Superior Results
Teeth whitening should be done before getting crowns, bridges, veneers, or fillings. Whitening first ensures that your dental work can be colour-matched to your newly brightened teeth for a seamless appearance.
Professional whitening effectively removes surface stains and discolouration, even from deep within the enamel, giving you a radiant, refreshed smile.

Why Do Teeth Become Stained Or Discoloured?
Surface Stains: The enamel, the hardest substance in your body, protects your teeth but is porous, allowing stains to form. Common culprits include:
- Dark beverages like tea, coffee, wine, colas, and fruit juices.
- Dark sauces such as tomato or soy sauce.
- Sugary foods and drinks.
- Brightly coloured fruits like berries, cherries, and pomegranates.
- Tobacco products.
- Poor nutrition and oral hygiene.
Deep Stains: Discolouration can also affect the layer beneath the enamel, which is naturally yellow or grey. Over time, enamel wears down, revealing this layer, and teeth can appear dull. Factors like aging, medications, illnesses, and injuries can also contribute to inner tooth discolouration.
Understanding the causes can help you make choices that keep your smile bright!
Top Teeth Whitening Options
Teeth whitening is a simple and effective way to brighten the natural colour of your teeth without turning to invasive procedures like veneers. Whether done at our office or with a take-home kit, you can achieve noticeable results without experiencing lasting sensitivity.
Professional Teeth Whitening
The most effective option for many patients is professional in-office whitening. During this treatment, a bleaching solution is applied to your teeth using specially designed trays. Once the trays are in place, a laser gently heats the solution to activate oxygen molecules, which penetrate the enamel and remove stains. This method delivers immediate results and may also reduce the risk of sensitivity or gum irritation.
Take-Home Whitening Kits
For patients who prefer a more flexible approach, customized take-home whitening kits are an excellent option. These kits include application trays moulded from models of your teeth, ensuring they fit perfectly and evenly whiten all contours. Unlike store-bought kits, the professional-grade whitening gel used in these kits gradually lightens your enamel over three to four weeks while minimizing the risk of tooth sensitivity or gum irritation. Both options are designed to provide safe, reliable, and effective whitening results, giving you a brighter smile to enjoy!

Cost Of Professional Teeth Whitening In Guelph
Professional teeth whitening performed by dental experts typically ranges from $600 to $1200 for in-office treatments. For a more budget-friendly option, take-home whitening kits supervised by professionals cost around $300 to $600.
Why The Price Difference? The cost reflects the unique benefits of each option:
In-Office Whitening
Performed by skilled professionals, in-office treatments use precise techniques and powerful whitening agents to ensure accurate, safe, and immediate results. This method significantly reduces gum irritation and sensitivity, making it the fastest and most effective whitening option.
Take-Home Kits
These kits are more affordable and still provide noticeable results within weeks, not months. Custom-fitted trays ensure even application and reduce gum irritation. The whitening gel used is more effective than over-the-counter products, all under the guidance of a dental professional.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yellow teeth can result from plaque buildup when bacteria from food and drinks aren’t cleaned effectively. Over time, plaque hardens into tartar, which can only be removed by a dentist or hygienist. This yellow coating can form if you don’t brush often or thoroughly enough.
Yes, teeth whitening is generally safe. Some people may experience temporary tooth sensitivity, especially after the first few treatments, but it usually diminishes over time. Always follow the instructions provided with take-home kits or over-the-counter products carefully.
Teeth whitening does not change the colour of crowns, veneers, or fillings. Whitening surrounding teeth may cause these dental restorations to stand out.
Teeth whitening is typically not covered by insurance. Check with your provider to confirm coverage, and we can provide an estimate for you to submit.
Avoid foods and drinks that could stain a white shirt, such as tea, coffee, red wine, fruit juices, tomato sauce, curry, soy sauce, red meat, chocolate, and brightly coloured fruits. Stick to foods like bananas for stain-free eating.
Teeth whitening can last anywhere from 6 months to 3 years, depending on the method used and how well you maintain your oral hygiene and diet.
