Teeth Whitening, Astoria NY, Queens & NYC
Having a beautiful smile may be even easier than you think. Many people achieve the look theyve been dreaming of with our simple bleaching procedure.
What are the details of teeth whitening?
Its safe, quick, and inexpensive. Just let us know at any appointment if you would like to whiten your teeth. You can lighten only your upper teeth or both the upper and lower, depending on how much you show when you talk and smile.
In only a day or two your custom bleach splints will be ready for you to pick up. We provide you with a special bleaching agent that you put into the clear splints. With only a few hours of wear per day, our special bleaching agent bubbles stains right out of your enamel in a very short time without altering tooth structure or existing dental work in any way. When your teeth reach the desired brightness, only occasional treatment is needed to maintain your new smile. Well want to take after photos at your next appointment.
Dental bleaching can be used to correct tooth discoloration. Discolorations can be caused by staining, aging, or chemical damage to teeth. Using the latest in bleaching technology, we can offer a safe method for creating a beautiful brilliant smile. In cases of extreme tooth discoloration, crowns or veneers may be the only choice, but because of the low cost of bleaching treatments, bleaching is nearly always worth a solid try.
How is teeth whitening done?
Key Benefits of Teeth Whitening
- Corrects brown, yellow and spotted tooth staining
- Works on people of any age
- Is a near-permanent solution for a dull smile, restoring brightness and brings a smile alive
An impression is taken to make a specialized mouthguard or stent to hold the bleach against the teeth. The material is used each night for about 3-4 hours for a week or two, and at the end of this time, significant whitening will occur. In some cases, the change is nothing short of brilliant. For confidence in appearance, bleaching technology allows us to promise improvements in yellowing, aging or stained teeth. For very severely stained teeth, crowns or porcelain veneers may be more appropriate.
Considerations for Teeth Whitening
Over-the-counter bleaching agents are available for purchase at drug stores and pharmacies. However, since these products can cause harm to the gums and teeth, its better to use products that our practice recommends.

Our Latest Patient Testimonial
After a bad experience at another dental office, a relative referred me to this office. My interactions with the staff here have been fantastic from the start. Beatriz was so friendly and helpful on the phone as she helped me figure out if my insurance would cover me for another exam so soon after my previous one. On the day of my appointment I met two other incredibly nice staff members (I'm sorry, I didn't catch their names!). The hygienist I saw was quite friendly as well and then I met Dr. Arraval who completely put me at ease. She was kind and professional. I trusted her assessment about the dental work I would need done and immediately made a follow up appointment. As an added bonus, the office has amazing views of Manhattan.
