Erase Bothersome Tooth Stains for a White, Bright Smile

Are you disappointed to notice your once-white teeth are losing their glow? You may have tried over-the-counter whitening without any tangible results. Don’t be dismayed. Professional teeth whitening in Rohnert Park, California, can restore your smile’s shine. Sonoma Smiles uses in-office and take-home teeth whitening trays to eliminate bothersome tooth stains. If your smile is stained from coffee, red wine, or tobacco use, Dr. Wayne Sutton and his team can help restore its brightness.

What are the differences between professional teeth whitening and store-bought products?

Teeth whitening is one of the most sought-after treatments due to its affordability and simplicity. However, with so many options available, choosing the best method for your smile can be overwhelming. While over-the-counter products may seem appealing because of their low cost and convenience, they often deliver mediocre results. Even worse, these store-bought options can lead to tooth sensitivity, mainly if not used correctly.

Home remedies like baking soda, whitening toothpaste, and activated charcoal might produce minimal changes in enamel color, but they also come with risks. Leaving these substances on your teeth for too long can damage your teeth and gums, causing more harm than good.

No teeth whitening achieves dramatic yet safe transformations like professional teeth whitening. Dentists use medical-grade products and supervise your treatment from start to finish for superior outcomes. Our strong whitening gels penetrate the deeper layers of the enamel to remove surface and deep-set stains. Furthermore, many patients don’t experience tooth damage or sensitivity because of the precise application and use of desensitizers.

How do we make teeth whiter?

Teeth whitening before and after

Dr. Sutton uses the best methods to brighten your smile. Here are the options you can consider in our office. 

  • KoR in-office teeth whitening: Achieve a bright, white smile in just an hour with KoR teeth whitening. KoR uses chemically activated gels that don’t need activation with sensitive-inducing lasers. KoR whitening gels are kept cold until they are used on your teeth. This preserves their freshness and potency to remove the toughest stains, including tetracycline, previously deemed impossible to bleach. 
  • At-home teeth whitening: Some patients like taking matters into their own hands. Our teeth whitening trays allow you to whiten your teeth gradually at home conveniently and comfortably. Whitening trays in our office are custom-fitted after taking digital impressions of your dentition. This customization ensures your restoration fits snugly for consistent gel application. You only need to wear our trays for about 60-90 minutes daily, and your teeth will be noticeably whiter after two weeks.

Once you achieve your white smile, we’ll give you post-op instructions to maintain the results. Remember, the things that stained your smile in the first place can cause discoloration again. So, limit your intake of coffee, soda, wine, and other enamel-staining foods. Furthermore, quit smoking and ensure you observe optimal oral hygiene. Lastly, visit your dentist twice annually for professional teeth cleaning.
