Convenient Whitening Designed Around Your Schedule

Take-home whitening kits allow you to whiten your teeth gradually from home while following instructions provided by your dental team. These kits are designed to be simple to use and can help improve the appearance of surface stains over time.


Before recommending whitening, your dentist will check your teeth and gums to make sure treatment is appropriate for your smile. This helps ensure your whitening plan supports both appearance and oral health.

How Teeth Whitening Works

What Your Whitening Treatment May Include

Take-home teeth whitening is a simple cosmetic option that allows you to brighten your smile gradually from home. Your dentist will first check your teeth and gums to make sure whitening is appropriate for your smile and explain how to use your kit safely.


The whitening process may include:


  • Smile Evaluation - Your dentist checks your teeth, gums, and current tooth shade.
  • Whitening Kit Instructions - Our team explains how to use your take-home whitening kit.
  • At-Home Whitening - You apply the whitening treatment at home as directed.
  • Progress and Maintenance - Your dentist may recommend tips to help maintain your brighter smile.


With good oral hygiene, regular dental cleanings, and limited stain-causing foods or drinks, whitening results can last longer. Your dentist can also let you know when touch-up whitening may be appropriate.
