The process

How professional whitening works

Unlike drugstore strips, professional whitening uses a clinical-strength gel applied by your dentist — with results you can see immediately.

Consultation

Dr. Kim assesses your teeth, checks for sensitivity, and recommends the best whitening approach for your smile.

Treatment

Professional-strength whitening gel is applied and activated — typically in 60–90 minutes right here in Monroe.

Results

Most patients see multiple shades of improvement in a single session. Custom trays available for ongoing maintenance.

Enjoy your smile

Walk out the same day with a noticeably brighter smile. No downtime, no waiting weeks for results.

Common questions

Teeth whitening FAQ

How long do results last?

With good oral hygiene and periodic touch-ups, professional whitening typically lasts 1–3 years. Coffee, tea, and wine consumption can affect longevity.

Is it safe for sensitive teeth?

Yes — because treatment is supervised by Dr. Kim, we adjust concentration and application to minimize sensitivity based on your history.

How many shades whiter can I expect?

Most patients achieve 4–8 shades of improvement, though results vary based on your teeth's natural color and porosity.

Do you offer take-home whitening trays?

Yes — custom-fitted take-home trays are available as an alternative or for maintenance after in-office treatment.

Is whitening covered by insurance?

Cosmetic whitening is typically not covered. We're happy to discuss pricing and payment options at your consultation.
