Achieve a Brighter, More Confident Smile
A bright, white smile can boost your confidence and enhance your overall appearance. At Bedford Center for Prosthodontics, we offer professional teeth whitening treatments designed to safely and effectively remove stains and discoloration, leaving you with a whiter, more radiant smile.
Unlike over-the-counter whitening products, our professional treatments provide faster, longer-lasting results with minimal sensitivity. Whether you want to refresh your smile for a special occasion or maintain a youthful appearance, our whitening options can help.
What Causes Tooth Discoloration?
Teeth naturally darken over time due to aging and daily habits. Common causes of staining include:
- Foods & Beverages – Coffee, tea, red wine, and dark-colored foods can stain enamel over time.
- Tobacco Use – Smoking or chewing tobacco leads to deep stains that are difficult to remove with regular brushing.
- Medications – Certain antibiotics and medications can cause intrinsic discoloration.
- Aging – As enamel wears down, the yellowish dentin underneath becomes more visible.
- Poor Oral Hygiene – Plaque and tartar buildup can contribute to a dull, discolored smile.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How long do professional whitening results last?
Results typically last six months to two years, depending on lifestyle habits. Avoiding stain-causing foods and beverages and maintaining good oral hygiene can help prolong the effects.
Will teeth whitening make my teeth sensitive?
Some patients experience mild sensitivity after whitening, but our treatments use desensitizing agents to minimize discomfort. Sensitivity usually subsides within a few days.
Can whitening damage my enamel?
No. Professional teeth whitening is safe and non-damaging when performed correctly. Our treatments are designed to protect your enamel while effectively removing stains.
How many shades whiter can my teeth get?
Most patients see their teeth lighten by several shades, with in-office treatments providing the most noticeable results. The exact improvement depends on your natural tooth color and the type of staining.
Can I whiten my teeth if I have crowns or veneers?
Whitening treatments only work on natural teeth. If you have crowns, veneers, or fillings, we can discuss alternative cosmetic options to achieve a uniform smile.
