Teeth Whitening in Owings Mills MD

Tooth whitening is a dental service where we improve the appearance of stained or discolored teeth. Cleaning your teeth every day will help remove stains, but your toothpaste can only do so much. 

You may have already tried home whitening solutions like adhesive strips, but the do-it-yourself products are much less powerful than what you can get at the dentist. You also run the risk of bleaching or hurting your gums if you misapply the product. 

We use a professional grade whitening gel that removes stains and brightens your teeth in about one hour. This treatment is safe and effective because it is applied by a trained dentist. And since we apply it for you, that means you don't have to worry about hurting your gums! 

You'll notice results right away, which is why professional tooth whitening is the best option if you have an important event coming up! 

Benefits of Teeth Whitening

Our in-office teeth whitening treatment provides rapid and dramatic results. This procedure involves applying a powerful whitening gel to your teeth, which is then activated by a special light. The entire process takes about an hour, and you will leave our office with a noticeably whiter smile.

Take-Home Whitening Kits

For those who prefer to whiten their teeth in the comfort of their own homes, we offer professional-grade take-home whitening kits. These kits include custom-fitted trays and a more potent whitening gel than over-the-counter options. Dr. Silverman will provide detailed instructions to ensure you achieve the best possible results

In some cases, your teeth may not respond to whitening treatment. If this is your situation, we have you covered! 

Some alternative whitening options may include:

• Porcelain veneers
• Dental crowns
• Tooth bonding

If you've tried teeth whitening before and haven't achieved the results you wanted, ask Dr. Silverman about these other methods to get the beautiful smile you deserve!

What to Expect After Teeth Whitening

Immediate Results
After your teeth whitening treatment, you will notice an immediate improvement in the brightness of your smile. The full effect will be visible within a few days as the whitening agent continues to work.

Temporary Sensitivity
Some patients may experience temporary tooth sensitivity following the procedure. This is normal and should subside within a few days. Using toothpaste designed for sensitive teeth can help alleviate any discomfort.

Post-Whitening Care
To maintain your new bright smile, follow these tips:



• Avoid foods and beverages that can stain your teeth, such as coffee, tea, red wine, and berries.
• Brush your teeth at least twice a day and floss daily to keep your teeth clean and free from stains.
• Use a whitening toothpaste once or twice a week to help maintain your results.
• Schedule regular dental check-ups and cleanings to ensure your teeth remain healthy and white.

Long-Term Maintenance
The longevity of your whitening results depends on your oral care routine and lifestyle choices. With proper care, your teeth can remain bright and beautiful for several months to a few years. If your teeth start to discolor again, touch-up treatments are available to refresh your smile.
