About In-Office Teeth Whitening in Indianapolis, IN

Would you believe that you can enhance your smile in less than an hour? While it may seem too good to be true, MINT dentistry in Indianapolis, IN can make it happen using professional teeth whitening. Several things can lead to a smile that looks yellow or dull, like staining food, drinks, and tobacco products. To eliminate years of stains, MINT dentistry offers professional in-office teeth whitening to make your smile brighter and more confident. In-office teeth whitening is a quick cosmetic procedure that can effectively brighten your teeth by several shades in a single treatment. Using state-of-the-art dental technology, our board-certified dentists can give you sexy teeth. To learn more, contact MINT dentistry in Indianapolis, IN.

Is Teeth Whitening Right for Me?

If you are looking to brighten your smile in one appointment, in-office teeth whitening is a wonderful option. Before getting teeth whitening, an experienced team member will ensure your teeth are healthy enough for a cosmetic procedure. Then, your dentist will listen to your concerns and goals before discussing your treatment options. In-office teeth whitening can give you quick, dramatic results by lightening discoloration embedded deep within your natural tooth enamel. Unlike store-bought whitening products, your teeth whitening treatment will be customized to fit your needs and goals.

How Does In-Office Whitening Work?

Though in-office teeth whitening performed at MINT dentistry does not require anesthesia, sedation options are available for patients with dental anxieties or a powerful gag reflex. Your teeth need to be cleaned and dried prior to the treatment so that the whitening gel can be applied evenly. Afterward, a protective covering will be placed over your soft tissues while your eyes are shielded with special glasses. A member of our Indianapolis, IN team will paint a professional-grade whitening gel onto your enamel and expose your mouth to our advanced teeth light. The mix of this light and gel works to break down the stains in the enamel. Depending on your current enamel color and desired result, this process could be done 2 – 3 times. Once your procedure is done, the remaining gel and protective gum barrier will be cleaned before your teeth are rinsed.

Maintain Your Teeth Whitening Results

Once your appointment is over, patients will be allowed to leave our office unless sedation is used. However, you should stay away from anything that will stain your teeth (lipstick, coffee, tobacco products) for at least two days after your treatment. You may encounter sensitivity to cold and hot — this should only last for 3 – 5 days. To keep your results, you must brush your teeth whenever possible after having staining food and drinks in addition to tobacco products. At home, you need to follow a daily oral hygiene routine, including cleaning and flossing to avoid stains. Professional cleanings twice a year at our Indianapolis, IN dental facility will also help reduce new stains to help keep your smile looking brilliant. If you need to refresh your results in a few years, you can schedule another laser whitening treatment or ask a MINT dentistry staff member about other whitening options.

The MINT Commitment

Many dental insurance policies do not cover professional teeth whitening because it is considered to be an elective procedure. During your initial consultation at our Indianapolis, IN office, our financial coordinator will go over cost estimates and payment options. Our entire MINT dentistry team is committed to making sure you have the brilliant smile you have always wanted. Ask a staff member about our cosmetic dentistry specials, medical financing, or our MINT Discount Plan, which can make treatments for brightening your smile even more budget-friendly.
