A white, bright smile can help create a youthful appearance. We offer a number of different whitening options, depending upon your needs. We invite you to consult with us to determine which option is best for you. Our dentist may need to perform an exam to determine if your teeth are healthy enough for whitening.
If you are a candidate for whitening, we may suggest a procedure called chair side or in-office whitening, and it may be completed in as little as one visit. During an in-office whitening procedure, we will apply either a protective gel to your gums or a rubber shield to protect your oral soft tissues. A whitening agent is then applied to your teeth, and a special light may be used to enhance the action of the agent.
Custom take-home whitening products typically come in a gel which is dispensed into a tray or mouth guard. These trays are made by your dentist to fit your teeth precisely. Usage may vary depending on the product. Some products are used twice a day for approximately 2 weeks, while others are intended for overnight use for 1-2 weeks.
We offer a professional alternative to common over-the-counter whitening options. It’s a simple and fast whitening treatment that can also be used for whitening touch-ups. It uses prefilled, disposable trays that don’t require impressions or custom trays.
I very much appreciated the front desk team's patience and flexibility in working with me for my initial consultation. They were completely understanding about how I did not desire X-rays or a prophylactic cleaning for my initial consultation because I'd already had those procedures done recently. I also appreciated being made aware of the parking options in the nearby neighborhood. As for the services provided by the healthcare team, I was more than satisfied: the dynamic duo of clinician and dental assistant was wondrous, and I was put at ease very quickly. They were more than respectful of the fact that I was there primarily to obtain cost estimates for certain services that I was considering such as Reveal® clear aligners (one of only three providers of this brand in the city, as of the time of writing) and teeth whitening, and they abstained from the kind of upselling you see at a number of dental practices. These were some of the most affordable costs I've seen in my experience shopping around practices and comparing services - I'm inclined to make Gateway Dental my primary care dentist!
Highly Recommended Dental Office. Great Professional staffing. Good Location. Dental treatment was performed same-day as cleaning. Very pleased with experience. Thank you Gateway Dental !!!
