Teeth Whitening in Scarborough, ON
Having a bright, white, healthy smile is one of the quickest ways to boost your self-confidence. And now, thanks to the many advancements made in cosmetic dentistry, including those used by our dentist at Scarborough dental office, you can enjoy the benefits of professional teeth whitening for yourself!
Trust Your Smile to the Professionals
You may be tempted to try over-the-counter (OTC) teeth whitening products in your pursuit of a more beautiful smile. Still, there is no substitute for the professional materials and care you’ll receive from our dentists at Finch East Dental Care.
We hear from patients every day who tell us that they’re tired of spending hard-earned money on OTC products that promise to whiten but fail to deliver results. Or worse, they’ve used OTC products improperly and now experience dental sensitivity or increased staining. Instead of taking risks like that with your smile’s health and beauty, we invite you to contact our teeth whitening dentists to learn about peace of mind and proven results that can be yours with professional teeth whitening.
When you visit us for your teeth whitening consultation, we’ll be able to detect any pre-existing conditions in the enamel of your teeth that could impact your results. That way, all guesswork about your whiter smile will be removed, and you can enjoy the rewards you deserve!
Already Experiencing Tooth Sensitivity?
If you’re experiencing tooth sensitivity from OTC whitening products that you’ve already used, our dentists and their teams at Scarborough dental office can help treat that condition as a precursor to teeth bleaching. If it’s determined that whitening should not be used on your sensitive teeth, our dentists will explain other treatments such as dental veneers and bonding as an alternative.

FAQs
Zoom teeth whitening is performed under dental supervision and uses a professional-strength whitening gel activated during an in-office procedure. Over-the-counter kits use lower-concentration products and are self-applied. Suitability depends on enamel condition, type of staining, and overall oral health.
Whitening may be appropriate for patients with sensitivity following a clinical assessment. The dentist evaluates enamel health and may adjust the treatment protocol or recommend desensitizing measures when necessary.
Results vary depending on dietary habits, oral hygiene, and lifestyle factors. Whitening effects may last several months to over a year, and periodic maintenance options may be discussed during follow-up visits.
Professional whitening may reduce many surface and age-related stains, including those associated with coffee or tobacco use. The degree of improvement depends on the depth and cause of discoloration.
An in-office whitening appointment typically lasts about 60 to 90 minutes. The exact duration may change depending on individual response and treatment planning.
Whitening may not be recommended for patients with untreated cavities, active gum disease, or certain restorations on visible teeth. A dental examination determines whether whitening or another cosmetic option is appropriate.
Whitening performed in a dental setting allows for assessment of oral health before treatment and monitoring during the procedure. This helps ensure that whitening is completed in a clinically appropriate manner.
