Why Should I Choose Teeth Whitening?
A bright, white smile not only enhances your appearance but also boosts your self-esteem. Over time, teeth can become stained or discolored due to various factors like coffee, tea, red wine, tobacco, and aging. Teeth whitening is a safe and effective way to counter these effects, giving you a whiter, more radiant smile.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is teeth whitening?
Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental procedure that aims to lighten and remove stains and discoloration from teeth. It's one of the most popular ways to enhance your smile.
How long does teeth whitening last?
The effects of teeth whitening can last from several months to a few years, depending on factors like your diet, oral hygiene practices, and tobacco use. Regular touch-up treatments can help maintain the brightness.
Will teeth whitening work on all types of teeth?
Teeth whitening is effective on most types of teeth discoloration, but results can vary. For example, yellow teeth typically respond well to whitening, while brown or gray-toned teeth may not whiten as effectively. Veneers, crowns, and fillings do not respond to whitening.
What is Zoom! teeth whitening?
Zoom! is an in-office teeth whitening procedure that uses a strong whitening gel activated by a special light. It can dramatically whiten your teeth in just one office visit, often in about an hour.
Is the Zoom! whitening process painful?
Some patients may experience sensitivity during or after the Zoom! whitening treatment, but it is generally minimal and temporary. Our team at De Zavala Dental and Braces takes steps to minimize any discomfort.
How do I maintain my whitening results?
To maintain your whitening results, practice good oral hygiene, avoid staining foods and beverages, and consider using a whitening toothpaste. Regular dental checkups and cleanings are also important.
Can I whiten my teeth at home?
Yes, we offer professional at-home whitening kits that provide safe and effective results under the guidance of our dental professionals.
How much does teeth whitening cost?

The best way to determine if teeth whitening is suitable for you is to schedule a consultation with our team. We can assess your oral health, discuss your aesthetic goals, and recommend the best whitening option for you.
Can I whiten my teeth at home instead of in the dental office?
While there are over-the-counter teeth whitening products available, in-office teeth whitening provides faster, more controlled, and often more effective results.
Are there any side effects of teeth whitening?
Some individuals may experience temporary tooth sensitivity or gum irritation after teeth whitening. These side effects typically subside shortly after the treatment.
Can I get my teeth whitened if I have dental restorations?
Teeth whitening primarily affects natural teeth and may not change the color of dental restorations like crowns or fillings. Your dentist will discuss the best approach for your specific case.
How long do teeth whitening results last?
