In-office or at home?
At-home whitening usually means two or three weeks, and store whiteners often don't last. In-office whitening gets you your brightest smile in the least time.
When whitening isn't enough
Some stains won't lift. Porcelain veneers or cosmetic bonding can cover them, and Dr. Haywood will tell you which fits before you start.
Whiter teeth, the professional way
Store whiteners that seem so promising often fail to deliver lasting results. Professional whitening starts with a plan for your teeth, done in the office under Dr. Haywood's care.

Frequently asked questions
Why choose in-office whitening over at-home kits?
At-home whitening usually means two or three weeks, and the store whiteners that seem so promising often fail to deliver lasting results. In-office whitening is designed to give you your brightest smile in the least amount of time.
How does in-office whitening work?
A thirty-minute in-office treatment comes first, then a laser for 1 to 2 hours speeds up the whitening agent so stains dissolve. More about laser whitening.
Is professional teeth whitening safe?
Yes. Done in the office under Dr. Haywood's care, it does not damage your enamel and is safe for people with sensitive teeth.
Will whitening work if my teeth are very dark?
Dr. Haywood will explain your options before you start. If whitening alone isn't the right fit, porcelain veneers or cosmetic bonding can correct discolored teeth.
