Professional Teeth Whitening for a Brighter, Natural Smile — Phone Support Available 24/7

Professional teeth whitening safely lifts deep stains from enamel while protecting the natural tooth structure. Our dentists provide in-office treatments for fast, visible results, along with custom take-home trays for gradual brightening with minimal sensitivity.
This service is available across our California and Texas locations. To find the closest office, visit our Gold Coast Dental locations page.
  • Timeline: In‑office whitening takes about 60–90 minutes per session.
  • Cost Range: Professional whitening typically costs $300–$1,000 per treatment.
  • Candidacy: Best for adults with healthy teeth and gums; not recommended during pregnancy or for children under 16.
  • Pain & Anesthesia: Minimal discomfort; mild sensitivity possible but fades quickly.
How Whitening Treatments Lift Tooth Stains

What Is Professional Teeth Whitening?

Professional teeth whitening uses peroxide-based gels to break down stain molecules inside enamel. Think of enamel as a protective shield—whitening works within that shield without removing it.

After a dental exam, your gums are isolated and the whitening gel is applied. In-office treatments deliver faster results in about an hour, while custom take-home trays brighten teeth gradually over one to two weeks under professional supervision.

Not every stain responds the same way. Yellow or brown stains from coffee, tea, wine, tobacco, or age typically lighten well. Greyish tones from tetracycline or fluorosis may need alternatives such as porcelain or composite veneers. Our team will guide you toward the option that fits your goals.

Controlled Whitening with Shade Monitoring

Why Teeth Whitening at Gold Coast Dental

Whitening here isn’t a one-size-fits-all process. We monitor shade changes, adjust gel strength, and manage sensitivity in real time so results look natural—not overdone.

Custom Shade Matching

We evaluate your natural tooth color and whitening goals, then adjust treatment strength and timing to brighten your smile without over-whitening or artificial tones.

Comfort

Safe & Effective Methods

Enhanced Smile Aesthetics with Natural Whitening

Caring for Your Teeth Whitening

  • Brush twice daily with a non-abrasive toothpaste and floss regularly to reduce plaque buildup.
  • Limit coffee, tea, red wine, and tobacco; rinse with water after consuming stain-causing foods or drinks.
  • Use recommended at-home whitening or in-office touch-ups to maintain brightness.
  • Attend routine dental exams and professional cleanings to prevent new stains.

 

How Long Do Whitening Results Last?

  • Results typically last from four months to two years, depending on lifestyle and oral care habits.
  • Avoiding tobacco and stain-causing foods helps extend whitening longevity.
  • Periodic touch-up treatments, as recommended, help preserve brightness over time.

 

Who Is Teeth Whitening Not Recommended For?

Professional teeth whitening is safe for many patients, but it may not be the right option for everyone.

  • Patients with untreated cavities or active gum disease
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding patients
  • Children under the age of 16
  • Patients with crowns, veneers, or large fillings in visible areas (these do not change color)
  • Individuals with severe tooth sensitivity or enamel damage

 

A dental exam is required to determine whether whitening is appropriate and to avoid uneven or unexpected results.
