Our professional teeth whitening services are designed to safely and effectively remove years of stains, giving you a brilliantly white smile you’ll be proud to show off.
Is your smile not as bright as you’d like it to be? Are you tired of hiding your teeth in photos or during conversations? At Futch Dental, our Reno cosmetic dentists understand how a dull or stained smile can affect your confidence and self-image. Our professional teeth whitening services are designed to safely and effectively remove years of stains, giving you a brilliantly white smile you’ll be proud to show off.
While store shelves are filled with various whitening products promising dramatic results, professional teeth whitening performed by our experienced dental team offers significant advantages:
Professional treatments use higher-concentration whitening agents that penetrate deep into tooth enamel to remove both surface stains and internal discoloration. The result is a smile that’s dramatically whiter—typically 6-8 shades lighter—than what’s possible with over-the-counter products.
Why wait weeks or months for minimal improvements when you can achieve dramatic results in just one visit? Our in-office whitening treatments deliver immediate, stunning results in about an hour, making them perfect for special events or when you want a confidence boost right away.
Our professional-grade whitening systems are designed to minimize sensitivity while maximizing results. Before any whitening procedure, Dr. Futch will examine your teeth and gums to ensure the treatment is appropriate for you. During treatment, we take special precautions to protect your gums and soft tissues from irritation.
Unlike one-size-fits-all commercial products, our professional whitening treatments are tailored to your specific needs, taking into account the current shade of your teeth, your desired outcome, and any sensitivity concerns you may have.
With proper maintenance and good oral hygiene habits, professional whitening results can last for years rather than the weeks typical of over-the-counter options.
At Futch Dental, we offer multiple whitening solutions to fit your lifestyle, preferences, and budget:
Our powerful in-office whitening treatment delivers dramatic results in just one appointment. This option is perfect for those who want immediate results or are preparing for a special event.
What to expect:
Our custom take-home whitening kits offer professional-grade results with the convenience of whitening on your own schedule. These kits are far superior to store-bought options because they feature:
Many patients achieve their desired results in just 1-2 weeks of daily use, and the custom trays can be kept for touch-ups whenever needed.
For the ultimate whitening experience, many patients choose to begin with an in-office treatment for immediate transformation, followed by take-home trays for maintenance and periodic touch-ups. This approach provides both instant gratification and long-term value.
Understanding what causes tooth discoloration can help you maintain your new white smile longer. Common causes include:
While teeth whitening is safe and effective for most patients, it’s not appropriate for everyone. During your consultation, we’ll determine if you’re a good candidate by considering:
If teeth whitening isn’t the best option for you, we’ll discuss alternative cosmetic treatments that can achieve the results you desire.
After investing in a professional whitening treatment, you’ll want to maintain those beautiful results as long as possible. Here are some tips for extending the life of your whitening:
Yes. When performed under the supervision of a qualified dental professional, teeth whitening is extremely safe. Our dental team will ensure that your gums are protected and that the whitening agent is appropriate for your specific situation.
Most patients experience little to no discomfort during whitening treatments. Some may notice temporary sensitivity afterward, but this typically subsides within 24-48 hours. We take special precautions to minimize sensitivity and can recommend desensitizing products if needed.
Results vary depending on your habits and lifestyle. With good oral hygiene and minimizing staining substances, professional whitening results can last 1-3 years. Touch-ups with your take-home trays can extend these results indefinitely.
Professional whitening works best on yellow or brown stains caused by age, food, drink, and tobacco. Gray discoloration from tetracycline antibiotics or fluorosis may be more resistant but can often show improvement. Some stains may require alternative cosmetic treatments like veneers or bonding.
No, whitening only works on natural tooth enamel. Existing dental restorations will not change color with whitening treatments. If you have visible restorations, we may recommend whitening first, then replacing those restorations to match your new tooth shade.
The cost of teeth whitening varies depending on the method chosen and your specific needs. We’ll provide a detailed estimate during your consultation and discuss payment and financing options. Remember that professional whitening, while initially more expensive than over-the-counter products, often provides better value in the long run due to superior, longer-lasting results.
For in-office treatments, most patients achieve their desired results with just one session, with touch-ups recommended every 1-2 years. Take-home whitening can be used for 1-2 weeks initially, with occasional touch-ups as needed. Overuse of whitening products can lead to sensitivity and enamel damage, so we’ll provide personalized recommendations for your situation.
