Today I had an amazing cleaning/polish/fluoride treatment with Su Jean. I know that the word "amazing" isn't usually associated with a 6-month dental check-up, but the appointment was thorough and painless, plus I learned a lot of great dental care tips from Su Jean...not to mention her sense of humour, friendly vibe and professionalism. Highly recommend!

This dental office is the ONE!✨ Dr. Vakilian and her team have such a compassionate approach to their practice. They are highly educated and well-rounded in their expertise, and really take the extra time to listen to their clients and make them feel safe and cared for. I felt like I was an active participant in my experience, not just a victim of what has the potential to be an unpleasant service. As someone with a lot of past trauma from dental work as a kid, they renewed my faith in dental care. Highly recommend! d my faith in dental care.

Teeth Whitening

Woman's bright white smile

Teeth Whitening

A white, radiant smile changes the way you see the world and the way the world sees you. At HealthOne Dental, our cosmetic teeth whitening treatments will make your smile noticeably whiter and brighter in only one visit.

What Causes Tooth Discolouration or Yellowing?

There are two common types of tooth discolouration: extrinsic (stains to the outside of the tooth) and intrinsic (stains that discolour a tooth from within the tooth).

External stains are caused by substances that your teeth come in contact with on a regular basis. Common offenders for teeth yellowing include red wine, coffee, tea, and tobacco. The colour of our teeth can also darken with age and gradual accumulation of surface stains. Internal discolouration reflects your tooth’s health condition and often occurs as a result of dental treatment procedures, excessive fluoride exposure, and certain antibiotics.

Teeth whitening is completely safe and the most affordable way to improve the aesthetics of your smile. It is an ideal treatment for people who have healthy, unrestored teeth (no fillings). Individuals with yellow tones to their teeth generally respond best to teeth whitening.

What are the Types of Teeth Whitening Treatments?

There are many teeth whitening products and systems available on the market. The most common options include whitening toothpastes, over-the-counter gels, mouth rinses, whitening strips, trays, as well as professional whitening treatments obtained from a dentist.

Over the Counter Ready-Made Treatments

01 Whitening Toothpastes
All toothpastes help to remove surface stains because they contain mild abrasives. Whitening toothpastes can lighten the tooth’s colour by only one shade. In contrast, prescription strength whitening conducted in your dentist’s office can make your teeth three to eight shades lighter.
02 Over-the-Counter Whitening Strips and Gels
Whitening gels are clear, peroxide-based gels applied with a small brush directly to the surface of your teeth. They are very thin, virtually invisible strips that are coated with a peroxide-based whitening gel.
03 Whitening Rinses
Among the newest whitening products available are whitening rinses. Like most mouthwashes, they freshen breath and help reduce dental plaque and gum disease. These products also include ingredients such as hydrogen peroxide which can whiten the teeth.

Professional Teeth Whitening Options

The best teeth whitening treatments are provided or performed by a dentist to ensure that your teeth stay healthy while being whitened.
01 In-Office Whitening
In-office whitening is the fastest and most effective way to whiten teeth. At our dental office, the whitening product is applied directly to the teeth. These products may be used in combination with heat, a special light, or a laser. We make sure our patients are as comfortable as possible during in-office whitening appointments and explain every step of the procedure to you. Dramatic results are seen in only one 60 to 75-minute treatment. To lighten your teeth many shades, 2-3 appointments may be needed.
02 Professional Custom Fitted Teeth Trays & Take Home Teeth Whitening Kits
Professional at-home tooth whitening systems involve filling a custom tray with a professional grade gel whitening solution. The whitening solution typically contains a peroxide-bleaching agent and the custom fitted teeth trays are made using a mould of your teeth so they adhere better and produce better results.

Professional custom fitted tray-based teeth whitening works better because it uses a stronger, more effective solution that is dentist approved. This gives you peace of mind in knowing your teeth whitening is being done safely and without causing damage to your teeth. Treatment times vary depending on the degree of discoloration and desired level of whitening to be achieved. Along with your custom tray, you will be given 2 syringes of professional-grade whitening gel. This gives you the freedom to decide when you want to whiten your teeth at home.

Is Teeth Whitening at a Dentist’s Office Better Than Home Treatment?

Over the counter ready-made treatments aren’t the same as getting your teeth whitened through a professional. You will want to consider a few important differences before making a decision about how to whiten your teeth.
01 Strength of the Bleaching Agent
Over the counter products and dentist-supervised at-home products usually contain a lower strength bleaching agent. These products typically have about a 10% to 22% carbamide peroxide content, which is equivalent to about 3% hydrogen peroxide. At HealthOne Dental, our professionally applied tooth whitening products contain hydrogen peroxide in concentrations ranging from 15% to 43%.
02 Supervision
When done in-office, your dentist can perform a complete oral exam and consider your medical history, which can be helpful in determining if bleaching is an appropriate course of treatment for you. Your dentist will also consider the type and extent of stains you have on your teeth.

If you prefer our Professional Custom Fitted Teeth Trays & Take Home Teeth Whitening Kits, your dentist can clear up any questions about the directions, make sure your custom tray fits properly, check your gums for signs of irritation, and generally follow-up to see how the process is working.
03 Protective Measures taken at In-Office Whitening session
At HealthOne Dental, as in many dental offices, during the In-Office whitening session, your dentist will apply a gel or rubber shield over the gum tissue prior to treatment to protect your oral cavities from the effects of the bleaching. Over the Counter Ready-Made Treatments don’t provide this extra protective measure.
