If you find you’re smiling less because you’re self-conscious about the color of your teeth then you may want to think about a tooth whitening system. Perhaps you recently quit smoking and you want to remove all remnants of that habit, a tooth whitening can help you move on. Overuse of teeth whiteners can cause sensitivity to the teeth and gums and even some damage if the whitener is used for too long. We’ll help you choose the treatment that’s best for you.
The bright white of your teeth can change due to several factors. Food, drink, tobacco use, age, and even some medications can cause your teeth to become yellowed over time and cause a loss of original whiteness to your teeth. Teeth whitening is a simple process whereby whiteners are used to break stains into smaller pieces so that they aren’t as noticeable. We use peroxide bleach gel which is refrigerated to prevent breakdown and give the best clean for the brightest smile possible.
Looking to put the stops on teeth discoloration? As your Idaho Falls Dentist, we offer a teeth whitening service that will reverse the discoloration that can take place over the years. This is perfect for those that are looking for a faster and more dramatic change than what a general teeth cleaning session offers.
We get rid of stains caused from consuming:
Soda
Coffee
Tea
Wine
Candy
And even fruits and berries
A dentist will also be able to assess whether or not you will need any other work done such as fillings, root canals, or identify any other concerns. Come and see us at our Idaho Falls office or give us a call and talk with a professional today!

We use a whitening gel that is refrigerated from creation to application. This advanced technology allows for optimum whitening because the whitening agent does not break down. We can work in-office or send you home with a whitening kit.
At-home Whitening
If you don’t have time to spend in our office we can send you home with a pre-packed whitening kit and instructions.
Stain Removal Toothpaste
Look for a toothpaste that has the ADA seal of approval. They will get rid of stains and give you a nice polish as well. They are also safe for extensive use.
Over-the-counter Bleaching
These products, such as pastes or strips, have a lower concentration of bleach than you’ll find in our offices. Again, look for the ADA seal of approval.
UV Whitening
This involves using a specific frequency of light to whiten teeth. It is not recommended as, like getting a sunburn, UV light can damage your teeth.

In-office bleaching provides the quickest way to whiten teeth. With in-office bleaching, the whitening product is applied directly to the teeth. These products can be used in combination with heat, a special light, or a laser. Results are seen in only one, 30 to 60-minute treatment.
If your goal is to get a bright white smile, teeth whitening can be a safe option. But it’s important to talk to a dentist first about your options and do your research. Research shows that hydrogen peroxide products might damage proteins in your teeth’s dentin layer.
Yellow teeth can be completely whitened with teeth whitening technologies at the dentist or at home.
Having your teeth whitened in-office will cost approximately Rs. 30,000, and while this is significantly more money than the cost of take-home kits or other teeth whitening products, such as gels, gums, or whitening toothpastes, which can range from Rs. 3,000 to Rs. 10,000
