Teeth Whitening in Mount Pleasant, WI

What’s the Difference Between In-Office Whitening and Take-Home Trays?

The key differences between our two teeth whitening treatments come down to speed, strength, cost, and convenience. In-office whitening offers immediate results with a stronger gel applied under close supervision. Take-home trays provide flexibility and are a great choice for touch-ups or gradual whitening over one to two weeks. Both are safe, effective, and customized to your needs.

What Should I Do Before and After Dental Whitening?

Before treatment:

• Schedule a professional cleaning to remove surface stains.
• Avoid dark foods or drinks 24 to 48 hours before your appointment.
• Let us know if you’ve experienced sensitivity in the past.

After treatment:

• Avoid coffee, tea, red wine, soda, and tobacco for at least 48 hours.
• Drink dark liquids with a straw whenever possible.
• Use sensitivity toothpaste to keep discomfort at bay.

Our team will provide full care instructions to help protect your results.

How Often Should I Get My Teeth Professionally Whitened?

We typically recommend professional teeth whitening every six to twelve months, depending on:

• Your diet and tobacco use
• How well you maintain oral hygiene
• The specific whitening treatment used

For patients using custom trays, more frequent touch-ups may be safe under our guidance. We’ll tailor a whitening schedule that keeps your smile glowing year-round.

Can I Get Teeth Whitening If I Have Sensitive Teeth?

Absolutely. At Oxford Dental, we take extra steps to protect patients with sensitive teeth. We offer low-sensitivity whitening gels and can adjust treatment time for added comfort. Using sensitivity toothpaste before and after your cosmetic treatment, along with fluoride rinses, can help reduce discomfort. We’ll help you select the safest, most effective option for your needs.

What Foods or Habits Should I Avoid After Whitening Treatment?

To protect your investment, avoid these foods and habits for 48 hours following treatment:

• Coffee, tea, red wine
• Soda, sports drinks
• Tomato sauce, soy sauce
• Smoking or using tobacco products

Continue brushing twice daily with a whitening-safe toothpaste and consider using a straw when drinking dark liquids. We’ll walk you through full post-care instructions to ensure long-lasting results.

Can I Get Dental Whitening If I Have Crowns or Fillings?

Teeth whitening affects only natural tooth enamel, not restorations like crowns, veneers, or fillings. However, we can still whiten the surrounding teeth and offer cosmetic updates to restorations if needed for color-matching. During your consultation, we’ll evaluate your dental work and build a plan that aligns with your aesthetic goals.
