OUR TEAM

How Does Take-Home Teeth Whitening Work?

When you choose a take-home teeth whitening kit at Arnett Dental Care, we’ll start by taking impressions of your teeth. Our team uses those impressions to create custom plastic whitening trays just for your smile.

Our dentists will determine the appropriate strength of bleaching gel based on your smile goals and tooth sensitivity. We’ll show you how to apply the gel to your whitening trays so you can use them at home.

Most patients reach their desired level of smile brightness after about 10 to 14 days of using the bleaching trays for 30 minutes a day.
