Get a Gorgeous Grin With Several Whitening Options

If you’ve tried whitening your smile with a kit you purchased at a drugstore, you were probably less than impressed with your results. Whether you choose laser whitening or one of our two Zoom options, the bleaching agent we use contains a far higher concentration of whitening ingredients than over-the-counter products. Our at-home whitening is also easier to use than the messy strips or flimsy trays that come from the drugstore.

We’re excited to offer three different options for you to brighten your smile:

  • Zoom In-Office Whitening – This in-office treatment will give you a dramatically whiter smile in a single visit – up to eight shades whiter for many of our patients. Our team will do all the whitening work for you while you sit back and unwind with a neck pillow and warm blanket.
  • Zoom At-Home Whitening – This treatment is just as effective, and it enables you to whiten when it is most convenient for you. Whiten first thing in the morning, while doing household chores, before you head off to bed, or while you sleep. Dr. Victoria Shook can provide specifics for the most effective home whitening regimen.
  • Biolase Laser Whitening – This procedure is our fastest teeth whitening treatment. In as little as 20 minutes, you can have a smile that is four to six shades whiter.

Confused by all the options for teeth whitening in San Pedro? We’ll help you pick the one that is just right for your smile. Call 310-982-6333 to schedule an appointment. Don’t forget to schedule your regular cleaning and exam first to ensure your teeth are primed for treatment.

Common Questions About Teeth Whitening
Is teeth whitening painful?

If you leave store-bought whitening strips on too long, your gums can become irritated. That’s one reason we recommend professional whitening over store-bought whitening kits. In addition, with all types of whitening, some patients experience tooth sensitivity to hot and cold after their treatment. This usually goes away in a few days and doesn’t cause any other problems.

Can I eat after my teeth whitening treatment?

You should avoid eating or drinking for at least four hours after your office whitening treatment. Just sip water during that time. In fact, during the first 48 hours, we recommend you have a diet of “white” foods, like bread, pasta, yogurt, rice, milk, turkey, chicken, etc. Your teeth are porous after whitening, which means they are more susceptible to staining. To achieve the best results and experience less sensitivity, adjust your diet those first couple of days.

How does teeth whitening work?

The whitening agent in our teeth whitening systems contains oxygen molecules that interact with the discolored molecules in your teeth enamel. The discolored molecules are broken up, and your teeth are left a sparkling white. Depending on your wants and needs, we can alter the level of whitening by changing the strength of the whitening agent and how long it’s applied.
