If you’re tired of throwing money down the drain on OTC whitening products, your cosmetic dentist at JL Dental can help. Professional teeth whitening won’t cost you an arm or a leg, despite what you might have heard. Many factors affect the cost of teeth whitening, but we provide the financial solutions you need to revamp your pearly whites. You’ll invest in drastic, lasting results to turn back the clock on your smile.
No two mouths are identical, and there are many types of tooth discoloration. As a result, there’s no flat fee for teeth whitening. Your cosmetic dentist will examine your mouth to determine the source of your stains to ensure a whitening treatment will be effective. They’ll also check to ensure your teeth and gums are healthy, which is a requirement for any elective procedure. Based on the results of their examination, you can expect your estimate to include:
After creating your treatment plan, we will provide you with a personalized estimate and explain the fees. You’ll know exactly how much you’ll have to pay before committing to anything.
Every whitening system has different costs. Our office offers take-home teeth whitening, allowing you to achieve in-office results from the comfort of your couch. After your initial consultation and any preliminary treatments, your cosmetic dentist will provide you with custom-fit trays and a professional-strength whitening agent. You’ll use the kit daily for about 2 weeks. Your teeth will whiten gradually, becoming up to 8 shades whiter at the end of your treatment.
OTC whitening products don’t provide noticeable or lasting results because they don’t contain a high concentration of whitening agents. Not to mention, not all stains respond to whitening treatments, and not everyone can use them safely. Visiting a dentist for teeth whitening ensures you’ll reach the results you want without damaging your smile. Your results can last for many months or years, depending on your aftercare routine, like brushing and flossing.
We offer many solutions to keep a stunning smile within everyone’s budget. We will review all your payment options during your consultation, including:
