Enjoy A Brighter Smile with Teeth Whitening

Reverse Stains and Discoloration in One Visit

If you’re self-conscious about your teeth because of stains, discoloration, and yellowing, Dr. Maggie Grothe is here to help. We offer professional take-home whitening kits at Root Dental. With our help, you can remove years of stains, restore your confidence, and smile with pride once again.

The Benefits of Teeth Whitening

Smile proudly again

If you have stained or discolored teeth, you may feel self-conscious or anxious about smiling, laughing, speaking, or even eating around other people. But with professional teeth whitening in Algonquin from Root Dental, you can transform your teeth and smile proudly once again.  

Look and feel younger

Aging takes its toll on your teeth. As you grow older, your smile can become stained by coffee, tea, foods like berries and curry, or even things like smoking and oral tobacco use. With professional teeth whitening, you can roll back the years! Your new, bright smile will help you look younger and feel more confident.

Open new doors in your life

Whether you’re interviewing for a new job, looking to get a promotion, or want to meet someone special in your personal life, teeth whitening can help you open new doors. A bright smile helps you look more confident and self-assured around others and ensures you leave a great first impression.

Take better care of your teeth

Once you whiten your teeth, you may feel more motivated to brush regularly, floss, and use mouthwash to maintain your smile. Along with six-month visits to Root Dental, this keeps your smile bright and reduces your risk of gum disease and cavities, too.

Understanding The Teeth Whitening Process

With professional take-home whitening treatments, you can whiten your smile on your own schedule and in the comfort of your own home, which some patients prefer. Wondering what to expect? Here’s a quick overview of the both types of whitening:

Teeth Whitening Steps for a Brighter Smile

Step 1: Choose Your Whiteing Option

At Root Dental, we offer a variety of whitening options to fit your needs and lifestyle. Whether you prefer the convenience of whitening strips, the advanced technology of LED whitening kits, or the custom experience of custom trays with whitening gel, Dr. Grothe will help you choose the best option for you.

Step 2: Custom Whitening Trays (if chosen)

If you opt for custom whitening trays, Dr. Grothe will begin by taking a detailed scan of your teeth. This scan will be sent to our partner dental lab, where a set of personalized whitening trays will be crafted just for you. Once they’re ready, you’ll come back to Root Dental to pick them up, along with the necessary whitening gel and instructions from Dr. Grothe.

Step 3: Whitening at Home

If you choose whitening strips or an LED kit, you can start using them right away. For custom trays, most patients whiten for about an hour each day, with optimal results after 2-3 weeks. This allows you to gradually brighten your smile in the comfort of your own home. The LED kit gives you the convenience of professional results at home, and whitening strips are an easy, quick option for on-the-go treatment.

No matter which option you select, you'll enjoy a brighter, more confident smile that fits seamlessly into your daily routine.

Professional Whitening Makes a Big Difference

There are lots of DIY whitening kits in stores and online that claim to be a fast, affordable way to whiten your teeth. But if you’re serious about a brighter smile, choosing a pro like Dr. Grothe is the best option. Why? Here are just a few reasons.

Find the right shade

As a dentist, Dr. Grothe can quickly identify the ideal shade for your teeth. This is especially important if you have crowns, fillings, and other dental work. These don’t respond to whitening, so Dr. Grothe will need to match your teeth to the color of your dental work for a seamless result.

Safer treatment experience

Some DIY whitening kits have unsafe levels of whitener that can permanently damage your enamel. And even more gentle whitening kits can cause damage if you don’t use them properly. With professional treatment, you won’t have to worry about safety. You’ll be in good hands with Dr. Grothe!

Get the best results (fast)

As a dentist, Dr. Grothe has access to powerful, pro-grade whitening products that aren’t available in stores or online. Not only will you get faster treatment, but you’ll also get the brightest possible smile and the longest-lasting results.

Touch-ups keep you looking great

Whenever you come into our office for checkups, Dr. Grothe will speak with you to make sure you're happy with your smile. Any stains or discoloration coming back? The team will schedule you for a touch-up that will keep your teeth looking bright, brilliant, and beautiful.
