If you want a bright and brilliant smile, teeth whitening is the right step toward your smile goals. When you come to Clear Lake Dental & Associates for treatment, Dr. James Kinsel and our dental team will make sure you have a comfortable and pleasant experience. To help you know what to expect while you’re in the dental chair, we will be happy to share the details of the treatment with you.

Your dentist will first begin by protecting your gums with a shield. This is necessary because the solution can irritate and even harm your gums, making them swollen and sensitive. When you’re ready, Dr. James Kinsel will paint the whitening solution onto your teeth.

Then, they will activate that solution with a special dental light, which is an ultraviolet light. This will help whitening chemicals soak into your teeth to dissolve the stubborn stains that discolor your smile. Your dentist will paint and activate the solution three times to give you the smile you desire, which should make your appointment about 45 minutes long.
