications: Certain antibiotics, such as tetracycline, antihistamines, and chemotherapy, can cause intrinsic discoloration.
- Fluorosis: Excessive fluoride exposure during tooth development may lead to white or brown spots.
- Poor Oral Hygiene: Inadequate brushing and flossing allow plaque and tartar to build up, dulling your smile.
At your whitening consultation, our team will identify the root cause of your discoloration and recommend the safest and most effective treatment to brighten your smile.
What Are My Whitening Options?
At Atlantic Dental Partners, we offer two high-quality whitening solutions tailored to your lifestyle, budget, and desired timeframe for results.
Our most popular and influential treatment, in-office whitening, delivers immediate and dramatic results in just one visit. We apply a high-strength bleaching gel to your teeth and use a specialized LED light to activate the whitening agents, safely lifting deep stains from the enamel. Most patients leave with a 6–8 shade lighter smile in under an hour.
Do you prefer the flexibility of whitening at home? Our take-home kits include custom-made trays, precisely fitted to your teeth, and professional-grade whitening gel. You wear the trays daily for 30–60 minutes over 1–2 weeks, achieving gradual and natural-looking brightness. These kits are ideal for maintaining results after in-office whitening or for patients with mild to moderate staining.
Is Your Smile Ready for the Spotlight?
You’re not alone if you’ve ever looked in the mirror and wished your teeth were a little whiter. Whether it’s years of sipping coffee, the effects of aging, or simply wanting to look your best for an upcoming event, teeth whitening can help you rediscover the brilliance of your natural smile.
This treatment is ideal for people who :
- Want to boost their confidence and look polished in photos
- Are you preparing for weddings, interviews, or significant life moments
- Feel their smile no longer reflects their vibrant personality
- Want a fast, noticeable change without invasive procedures
Even if you’ve tried whitening strips or toothpastes with minimal results, our professional whitening solutions are designed to go deeper, work faster, and deliver lasting brightness safely and comfortably. A short visit with us could be the confidence boost you didn’t know you needed.
What to Expect During Your Whitening Appointment
Here’s how our in-office whitening treatment works from start to finish:
- Consultation & Shade Assessment: We start by discussing your goals, reviewing your medical and dental history, and documenting your current tooth shade using a professional shade guide.
- Gum Protection: To protect your gums and soft tissues, we apply a special barrier that prevents irritation during whitening.
- Application of Whitening Gel: Our dentist applies a professional-strength whitening gel to the teeth. This gel may be activated using a blue LED light, depending on the system.
- Multiple Treatment Cycles: The gel may be reapplied multiple times during your visit, depending on your starting shade and desired level of whiteness.
- Rinse and Reveal: After your final cycle, we rinse your mouth and compare your results to your initial shade. Many patients are thrilled to see their smiles instantly become dramatically whiter.
How Long Do Whitening Results Last?
The longevity of your whitening results depends on your lifestyle and oral care habits. With proper maintenance, results typically last between 6 months and 2 years. Here’s how to maintain your brighter smile:
- Brush and floss daily
- Limit staining foods and drinks.
- Use a straw for beverages like coffee or soda
- Rinse your mouth after meals
- Schedule regular dental cleanings
- Use our take-home trays for periodic touch-ups
We’ll provide detailed post-whitening instructions to help you maintain your results for a glowing appearance.
