Teeth Whitening

Are yellowed or stained teeth making you self-conscious about your smile?

Teeth whitening treatment can brighten your teeth and remove stains in just one appointment.

Learn how Dr. Tyler L. Pendergrass and Dr. Eric S. Wilkie in Amarillo, TX, can help you achieve a dazzling smile.


Why Is Teeth Whitening Treatment 
More Effective than Store-Bought Products?

Our dentists use a powerful hydrogen peroxide solution to whiten your smile. Store-bought whitening strips and whitening toothpastes often have a weak whitening solution that is not as effective as professional treatment.
 

Benefits of Teeth Whitening

There are numerous benefits to teeth whitening treatment from our skilled dental team, like:

Boosted Self-Confidence

Patients with stained or discolored teeth often report feeling self-conscious about their smile. Teeth whitening treatment can give you a dazzling smile you can't help but share. 

Healthier Appearance

Stained or discolored teeth can make your smile look unhealthy, even if you follow an oral care routine. By whitening your teeth, your dentist can give you a healthier-looking smile.

Safe Treatment

Over-the-counter whitening toothpastes and strips can be used incorrectly, resulting in damaged enamel. Teeth whitening treatments with our dentists are supervised and safe. Your dentist can customize the hydrogen peroxide whitening solution to fit your needs and minimize sensitivity.

Want to Whiten Your Teeth at Home? We Offer At-Home Kits

We understand that some patients would prefer to undergo treatment at home on their own schedule. Our dentists offer customized take-home whitening kits that can whiten your smile in a few treatments.

Our at-home kits are simple. Apply the hydrogen peroxide gel to your custom whitening trays, place them in your mouth, and keep them in place for a specified time. While at-home treatment is not as fast as in-office treatment, it is still far superior to store-bought whitening products and will yield results in a few weeks with consistent application.

Am I a Candidate for Teeth Whitening?

During your consultation at our Amarillo dental practice, your dentist will examine your teeth to determine if teeth whitening is the best treatment for you. You may be a candidate for teeth whitening if you:

Have Surface Stains

Deep dental stains do not respond to teeth whitening. However, we have other treatment options if your dentist determines your discoloration won't be lifted with teeth whitening treatment.

Are in Good Oral Health

If you suffer from gum disease, tooth decay, or other oral health issues, they must be addressed before you can undergo teeth whitening treatment.

Have Sufficient Enamel

If you have thin enamel, teeth whitening treatment may cause sensitivity. In this case, your dentist may suggest other treatments to help you achieve your cosmetic goals.

Whitening Gel

Your dentist will carefully apply a powerful bleaching solution made of hydrogen peroxide to each tooth.

UV Light 

A UV light will be used to boost the bleaching power of the hydrogen peroxide. This helps break down the stains more effectively.

Removal

Your dentist will remove the whitening solution to check your progress.

Repeat

Your dentist will apply the whitening solution, use the UV light, and remove the gel until you achieve your desired results.

Smile

Once you and your dentist are satisfied with the results, your treatment is complete. You can now enjoy your brilliantly whitened smile.

Alternatives to Teeth Whitening

If you are not a candidate for teeth whitening treatment, our Amarillo dentists can still help you achieve your cosmetic goals. Some alternatives to teeth whitening include:

Porcelain Veneers

Veneer application

Porcelain veneers are thin porcelain shells that fit over the front surfaces of teeth to conceal cosmetic imperfections like stains, cracks, chips, and minor misalignment.

Dental Bonding

Dental bonding

Like dental veneers, dental bonding conceals cosmetic imperfections to enhance your smile. Your dentist can use a resin material and mold it to each affected tooth to achieve your cosmetic goals.

Will Insurance Cover Teeth Whitening?

Dental insurance does not cover teeth whitening as it is considered cosmetic. However, we accept CareCredit® to help split the cost of your treatment into affordable monthly payments, if necessary.
