Get A Brighter Smile With Teeth Whitening

Eliminate Years Of Stains In As Little As One Visit

Our teeth go through a lot. Over time, stains can build up from drinks like coffee, tea, and wine, foods like berries and curry, and from other habits like smoking and vaping. If your smile is looking discolored, dull, or stained, Dr. Jessica Burnett and the team at Sweet Magnolia Dentistry are here to help.

We offer take-home and in-office teeth whitening options in Manchester, CT. Whether you’d prefer fast results or you want to brighten your smile at home, Dr. Burnett can help you eliminate stains, transform your smile, and feel more confident in your appearance.

How Does Teeth Whitening Work?

There are lots of different teeth whitening products out there, but they all use the same basic principle. Teeth whiteners use peroxide-based chemicals such as carbamide peroxide or hydrogen peroxide to eliminate stains from your teeth.

Peroxides contain a lot of highly volatile oxygen molecules. When they contact an organic stain on your enamel, they destroy the chemical bonds that hold the stain in place. This releases the stains and restores the natural, bright appearance of your teeth.

At our office, we use highly effective, professional-grade teeth whitening products. With professional whitening from Dr. Burnett, you can enjoy faster results, a brighter smile, and enhanced safety compared to using over-the-counter teeth whitening kits.

The Benefits Of Teeth Whitening

Love your smile again – If your teeth are stained or discolored, you may feel self-conscious about your appearance and avoid smiling, laughing, or even eating around other people. With teeth whitening, though, you can eliminate stains, enjoy a brighter smile, and love how you look.
Look and feel younger – Stained, discolored teeth can make you look older than you really are. So by eliminating stains from your teeth, you can enjoy a more youthful, rejuvenated appearance.
Totally non-invasive – Teeth whitening requires absolutely no needles, no drilling, and no other invasive steps. It’s a super simple and safe way to get started with cosmetic dentistry, especially for people who may have dental anxiety.
Affordable treatment – If you’d like to enhance your smile without overspending, teeth whitening is a fantastic choice. Compared to alternatives like veneers and dental bonding, it’s typically a much more budget-friendly option.

Enjoy Immediate Results With In-Office Teeth Whitening

If you’d like fast results for a special occasion like a wedding, business meeting, or photo shoot, in-office teeth whitening from Dr. Burnett may be right for you. With professional in-office whitening, it’s usually possible to brighten your teeth by 5-10 shades in just a single visit to Sweet Magnolia Dentistry.

The in-office teeth whitening process

To begin the process, Dr. Burnett will clean your teeth. Then, she will coat your gums with a special protective liquid and use dental retractors to keep your lips, tongue, and cheeks away from your teeth.

Next, she will apply a layer of whitening liquid to your teeth and activate it with a UV light. This enhances the effects of the whitening liquid. Dr. Burnett will leave the whitener in place for about five minutes.

Then, she will rinse it away, check the brightness of your smile, and repeat the process, if necessary. Once your smile has reached your ideal shade, you’ll be all done! Most patients only need one visit, but patients with deep stains may require a follow-up visit.

Enhance Your Smile In Comfort With Take-Home Whitening

Take-home teeth whitening uses custom-built whitening trays and a set of professional-grade whitening products. With take-home whitening from Dr. Burnett at Sweet Magnolia Dentistry, you can transform your teeth from the comfort of your own home.

The take-home whitening process

First, you’ll come to Sweet Magnolia Dentistry for a quick visit with Dr. Burnett. She will take digital impressions of your teeth, then send these to a dental lab. Here, a technician will create a set of custom-fitted whitening trays that will fit over your teeth perfectly.

Your new trays will arrive at our office in about 2-3 weeks, and you’ll come and pick them up, along with a set of whitening products. Dr. Burnett will give you instructions on how to use them, then send you home to begin the whitening process.

Typically, you’ll whiten your teeth by about an hour per day. You’ll start seeing noticeable results within 1-2 weeks, and maximum results within 3-4 weeks. This makes take-home whitening a great option for patients who would like to whiten their smile more gradually.
