Tooth whitening is an incredibly popular service and it can dramatically improve the look of your smile in a short period of time. The price of tooth whitening can vary, but in Los Angeles, tooth whitening costs between $100-$500 per treatment. The total cost largely depends on the number of treatments needed to achieve the desired new tooth shade.
How Does Tooth Whitening Work?
Teeth become deep yellow or grey over time. Whether it is simply the result of age, illness, tobacco use or coffee drinking, there are many different factors that can cause your teeth to appear stained. When a tooth cleaning isn’t enough to remove stains, tooth whitening is incredibly useful.
Tooth whitening is a cosmetic dental procedure that works to remove both surface stains, as well as deep stains beyond the tooth enamel. There are many different types of tooth whitening treatment, each works differently to achieve the same end result, a whiter smile.
It can be achieved with the laser treatments, bleaches, gels, and at-home whitening kits. The cost of tooth whitening is very much dependant on the results you want to see. For example, if you have deeply stained teeth and are looking to get to a pearly white shade, you will need more treatments, and the cost will be higher.
