Opalescence™ Boost™ teeth whitening
Professional teeth whitening in Chesterfield
Whether you just had your braces taken off, finished clear aligner treatment, or never needed orthodontics, if you want a brighter smile, teeth whitening treatment is perfect for you! Alizadeh & Schreiner Orthodontics proudly offers Opalescence Boost professional teeth whitening near you in the Greater St. Louis area.
What is professional teeth whitening?
Staining and discoloration naturally occur on your teeth over time, even if your dental hygiene practices are near perfect. So, if you’re ready to get your smile back, our St. Louis area orthodontics team can help with Opalescence Boost teeth whitening gel. This professional-grade gel quickly, safely, and effectively provides a brighter smile! Expertly applied in our office, the gel is chemically activated, meaning no hot or uncomfortable LED teeth-whitening lights are necessary.
Opalescence Boost gel begins to work as soon as it is on your teeth, providing noticeable whitening results in about an hour.
How to whiten teeth
There are many common methods people choose to go about whitening teeth. These options are not the most effective or safe teeth whitening methods, but may include:
- DIY teeth whitening
- Natural teeth whitening methods
- Teeth whitening kits
- Teeth whitening strips
The best teeth whitening method is to visit a dental office with an experienced staff, like Alizadeh & Schreiner Orthodontics, for professional treatment. The professional-grade Opalescence whitening gel, combined with our highly-trained professionals, guarantees a better, more effective teeth whitening experience.
What to expect from Opalescence teeth whitening
We recommend visiting your primary dentist for a checkup before visiting our office for a whitening treatment. During this routine checkup, your dentist will determine whether a whitening treatment is best after reviewing your teeth and gum health with you. This checkup will also make your whitening treatment more effective, as it will eliminate surface stains and plaque from your teeth.
You will visit our Chesterfield orthodontist office for your appointment once you’ve visited your dentist. During your visit to our office, you will share some medical history, like existing health conditions or tooth implants. Then, we can begin your Opalescence Boost whitening treatment.
Treatment step-by-step
1.
We will determine the beginning shade of your teeth and then place a lip and cheek retractor to keep your tongue and lips clear of the whitening gel and a protective barrier around your gumline to prevent the gel from irritating your gums.
2.
We will gently apply the gel to your teeth using a brushed tip. The gel will remain on your teeth for 20 minutes before being suctioned off to evaluate the shade change of your teeth and determine if you need another application based on your goals.
3.
Following the final gel application and removal, we can easily remove the protective barrier and retractor, and you will notice a brighter smile!
How much does teeth whitening cost?
The average cost of professional teeth whitening is around $600 on average. At Alizadeh & Schreiner Orthodontics, we proudly offer this treatment for $500. This cost reflects the treatment process and aftercare supplies provided for you. Typically, insurance doesn’t cover this procedure. Our office doesn’t want finances to stand in the way of a great smile, so we offer flexible payment arrangements to ensure treatment is accessible to all patients.
