Brighten Your Smile with Professional Teeth Whitening
A radiant, white smile can boost your confidence and enhance your appearance. If your teeth have become stained or discolored due to age, food, drinks, or smoking, professional teeth whitening can help. At Caring Dental in Herndon, VA, Dr. Ashraf Adam offers safe and effective whitening treatments to restore the natural brightness of your smile.
What Is Teeth Whitening?
Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental procedure that uses bleaching agents to lighten the shade of your teeth without removing enamel. While it does not completely change the tooth color, it helps achieve a brighter, more youthful smile by removing stains and discoloration.
Why Should You Consider Teeth Whitening?
✔ Brightens and enhances your smile
✔ Removes stains from coffee, tea, wine, and smoking
✔ Reverses discoloration caused by aging
✔ Boosts confidence with a whiter, healthier look
What Causes Teeth Discoloration?
Several factors can contribute to tooth staining and discoloration, including:
✔ Aging – Teeth naturally darken over time
✔ Foods & Drinks – Tea, coffee, wine, and blackcurrant stain enamel
✔ Smoking – Nicotine and tar create yellow or brown stains
✔ Tartar Buildup – Hardened plaque can cause staining
✔ Antibiotics & Medications – Certain medications stain teeth from the inside
✔ Micro-Cracks in Enamel – Tiny fractures can absorb stains over time
Teeth Whitening Procedure
1. In-Office Professional Whitening
Dr. Ashraf Adam uses high-concentration bleaching gels for instant results in a single visit.
✔ Teeth are cleaned and prepped
✔ A protective barrier is placed on gums
✔ Whitening gel is applied and activated with a special light

2. Laser Teeth Whitening
Laser whitening uses light-activated bleaching technology for faster, deeper stain removal.
✔ A high-powered laser enhances the whitening gel’s effectiveness
✔ Ideal for stubborn stains and deep discoloration

For those who prefer whitening at home, we offer custom-fitted trays with professional-grade whitening gel.

How Long Do Teeth Whitening Results Last?
Results vary based on lifestyle and oral care habits. Generally:
✔ In-office whitening – Lasts 6 months to 2 years with proper care
✔ Laser whitening – Results last longer than traditional whitening
✔ Take-home kits – Maintain results with periodic touch-ups
To prolong results:
✔ Avoid staining foods and drinks
✔ Brush and floss regularly
✔ Schedule professional cleanings
Are There Side Effects of Teeth Whitening?
While whitening is safe, some people may experience temporary side effects, including:
✔ Tooth Sensitivity – Increased sensitivity to cold or hot foods (subsides within days)
✔ Gum Irritation – Mild discomfort in gums due to whitening agents
✔ Sore Throat or White Spots – Temporary effects that disappear quickly
If you experience prolonged discomfort, Dr. Ashraf Adam can recommend solutions to reduce sensitivity.
