A white, radiant smile can leave a lasting impression and boost your self-confidence. If your teeth have become stained or discolored over time, professional teeth whitening offers a safe and effective way to refresh your appearance. At Pacific Dental Group, we provide customized whitening treatments in Fresno, California, designed to dramatically enhance your smile without damaging your enamel. Whether you are preparing for a special occasion or simply want to improve your everyday appearance, we can help you achieve noticeable results.
Why Choose Professional Teeth Whitening
While over-the-counter whitening products may promise convenience, they often fail to deliver the same level of effectiveness and safety as professional treatments. Our in-office whitening procedures use high-grade bleaching agents that are applied under the supervision of experienced dental professionals. These agents can penetrate the enamel to break up stains caused by food, drinks, tobacco use and the natural aging process. The result is a visibly whiter and brighter smile, often after just one visit.
We also offer professional take-home whitening kits, which include custom-fitted trays and clinical-strength whitening gel. These kits allow you to achieve gradual, even whitening from the comfort of your home while minimizing the risk of gum irritation or uneven results. Both treatment options are tailored to meet your specific needs and ensure long-lasting outcomes.
Common Causes of Tooth Discoloration
Your teeth can become discolored for several reasons. Some of the most common causes include:
- Drinking dark-colored beverages such as coffee, tea, red wine and soda
- Smoking or using other tobacco products
- Poor oral hygiene and plaque buildup
- The natural aging process, which causes the enamel to thin and reveal yellow dentin beneath
- Certain medications, including some antibiotics and chemotherapy drugs
- Excessive fluoride exposure during early childhood (fluorosis)
Regardless of the cause, our dentist and team will evaluate your oral health and recommend the most suitable whitening method for your situation.
What to Expect During Treatment
In-office whitening typically takes about one hour. Your lips and gums will be protected, and the whitening gel will be applied directly to your teeth. A special light may be used to accelerate the whitening process. Take-home kits require daily use over a period of one to two weeks, depending on your goals and the degree of staining.
