Houston Teeth Whitening

In a nation that practically runs on caffeine, spicy food, and sweets, tooth discoloration is unavoidable. Hygiene habits and time can erode the protective enamel that surrounds teeth, leaving them vulnerable to stain and allowing the color of the tooth’s core minerals to show through. Even a few light shades of yellow are enough to dim smiles. Many people would be surprised at how easy it truly is to regain that brighter smile.

Not all teeth whitening products are created equal. Many over-the-counter whitening products fail to have any effect on the interior stains that can also discolor teeth. At Lakewood Dentistry, we use only the latest and most advanced whitening products. We also offer highly effective in-house treatments, along with creating custom trays and treatment plans.

Tooth whitening, like most dental treatments, requires minor upkeep. This can mean a few periodic visits to our office or using a take home whitening kit. All whitening products are unique. Consult with our office to find the best fit for your situation.

Types of Teeth Whitening

There are many popular methods of whitening teeth. A tooth bleaching is best done using our in-house treatments or take home kits. This process brightens teeth well past their natural shade. It can offer immediate results, depending on the natural shade of your teeth. This is often done with the aid of mouth trays, which apply the bleaching gel, and a laser that activates the whitening properties.

Studies have shown that whitening does not damage the surface or structure of the tooth. It is a safe method that can give you the results you are looking for. We offer many types of whitening services, including, but not limited to the following:

• Zoom! 2 is popular for the immediate results it can provide. Patients using this product typically see immediate results about 10 shades whiter in just one visit. This treatment applies a gel over the surface of the teeth. A special lamp is used to activate the oxygen in the gel, which works to gently bleach teeth. It is typically done in 3 15-minute sessions.


• Rembrandt One Hour Smile Whitening is a one visit procedure that is great for sensitive teeth, providing a safe and powerful whitening solution.


• Opalescence is a potassium nitrate and fluoride based solution that not only whitens teeth, but strengthens enamel and increases defense against cavity. It is chemically activated and does not require special lamps or machines. This treatment takes about an hour and provides powerful results.


• Nite White is a gel based solution that is applied and worn in a custom crafted tray at night. It whitens teeth while reinforcing the enamel and filling microscopic blemishes.


• Day White is a take home kit that is convenient for those on the go. The custom made tray and gel are nearly inconspicuous. It is applied in period 30-minute sessions, with bright results.

Used with supervision or under direction of our experienced staff, the whitening systems we provide can give you the smile that you deserve.
