Teeth Whitening Near You

Professional teeth whitening can restore your beautiful, confident smile if you have stained, dull or discolored teeth. Everyday habits like coffee, tea, red wine or tobacco, as well as eating some of these foods, can leave stains behind that will persist for years to come. As enamel wears down with age, the darker layer beneath it, called dentin, becomes more visible, causing your teeth to look less vibrant.

Why Teeth Become Discolored

Teeth discolor for many reasons, and understanding the cause helps determine the most effective whitening method:

External (surface) stains

These stains build up on the enamel due to foods, drinks, and smoking. Coffee, tea, berries, soy sauce, and wine are the most common culprits. As enamel becomes more porous with age, these stains absorb more easily.

Internal (deep) stains

These stains originate inside the tooth and cannot be removed with brushing. Causes include certain medications, excessive fluoride (fluorosis), trauma, or developmental issues. Internal stains often require stronger whitening treatments.

Why Drugstore Whitening Often Falls Short

Many over-the-counter whitening toothpastes and kits can lighten teeth slightly but have limitations. A lot of whitening products in the market contain abrasives to help remove stains; however, if used too aggressively on the enamel, they can create an opening for bacteria, resulting in tooth decay. Professional whitening kits are usually not as strong as home-use whitening kits, and they typically do not provide immediate results or effectively treat deeper enamel stains.

Bleaching agents also struggle to lighten certain types of stains, especially brown, gray, or deeply pitted teeth. They also will not whiten crowns, bridges, fillings, veneers, or bonding; these restorations may require replacement for a fully uniform smile.

Aesthetic Family Dental has been my dentist for over a year and the service they provide is top tier. Front desk concierge is very polite, patient and very accommodating. To sum up the Docs review(both of them), I feel asleep during my appointment and I got a root canal. With that being said they do a VERY great job with their patients. Need a Dentist? This is where you want to come. Stay blessed

I would come here even if I didn't need to. The staff is amazing sweet and caring but also very knowledgeable and know what they are doing. I never had wait for very long but the office and schedule was always full. The dentist are almost magical and extremely talented. My case was not easy and I had seen dozen or so dentist prior to coming here and was let down by all of them. The dentist here are understanding, considerate and very patient. My issues were difficult to talk about and even more difficult to show and they were very considerate of that at every stage. Amazing place everyone should come here. Thank you to all the staff and dentist your guys are amazing.
