Teeth Whitening in Tucson, AZ

Brighten Your Smile with Professional Whitening Treatments

Over time, teeth can become stained or discolored due to aging, diet, and lifestyle habits. At Aeris Family Dental, we offer professional teeth whitening solutions to help you achieve a brighter, more confident smile. Our safe and effective treatments remove stains and discoloration, leaving you with whiter teeth in just one visit.

If you’re looking for fast and noticeable results, our in-office and take-home teeth whitening options can help restore your smile’s natural brilliance.

Why Do Teeth Become Discolored?

Teeth discoloration is common and can be caused by various factors, including:

• Foods & Drinks: Coffee, tea, red wine, and dark-colored sodas can stain teeth.
• Smoking & Tobacco Use: Nicotine and tar cause deep staining.
• Aging: Over time, enamel wears down, revealing the yellowish dentin underneath.
• Medications: Some antibiotics and medical treatments can cause tooth discoloration.
• Poor Oral Hygiene: Inadequate brushing and flossing allow stains to build up.

If you’re noticing yellowing or stains, professional teeth whitening can reverse discoloration and restore your bright smile.

At Aeris Family Dental, we provide two effective teeth whitening treatments:

1. In-Office Teeth Whitening

2. Take-Home Whitening Kits

Our dentists will help you choose the best whitening option based on your goals and lifestyle.

Benefits of Professional Teeth Whitening

• Fast & Long-Lasting Results – Professional whitening is far more effective than store-bought products.
• Safe & Supervised – Our treatments are designed to protect enamel and gums.
• Customizable Shades – Achieve a natural, even whitening tailored to your preferences.
• Boosts Confidence – A whiter smile can make you feel more attractive and self-assured.

If you’re considering teeth whitening, schedule a dental cleaning and exam first to ensure optimal results.

Teeth Whitening vs. Over-the-Counter Products

Many people try store-bought whitening kits, but professional whitening offers superior results.

• Professional Whitening
  
  • Uses stronger whitening agents for faster, more dramatic results
  • Performed or supervised by a dentist for safe application
  • Longer-lasting effects than over-the-counter options
• Over-the-Counter Whitening
  
  • Lower concentration of whitening agents = weaker results
  • Takes longer to see noticeable changes
  • Can cause gum irritation or uneven whitening if not applied correctly

For safe, effective, and lasting results, professional teeth whitening is the best choice.

What to Expect During Your Teeth Whitening Treatment

In-Office Whitening Procedure

1. Preparation – A protective barrier is placed over your gums.
2. Whitening Application – A professional-strength whitening gel is applied to your teeth.
3. Activation – A special light enhances the whitening effect.
4. Final Rinse & Results – In about an hour, your teeth will be noticeably whiter!

Take-Home Whitening Process

1. Custom Whitening Trays – We take impressions to create trays that fit your teeth perfectly.
2. Whitening Gel Application – Use the provided gel in your trays daily as instructed.
3. Gradual Whitening – Within 1-2 weeks, your teeth will become visibly whiter.

Both options are designed to safely and effectively brighten your smile.

How to Maintain Your Whitened Smile

To extend the results of your whitening treatment, follow these simple tips:

• Brush and floss daily to remove surface stains.
• Limit coffee, tea, red wine, and dark sodas that cause staining.
• Use a straw when drinking stain-causing beverages.
• Avoid smoking and tobacco products to prevent discoloration.
• Schedule regular dental cleanings to keep your teeth bright.

With proper care, professional whitening results can last one year or longer.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Teeth Whitening?

Teeth whitening is ideal for most patients with healthy teeth and gums who want a brighter smile. However, it may not be suitable for those with:

• Severe tooth sensitivity
• Existing dental restorations (crowns, veneers, or fillings won’t whiten)
• Intrinsic stains (from medication or injury)

If you have restorations, consider porcelain veneers for a permanent bright smile.
