What Is Professional Teeth Whitening?
Professional teeth whitening uses a whitening gel applied by a dental team to lift stains from coffee, tea, red wine and time. It makes natural teeth several shades brighter than store-bought strips usually can.
At Smile Creators by Dr. Ripa in Bay Harbor Islands whitening starts with a short exam. The dentist checks your teeth and gums, tells you what result is realistic and chooses the option that fits you.

How Teeth Whitening Works
- Exam. We make sure your teeth and gums are ready and note your starting shade.
- Cleaning. Whitening works best on clean teeth, so a professional cleaning may be recommended first.
- Whitening. The gums are protected and a whitening gel is applied to the teeth under the supervision of the dental team.
- Result and care. We compare the new shade with the starting one and explain how to keep the result longer.
Whitening at the Dentist or Store-Bought Strips?

| Whitening at the dentist | Store-bought strips | |
|---|---|---|
