What is Teeth Whitening?

Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental treatment that lightens the shade of your natural teeth by removing stains and discoloration. Using professional-grade whitening agents such as hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide, our Maple dental team breaks down stains within the enamel to reveal a cleaner, brighter smile.

Under the supervision of a dental professional, whitening is safe, controlled, and significantly more effective than store-bought alternatives.

Why Choose Professional Teeth Whitening at VJ Dentistry?

Choosing professional whitening at our Maple clinic offers several advantages:

Faster, more visible results
Customized treatment for your teeth
Reduced risk of gum irritation or uneven whitening
Longer-lasting brightness
Safe and supervised by dental professionals

Most patients see noticeable improvement after just one session, with results lasting up to a year or longer with proper maintenance.

What Causes Teeth Staining?

Tooth discolouration can happen for many reasons. The most common causes include:

Coffee, tea, red wine, and dark-coloured beverages
Smoking or tobacco use
Natural aging (thinning enamel over time)
Certain medications or antibiotics
Trauma or injury to a tooth
Poor oral hygiene habits

Stains can be:

Extrinsic (surface stains) – easier to remove
Intrinsic (deep stains) – may require stronger or multiple treatments, or alternative cosmetic options like porcelain veneers or crowns.

In some cases, alternative cosmetic treatments such as veneers or crowns may be recommended for deeper stains.

Some patients may experience temporary sensitivity during or after treatment. This is common and usually resolves within a short time. Our team takes steps to minimize discomfort and can recommend solutions if sensitivity occurs.
