Teeth Whitening
in Woodway, TX

Teeth whitening is an extremely popular cosmetic dentistry procedure that helps our Waco patients look younger, healthier, and happier in just a few hours. Waco cosmetic dentist Dr. Locke offers three ways to whiten your smile: Zoom! in-office whitening, Sinsational Smile in-office whitening, and take-home whitening trays. Zoom! has long been considered the leading brand for teeth whitening. Results vary, but most patients’ teeth lighten 8 to 10 shades in just one office visit. Sinsational Smile is a less intensive in-office whitening that can be done at your hygiene appointment and will brighten up your smile 2-3 shades. If you’d prefer to whiten your teeth more gradually, we can create custom take-home kits for you to wear in the privacy of your own home. Zoom!, Sinsational Smile, and take-home teeth whitening methods deliver sensational results.

A few facts about teeth whitening:

•  Teeth whitening toothpastes can remove surface stains, but they can’t actually bleach the teeth.
•  Not all types of stains respond the same way to teeth whitening. Yellow and orange tinges typically lighten more drastically than gray tones.
•  Cavities should be filled prior to teeth whitening.
•  Professional whitening kits contain a higher concentration of peroxide (bleaching agent), and therefore provide much more effective results.
• Periodic touchups will keep your teeth bright long term.
•  A dental cleaning prior to teeth whitening will help remove surface stains and yield greater results.
•  Professional teeth whitening systems, such as Zoom!, provides fluoride to curb tooth sensitivity.

Waco cosmetic dentist Dr. Corbet Locke can give you a beautiful white smile in just one simple appointment at his dental practice. We are conveniently located in Central Texas, near Hewitt and Woodway.
