In our modern, spa-like clinic, we provide a teeth whitening experience that is not just effective but also tailored to your comfort and convenience.
Should I Whiten My Teeth?
A bright, white smile can make a significant impact on your overall appearance and confidence. Over time, our teeth can become discolored due to various factors, including:
- Dietary habits: Coffee, tea, red wine, and certain foods can stain teeth.
- Tobacco use: Smoking and chewing tobacco contribute to yellowing.
- Age: As we age, the enamel on our teeth wears down, revealing the darker dentin beneath.
- Medication: Certain medications can cause tooth discoloration as a side effect.
Teeth whitening is a simple, non-invasive way to counter these effects, leaving you with a brighter, more youthful smile.

Why are my teeth stained?
Teeth discoloration can result from various factors, including dietary habits (like consuming coffee, tea, or red wine), tobacco use, aging, certain medications, and poor oral hygiene.
Is teeth whitening safe?
Yes, when performed under professional guidance, teeth whitening is a safe procedure. At Lenoir City Dental, we use proven, safe products and techniques to ensure your oral health is not compromised.
How long will my teeth whitening results last?
The longevity of teeth whitening varies based on lifestyle and oral hygiene habits. On average, results can last from several months to a few years. To maintain results, it's important to avoid stain-causing foods and drinks and maintain good oral hygiene.
Does teeth whitening work on all types of stains?
Teeth whitening is most effective on extrinsic stains (stains on the surface of the teeth). It may be less effective on intrinsic stains (within the tooth structure) or on discoloration due to certain medications or tooth injury.
Will teeth whitening damage my teeth?
Professional teeth whitening products are designed to be safe and should not damage your tooth enamel when used as directed by a dental professional.
Does teeth whitening hurt?
Some patients may experience temporary sensitivity during or after the whitening treatment. However, this discomfort is usually short-lived and can be managed with products designed for sensitive teeth.
How does professional teeth whitening differ from over-the-counter products?
Professional teeth whitening provides faster, more effective, and longer-lasting results compared to over-the-counter products. Professional treatments are also customized and monitored by dental professionals, ensuring safety and effectiveness.
Who is a good candidate for teeth whitening?
Most adults with healthy teeth and gums are good candidates for teeth whitening. However, it's not recommended for children, pregnant women, or individuals with gum disease, worn enamel, cavities, or exposed roots.
Can I whiten my teeth if I have restorations like fillings or crowns?
Whitening treatments do not change the color of dental restorations. If you have visible dental work, Dr. Lee can discuss options to ensure your smile looks uniform and natural.
