    Our Teeth Whitening Treatment

    At our practice, we stand by the gold standard of custom made teeth whitening trays, as opposed to the frequently used whitestrips, loaded with either hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide. Prior to treatment, we will take high quality photos of your teeth and we will make custom upper and lower trays. Your dentist will select a solution, concentration, and regimen that is appropriate for you and your teeth. You will be given all that you need to do at-home professional-grade tooth whitening. After 1 to 2 weeks, we will evaluate progress. Depending on results, we will decide whether to complete the treatment or select a different whitening agent.

    There are several benefits of the at-home whitening approach. 1) you are in control of how much lighter your teeth become 2) If your teeth are prone to sensitivity, you can choose to wear the trays for shorter periods of time 3) you can easily and cheaply re-whiten your teeth with a “maintenance kit” if the whitening effects fade over time.

    Finding the Treatment that Fits Your Needs

    Almost all teeth can be whitened to a certain extent. We will evaluate your condition and advise you. If you have always wanted brighter teeth and a more confident smile, whitening may be for you. Ask us today and you can have your custom bleaching trays in one to two days.

    Some patients have deeply stained teeth related to medications taken as a child (such as tetracycline). Even custom whitening trays may not be enough to whiten the teeth. For these severe cases, we offer KOR Whitening systems Ultra-T whitening treatment. This specific regimen includes in office conditioning, at home overnight whitening, and in office whitening components. The regimen was designed to achieve whitening even for deeply stained teeth.  If you’re asking the question: is there teeth whitening near me? You’ve come to the right place.

    Cost of Teeth Whitening

    Numerous things can influence the price of dental whitening, such as the selected technique, the current state of the patient’s teeth, and the intensity of whitening needed. Our at-home whitening solutions primarily involve the creation of personalized trays tailored for our clients. The price range for our complete whitening packages spans between $90 and $1200 depending on the services needed. It is important to note that teeth whitening is generally deemed a cosmetic treatment, and as a result, it is typically not covered by the majority of dental insurance policies.

    Benefits, Side Effects and Health Risks of Teeth Whitening

    One of the greatest benefits of teeth whitening is that it improves the overall look of your teeth.  The process removes stains and discoloration from the tooth surface, resulting in a bright smile. Side effects of teeth whitening procedures, especially when overused or improperly applied, can include tooth sensitivity and gum irritation, with some individuals experiencing temporary discomfort or pain following treatment.  Thankfully, most of these issues arise from over-the-counter products. The teeth whitening products that we offer have enamel safe chemicals and we give you clear and concise directions for home treatments that will reduce any sort of side effect.

    Long-Lasting Results with Irby Dentistry

    The duration of your teeth’s whiteness after a whitening treatment can vary widely depending on several factors. In general, the whiteness you get from professional teeth whitening  treatments, such as the Kor Treatment Protocol, can last anywhere from six months to two years with usage of the trays 1 to 2 times a month. Some people may require touch-up treatments to maintain their desired shade of whiteness and whiteness can be reduced based on the usage of products like cigarettes, coffee or tea. To ensure the best outcome, it’s important to follow our post-whitening care instructions and have regular dental check-ups and cleanings.

    Irby dentistry was awesome! They were really quick with getting back to me about an emergency extraction and it didn't hurt that dr Irby was real easy on the eyes lol! Great place! My kids had to come with me and they let them dig in the toy box for a distraction so that was cool too!
