Brighten Your Smile with Professional Teeth Whitening​

Professional teeth whitening at Austin Family Dentistry uses advanced whitening agents that are applied to your teeth under controlled conditions. These agents break down stains on the enamel and dentin layers, resulting in a noticeably brighter smile. Our treatments are designed to be quick, safe, and highly effective, often delivering results in just one session.

Yes, teeth whitening is safe when performed by a qualified dental professional. At Austin Family Dentistry, we use FDA-approved whitening products and ensure that the procedure is tailored to your dental needs, minimizing any risk of sensitivity or discomfort.

The longevity of your teeth whitening results depends on your oral hygiene and lifestyle habits. Typically, results can last anywhere from six months to two years. To maintain your bright smile, avoid foods and drinks that can stain your teeth, such as coffee, tea, and red wine, and consider touch-up treatments as recommended by your dentist.

Some patients may experience mild sensitivity after the whitening treatment, but this is usually temporary and should subside within a few days. We offer desensitizing treatments to help manage any discomfort and ensure a pleasant experience.

Results vary depending on the initial shade of your teeth and the type of stains present. On average, patients can expect their teeth to become 3 to 8 shades whiter after professional treatment. During your consultation, we’ll discuss your goals and provide a realistic expectation of your results.

Professional teeth whitening offers more powerful and controlled results compared to over-the-counter products. Our treatments are tailored to your specific needs and are overseen by dental professionals to ensure maximum effectiveness and safety. Over-the-counter products, while convenient, often have lower concentrations of whitening agents and may not deliver the same level of whitening or could even cause uneven results.

The cost of teeth whitening varies depending on the type of treatment and the extent of whitening needed. At Austin Family Dentistry, we offer competitive pricing and flexible payment options. During your consultation, we’ll provide a detailed estimate based on your individual needs.

To maintain your whitening results, brush and floss regularly, avoid foods and drinks that stain teeth, and visit us for regular cleanings. We also recommend touch-up treatments every few months, which can be done at home with our custom whitening trays or with a quick in-office visit.
