Teeth Whitening Aurora, CO

Implant, Cosmetic & Family Dentist Serving Aurora, Centennial, Parker, Green Valley Ranch & Nearby Areas of Colorado

Brighten Your Smile With One Simple Appointment

Tooth stains develop for many reasons and are a natural part of the aging process. Your genetics, what medications you take, and lifestyle habits play a large role in how quickly you develop discoloration.

At Highpoint Dental, Dr. Baltz in Aurora, CO provides two tooth whitening options to give you whiter teeth in a manner that fits your schedule and price range. The in-office teeth bleaching option we offer, results in several shades of improvement in approximately 60 minutes. Our customized at-home whitening trays can be used at your own convenience.

The best way to learn which one of these options, or a different cosmetic dentistry treatment, will be best for your specific discoloration and particular needs, is through a one-on-one consultation with our welcoming and thoughtful cosmetic dentist.

Highpoint Dental Care Staff

If you’re interested in teeth whitening, please contact Highpoint Dental Care in Aurora, Colorado today at 303-617-9100 to discuss your cosmetic dentistry options. Dr. Baltz provides general, cosmetic, and emergency dentistry to patients in the Aurora area including Parker, Centennial, and Green Valley Ranch, Colorado.


Your Teeth Whitening Options

In-Office Teeth bleaching is our preferred method for most patients looking for a brighter smile. It can be done in time for a special event such as a wedding or corporate gathering. It can also be done as much as you’d like. You may be tempted to try store bought whitening products, or perhaps you already have, but these gels, trays, and toothpastes have weaker solutions than professional whitening treatments. These products are less effective and may cause gum irritation, uneven results, and tooth sensitivity.

The at-home whitening option works well for patients who want a gradual whitening on their own time. Using an impression of your teeth created in a dental lab the whitening trays are formed to fit your teeth, giving you consistent results that don’t affect your tooth enamel or gums. The trays must be worn for a few hours each night for at least a week or longer. They are portable, making it easier for you to whiten your teeth while you travel.


How Teeth Whitening Works

The teeth whitening process is performed in a single visit by one of our talented staff after taking a reference shade. However, if you are nervous or anxious about your treatment, we can discuss options such as complimentary nitrous oxide or in-office entertainment that can help quell even the most severe dental phobias. Our in-office whitening treatments typically take 1 to 1.5 hours during a teeth cleaning or as a separate visit to our Aurora office. The staff will examine your teeth and gums to make sure your oral health is intact before we begin your teeth whitening.

Professional-grade whitening solutions contain hydrogen peroxide which breaches the outer layer of your teeth (enamel). That doesn’t mean you should start swishing hydrogen peroxide. The breakdown of the gel material instigates a free radical reaction, which alters the chemical makeup of your teeth by dissolving organic stains and cleaning the “pores” of your teeth so your they appear whiter. This whitening process is the most effective option for getting rid of tooth stains and can be repeated as often as necessary.

Some internal tooth stains may be resistant to the teeth bleaching procedure, but there are alternative options such as porcelain veneers. Veneers involve a thin, porcelain shell that is placed over one or more of your existing teeth. If you’re a smoker, this could be the best option for you as your teeth won’t yellow or stain with veneers.

Teeth whitening and porcelain veneers can be combined in a smile makeover to address all of your concerns at once.

Teeth whitening is our recommended first step for patients looking for cosmetic correction. That way your smile will be as white as you like before we begin the veneer, crown, or dental implant process. These cosmetic dentistry procedures all involve matching the shade of porcelain or ceramic to the color of your natural teeth.

If we don’t begin with the whitening treatments, then your dental restorations will be matched to your yellow teeth, making it difficult and expensive to brighten your smile in the future.


Common Teeth Whitening Concerns:

Patients often have questions and concerns regarding the efficacy and safety of teeth whitening, including:

  • Tooth Sensitivity: You may or may not experience temporary tooth sensitivity following your whitening treatments, but this typically goes away in one to two days. Sensitivity products, such as Sensodyne Rapid Relief and simply avoiding extreme temperatures temporarily will help with this.
  • Longevity of Results: How long your whitening results last will depend on your lifestyle habits. Drinking coffee, tea, and red wine can cause your teeth to stain again, as does smoking. Avoiding those behaviors can help your teeth whitening last anywhere from six months to two years. We provide “touch up kits” at your whitening appointment to provide extra longevity to the results.
  • Safety: Professional tooth whitening is proven to be safe and the most effective means to whiten teeth.
  • Cosmetic Dentistry Costs: Our dentist believes in transparency when it comes to the procedures we offer and their cost. The price for teeth whitening varies depending on several factors. Teeth whitening procedures in many offices will cost upwards of $500 or more. We look at whitening as a benefit of being our patient and charge a much lower fee for this service (approximately $250 as of this writing). We also provide a “whitening for life” program with take home trays to encourage kept hygiene appointments and longevity with patients. Highpoint Dental Care offers financing options for any and all procedures to help you achieve your desired smile.

We care about you and your happiness. We will listen to your concerns, provide you with honest and detailed information about your options and realistic outcomes, and work directly with you to find the best solution for your needs.

Our patients are family to us and we take every care to ensure continuous satisfaction during, after, and in between every visit. After all, we want to see you again - for both your cosmetic and preventive needs - allowing us to help you maintain the strongest and most attractive smile possible now and well into the future.
