When to Whiten?
As our dentists will advise, teeth whitening will not affect the appearance of crowns, bridges, veneers, or fillings. Therefore, we recommend whitening first if you anticipate needing crowns, fillings, or veneers in the near future. This way, our dentists can match the color of your future dental work to your newly whitened teeth.
Professional teeth whitening can remove stains and discoloration from the tooth surface and the area deep within. Experience the benefits of Teeth Whitening in Boise, Idaho for a brighter, more confident smile.

Why Teeth Become Stained or Discolored
Surface Stains:
Tooth enamel is the strongest substance in your body, but it’s also porous.
This means it can absorb substances that stain your teeth, including:
- Dark-colored beverages like tea, coffee, wine, colas, and fruit juices
- Dark sauces like tomato and soy sauce
- Sugary foods and drinks
- Brightly colored fruits such as berries, cherries, and pomegranates
- Tobacco products
Poor nutrition and oral hygiene can also contribute to discoloration.
Deep Stains:
Discoloration can also occur in the inner layer of the tooth, just below the enamel. This layer is naturally yellow or gray, and as enamel wears away with age, the underlying color begins to show, causing teeth to appear dull or dingy. Medications, illness, and injury can also affect the inner portion of your teeth, leading to further discoloration.
Top Teeth Whitening Options
Teeth whitening is a highly effective way to brighten your smile without needing more invasive treatments like veneers. Whether you choose to have your teeth whitened at our office or use a carefully crafted take-home kit, you’ll achieve great results without lasting sensitivity.
Professional Whitening Treatment
For most patients, the most effective and fastest way to whiten teeth is through a professional in-office treatment. During this process, a bleaching solution is applied to your teeth using specially designed trays. A laser then gently heats the solution, activating oxygen molecules that penetrate the enamel to lift stains. Laser teeth whitening offers immediate results and helps reduce the risk of sensitivity and gum irritation.
Take-home Teeth Whitening Kit
For those who prefer to whiten their teeth at home, we offer customized take-home whitening kits. These kits include custom-molded application trays that fit the natural contours of your teeth, ensuring even and thorough whitening. Unlike store-bought kits, our trays are specifically designed from impressions of your teeth, which minimizes risks of sensitivity and gum irritation. The treatment gradually lightens enamel over three to four weeks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Plaque forms when bacteria from food and drink particles aren’t properly cleaned from your teeth. Over time, plaque hardens into tartar, which can only be removed by a dentist or hygienist. This yellow buildup can occur if you don’t brush often enough or thoroughly enough.
Teeth whitening is generally safe, but you may experience some sensitivity, especially after your first or second treatment. This discomfort typically fades over time. Always follow the instructions provided with your take-home kit or over-the-counter products to ensure safety.
Whitening will not change the color of crowns, veneers, or fillings on your front teeth. However, whitening the surrounding natural teeth may make these dental restorations stand out more.
Teeth whitening is rarely covered by insurance. Contact your insurance provider to check if they offer coverage. We can provide an estimate for you to submit to your provider.
To maintain your bright smile, avoid foods and drinks that can stain teeth, such as tea, coffee, red wine, colored soft drinks, fruit juices, tomato sauce, curry, soy sauce, red meat, chocolate, and most fruits (except bananas).
The duration of teeth whitening results depends on the method used and how well you care for your teeth. Whitening can last anywhere from 6 months to up to 3 years.
