Whitening treatments improve your teeth appearance and your overall smile by reducing discoloration
Suitable for teens, adults, and even some children with mature teeth, it's especially popular for those seeking results without visible hardware. Treatment duration varies from 6 months for minor corrections to 18-24 months for more complex cases, all while allowing full removability for meals, sports, and oral care routines.
Teeth whitening lasts anywhere from 6 months to 3 years. Increase the lifespan of your whitening treatment by practicing good oral hygiene, attending regular dental cleanings, and reducing your exposure to staining foods, drinks, and tobacco products.

The in-office treatment will instantly and dramatically whiten your teeth by up to 10 shades in one session, making it desirable for special occasions like weddings or graduations. During your appointment, we will utilize a cheek retractor and protective gel to keep the bleaching agent away from the soft tissue inside of your mouth.
Take-home whitening is a great option for those with sensitive teeth, busy schedules, or who don’t need an instant drastic whitening treatment. One appointment is required so we can take impressions of your teeth. These impressions enable us to have a dental lab create custom-fit whitening trays that fit snugly over your teeth and don’t come into contact with your gums, unlike over-the-counter trays which can damage your soft tissue.
Our experienced team excels in family dentistry, making orthodontics accessible and stress-free for busy parents and kids alike. Convenient hours and a welcoming environment set us apart for Santee's vibrant community.
This depends on the whitening treatment you get. In-office whitening treatment will produce the most noticeable instant change, lightening your teeth by up to 10 shades in one hour. While the take-home treatment is just as effective at whitening your teeth, it will be a gradual process, slowly whitening your teeth each day over 2 weeks.
