Who is a Good Candidate for Teeth Whitening?

Plus, even if we find tooth decay, gum disease, or another untreated oral health problem during your exam, there’s a good chance that we will be able to provide the restorative care you need.
How Does Teeth Whitening Work?
We’re proud to offer two types of teeth whitening: in-office and take-home. We’ll discuss the benefits of each during your consultation so you can confidently decide which one is best for you. You can also learn more by reading on!
Take-Home Teeth Whitening
Whether you’re a teenager, in your mid-30s, or 90 years young, KoR® Teeth Whitening can provide the stunning results you never thought possible. The process involves a combination of dental office visits and custom-made trays you wear at home for two weeks. The patented KoR® Teeth Whitening gel breaks apart staining compounds, revealing a sparkling-white smile. Unlike other teeth-whitening systems, KoR® Teeth Whitening or Deep Bleaching™ boasts virtually no post-whitening sensitivity, and the results are entirely permanent. Once the process is done, you can touch up after your teeth cleanings 2-4 times a year to maintain the beautiful result.
In-Office Teeth Whitening
ZOOM2!® is the culmination of extensive research into light technology, chemical reaction to light, and years of traditional teeth-whitening experience. Combining this proprietary light technology (specially designed for tooth whitening) with a specifically formulated hydrogen peroxide gel, using a two-part delivery system, produces a teeth-whitening system that significantly reduces the time it takes to achieve dramatically whiter teeth.
Tips for Maintaining Your Brighter Smile
To make your results last for 6+ months, we recommend that you:
- Brush, floss, and rinse with mouthwash consistently
- Use a straw when drinking coffee, soda, and other dark-colored beverages
- Limit stain-causing foods, like BBQ sauce, dark chocolate, and beets
- Schedule a dental visit every six months
- Get touch-up whitening treatments as needed
Understanding the Cost of Teeth Whitening
Many people want to brighten their smiles but are worried they can’t afford teeth whitening, so they avoid scheduling a consultation. It’s natural to wonder how much you might spend to achieve the perfect shade, but the answer can vary depending on your unique circumstances.

Factors That Affect the Cost of Teeth Whitening
Although teeth whitening products usually do have a set pricing structure, there are also several factors that can potentially impact how many treatments are required to achieve the intended outcome, including:
- The severity of the stains. Darker yellow or brown enamel is more likely to require multiple applications to produce the desired results, which can increase your final invoice.
- Other necessary treatments. Our team examines your mouth before providing cosmetics, and you’ll be responsible for the cost of any procedures required to address any problems, such as cavities or gum disease.
- The type of discoloration. Extrinsic stains in your enamel from consuming deeply toned foods may respond better to bleach than intrinsic stains in the lower layers of dentin, which might require repeated treatments to resolve.
Types of Teeth Whitening and What They Usually Cost
There are potentially a variety of methods to choose from when it comes to brightening your grin, which are outlined in more detail with their typical rates below:
- In-office procedures. Our team offers in-office treatments using ultra-concentrated ZOOM2!® gels and advanced technology to potentially lighten your smile by several shades in a single visit, which can range between $400 and $800+.
- Professional take-home kits. We can also provide all the KoR® Teeth Whitening or Deep Bleaching™ supplies needed to achieve quality outcomes from the comfort of your living space, often for several hundred dollars.
- Over-the-counter trays. It’s sometimes possible to purchase one-size-fits-all whitening trays for $100 or less.
- Store-bought solutions. Boxes of strips and gels from your local store or pharmacy might go for $20 to $40.
Store-Bought vs. Professional Teeth Whitening
You’re not the first patient to wonder whether it’s worth investing in professional cosmetic services when there are cheaper options readily available for purchase. However, when it comes to upgrading your grin, product quality is often reflected in its price.
For instance, commercial-grade strips and gels might cost less, but they often contain diluted bleaches that are less effective and can lead to uneven coloration and increased sensitivity. Meanwhile, our team uses professional-strength solutions designed to minimize discomfort and custom-fitted trays to achieve more accurate results. Not only that, but we’ll treat any oral issues, like tooth decay or periodontal problems, so your smile is as healthy as it is bright and beautiful.
Options for Making Teeth Whitening Affordable
Most dental insurance policies don’t include cosmetic procedures because they’re generally intended to enhance your appearance more than your oral health. But our compassionate team believes everyone deserves a sparkling smile they can be confident in, and we don’t want your current financial situation to hold you back.
If you’re concerned about affording this service, you might benefit from one of the following options:
- In-House Membership. We offer memberships for adults and children at a low monthly rate that include access to routine preventive care, such as exams, cleanings, and imaging, as well as additional discounts on other services we provide.
- Flexible Financing. We also gladly accept payment plans through third-party financers, such as CareCredit, Lending Club, and many more! These low- to no-interest plans allow you to divide your total invoice into more manageable installments over a designated period if your application is approved.
