Looking forward to helping you get a brighter whiter smile!

Does Gleam use Professional Grade Whitening Products?

YES. All products we use require a professional dental license to purchase. They are formulated with the highest strength hydrogen peroxide to safely and effectively whiten your teeth and help you brighten your get smile.  Opalescence offers direct to consumer products but the ones available to dentists are formulated differently to ensure great results and comfort.

Is Whitening Safe?

Your Dentist at Gleam will evaluate if whitening is right for you. The whitening products we prescribe are safe and effective and your dentist will share with you information about how to get the most out of your whitening treatment. If you are looking for whitening in Modesto, CA call or text for more information.

How do these whitening solutions compare to over the counter products like crest white strips?

Over the counter products can be used to whiten but are formulated with lower strength whitening solutions. The results of over counter whitening are much more gradual. The whitening products trusted by dentist are formulated to be safe for the teeth, get you good results you can see, and contain anti-sensitivity agents for improved comfort.  Many patients that have had bad experiences with over the counter whitening that lead to a lot of sensitivity do not experience that same sensitivity when using professional grade products. 

I am not an existing patient but am interested in whitening at Gleam. Can I still get whitening?

YES. If you are looking to whiten your teeth we are ready to help you have a radiant and white smile. First the dentist will do a consultation to make sure you are a good candidate and then the whitening treatment can be started same day. 

Should I get a cleaning before whitening?

Clean teeth that are free of plaque and build up will help you get the best results from your whitening treatment. If it has been a while since your last cleaning ask us about a Cleaning+Whitening. 

Does Whitening hurt?

Whitening can cause some irritation along the gum line due to the whitening chemicals. This irritation is not permanent. Whitening can lead to temporary sensitivity in some cases but your dentist can recommend and provide options to decrease sensitivity.
