How white will my teeth get?

Results vary based on the type and severity of staining, but most patients see improvement of 3-8 shades. Dr. Gailey will give you a realistic expectation during your consultation.

Does teeth whitening cause sensitivity?

Some patients experience temporary sensitivity during or after whitening, which typically resolves within a day or two. We use techniques and products designed to minimize sensitivity.

How long do whitening results last?

Results can last 6 months to 2 years depending on your diet and habits. Avoiding staining foods and beverages and using a take-home maintenance kit can help prolong your results.

Is whitening safe for my teeth?

Yes. Professional whitening under dental supervision is safe for your enamel. Over-the-counter products used incorrectly can cause damage, which is one reason we recommend professional treatment.

Teeth Whitening

Professional-grade whitening that delivers dramatically brighter results — safely and quickly.

Overview

A Brighter Smile in Just One Visit

Over time, teeth naturally pick up stains from coffee, tea, wine, tobacco, and everyday wear. Over-the-counter whitening products offer limited results and can cause sensitivity when used improperly. Professional teeth whitening at Gateway Family Dentistry in Chandler, AZ delivers noticeably brighter results — safely, quickly, and under the supervision of Dr. Gailey.

We offer both in-office whitening for dramatic, same-day results and custom take-home whitening kits for patients who prefer to brighten their smile on their own schedule. Our professional-grade whitening agents are stronger than anything available in stores but are carefully applied to minimize sensitivity.

Whether you're preparing for a special event, want to refresh your appearance, or simply feel self-conscious about discolored teeth, professional whitening is one of the fastest and most affordable ways to transform your smile.

Cleaning

A professional cleaning removes surface plaque and tartar so the whitening agent can work evenly across all tooth surfaces.
