Coffee, wine, and time all take a toll on enamel shade — an in-office treatment resets it in about an hour. Smile Center Dentistry checks your enamel and gums before recommending a strength.
Whitening done without a dental exam first can mask decay or worsen sensitivity — we check both before treatment. A quick pre-treatment exam takes minutes and prevents a much worse outcome later.
Sensitive teeth get a gentler protocol; we don't push maximum strength on every patient by default. We adjust based on what your specific exam shows, not a default setting.
We check for cavities and gum recession before whitening, since treating over untreated decay can cause real pain. This exam is included in your visit, not billed as a separate add-on.
Both options use professional-grade gel, just at different concentrations and timelines. Some patients even combine both — an in-office boost followed by take-home maintenance.
We proactively manage sensitivity instead of waiting for you to call back in pain. We check in after your session if sensitivity was a concern going in.
Results and timelines vary by starting shade and enamel condition, and we're upfront about that.
One appointment, professional-grade gel, and a shade guide comparison before and after. We monitor sensitivity throughout the session rather than applying gel and walking away.
Trays molded to your exact bite let you whiten gradually at home with a lower-concentration gel. We check your progress at a follow-up to confirm even results.
We compare your current shade against a guide before treatment so you have a real baseline, not a guess. This appointment also flags any restorations that won't whiten along with natural teeth.
Desensitizing gel is applied before and after treatment for patients prone to sensitive teeth. Post-visit care instructions are given verbally and in writing.
A quick touch-up session every several months keeps results from fading back to baseline. We recommend a schedule based on your diet and habits, not a generic interval.
Deeper staining from certain medications or fluorosis responds differently than surface staining and may need a longer protocol. Realistic expectations are set at your shade consult, not after treatment disappoints you.
Call +1-866-227-2801 to schedule your shade consult and exam in Eustis.
This quick exam determines whether in-office or take-home whitening fits you better.
Sensitivity is monitored throughout, with gel timing adjusted if needed.
We schedule touch-ups based on your habits, not a generic calendar reminder.
"Did the in-office session before my wedding. Noticeably brighter after one hour and no sensitivity afterward."
"Take-home trays fit perfectly since they were molded to my actual bite, not a generic tray."
"Shade comparison before and after was a nice touch — I could actually see the difference, not just take their word for it."
"Honest about what whitening could and couldn't fix on my teeth — no overselling."
"Combined an in-office session with take-home trays for maintenance. Best of both approaches."
We compare your before-and-after against a shade guide so the improvement isn't just a guess. We'll give you a realistic expectation at your consult based on your current shade.
Overuse of drugstore products without supervision is more likely to cause sensitivity than a professionally managed treatment. We monitor your enamel condition throughout treatment, not just at the start.
Typically six months to two years depending on diet, smoking, and oral hygiene habits. A touch-up schedule tailored to your habits helps extend results significantly.
No — restorations don't whiten the same way natural enamel does, which we check for during your consult. Some patients choose to replace an older restoration afterward to match their new shade.
Yes, with an adjusted gel concentration and desensitizing treatment built into your visit. We check in during treatment and adjust if sensitivity becomes uncomfortable.
Both use professional-grade gel; the choice usually comes down to your timeline and sensitivity level. We'll walk through the trade-offs honestly at your shade consult.
