In-Office Teeth Whitening Louisville, KY

What if we told you that you could achieve a brighter smile in just one hour? While it may seem too good to be true, MINT dentistry in Louisville, KY makes it happen with professional teeth whitening. Many habits can cause a smile that looks yellow or dull, including drinking coffee and red wine. To remove years of stains, MINT dentistry performs professional in-office teeth whitening to brighten your teeth so you are more confident about your smile. In-office teeth whitening is a quick cosmetic dentistry procedure to dramatically brighten your enamel by several shades in one appointment. Using state-of-the-art dental techniques and equipment, our team of board-certified dental professionals will give you sexy teeth. To schedule an appointment, contact MINT dentistry in Louisville, KY.

In-office teeth whitening is a quick and effective cosmetic treatment that can whiten your teeth in a single appointment. Before you have teeth whitening, your dentist will make sure your teeth are healthy enough. Then, your team will listen to your concerns and goals before making treatment recommendations. Professional teeth whitening can give you fast, dramatic results by reducing stains that have formed within your natural tooth enamel. Unlike store-bought whitening treatments, your teeth whitening at MINT dentistry will be customized based on your needs.

MINT dentistry performs in-office teeth whitening in our modern treatment rooms without anesthesia; however, sedation options are available for patients with a strong gag reflex or dental anxiety. Your teeth need to get cleaned and dried before the procedure so that the whitening product can be applied evenly. Afterward, a protective covering will be placed over your gums while your eyes are shielded with special eyewear. A member of our Louisville, KY staff will paint a professional-strength whitening gel to your enamel and expose your teeth to our special teeth lamp. The combination of the gel and the light works to break down the discoloration in the teeth. Depending upon your current enamel color and desired result, this procedure could be completed 2 – 3 times. As soon as your procedure is complete, the rest of the gel and gum barrier will be removed before your teeth are rinsed.

Patients can expect to return to their normal daily routine after their teeth whitening appointment unless a sedation method is used. However, you should stay away from products that may stain your teeth (lipstick, coffee, tobacco products) for at least 48 hours after your treatment. You will encounter some sensitivity to hot and cold, but this will only continue for 3 – 5 days. To keep your results, you need to brush your teeth as soon as possible after having staining food and drinks in addition to tobacco products. At home, you should stick to a daily oral hygiene regimen, including cleaning and flossing to prevent new stains. Dental cleanings twice a year at our Louisville, KY office will also help to reduce new stains to help keep your teeth looking bright. If you need to refresh your results after a couple of years, you can schedule another professional whitening procedure or ask a MINT dentistry staff member about home teeth whitening choices.

Because teeth whitening is considered a cosmetic procedure, dental insurance may not cover any of the costs. During your initial consultation at our Louisville, KY facility, we will go over cost estimates and payment options. We are committed to giving you the beautiful smile you desire. Ask a staff member about our cosmetic dentistry specials, medical financing, or our MINT Discount Plan, which can help make treatments for brightening your smile even more budget-friendly.

MINT dentistry offers in-office teeth whitening to help patients remove years of stains to achieve a brighter smile with long-lasting results. Whether you're interested in seeing a natural result or a bright Hollywood smile, your team of MINT dentistry professionals will personalize your in-office teeth whitening treatment to fit your needs and goals.
