Teeth Whitening Kanata

Professional teeth whitening is a safe, effective way to lighten the shade of your teeth and eliminate stubborn stains caused by aging, coffee, tea, red wine, tobacco, or certain medications. At Kanata Highlands Dental Care, we offer both fast in-office whitening treatments and convenient custom take-home kits to help you achieve a noticeably brighter smile.

Professional In-Office Teeth Whitening

In-office teeth whitening is the fastest way to dramatically brighten your smile—capable of lightening your teeth by 6 to 10 shades in a single visit. Using a professional-grade, light-activated whitening gel containing hydrogen peroxide, this treatment typically takes 30 to 90 minutes. Depending on your desired shade and initial discoloration, full results can be achieved in 1 to 3 office visits.

Custom Take-Home Teeth Whitening Kits

If you prefer to whiten your teeth gradually in the comfort of your home, our dentists create custom-fitted mouth trays crafted from precise impressions of your teeth. We provide a professional-grade bleaching gel and personalized instructions on how long to wear the trays daily. Custom trays ensure even coverage while preventing excess gel from touching your gums and causing irritation.

Risks, Precautions, and Maintenance

Both in-office and take-home whitening treatments are safe under professional dental supervision. However, there are a few important considerations:

• Temporary Tooth Sensitivity: Some patients experience mild, temporary tooth sensitivity or gum awareness during treatment. This side effect is normal and typically subsides within a few days post-treatment.
• Pregnancy & Nursing: Teeth whitening treatments are not recommended for individuals who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
• Long-Term Maintenance: Because teeth whitening results are not permanent, routine touch-up treatments and good daily oral hygiene are recommended to maintain your preferred shade.
