Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental treatment that uses a bleaching agent to break apart stains on the teeth.
As an in-office procedure, a whitening agent is applied to the teeth. A special whitening lamp or light is used to activate the bleaching agent and break down stains. Oxygen is released into the teeth to flush out set in discoloration. The procedure takes about 45 minutes so you can leave the office with newly whitened teeth.
Zoom! teeth whitening is an effective way to dramatically break up stains and brighten the teeth up to 8 shades! For optimal whitening results, use professional whitening treatments with your dentist in Pineville. A consultation is necessary to determine the most appropriate whitening treatment. Dental restorations may not whiten the same way as natural teeth.
To whiten the teeth safely, choose a professional treatment. A dental exam is performed first to ensure nothing stands in the way of your success. This also helps to ensure your mouth is healthy. During the whitening treatment, the teeth and gums are protected to reduce sensitivity.
For some patients, teeth whitening may cause initial sensitivity to the teeth and gums. Speak with your dentist about ways to avoid or minimize sensitivity and always seek professional whitening treatments. If you do experience sensitivity, over-the-counter pain relievers may help. Discomfort is short-term and should subside with time.
The cost of teeth whitening may vary depending on the treatment and the level of whiteness desired. Our dental team can give you an accurate estimate before your appointment.
Immediately following your whitening treatment, your teeth are more open and susceptible to stains. To prolong the effects of your whitening treatment, avoid or minimize the use of common staining products such as tomato-based products, coffee, tea, red wine, and tobacco. If you do consume dark liquids, use a straw and finish the drink in one sitting to reduce the time they sit on the teeth. As always, follow good oral health habits to keep your teeth healthy and to remove food particles and stains.

To start, I’m using my husband’s Google account, so I’m the wifey. I went to Radiant Smiles today and have to admit I was terrified of being there. I usually get devil hygienists who take pleasure in drawing as much blood from my gums as possible as they gripe about me needing to floss. I’ve avoided dentists for over 3 years for fear of vengeful hygienists, but I had a terrible toothache and couldn’t avoid it any more. I went today expecting to need a root canal or at least multiple fillings and chose this practice because they were recommended to me. My impressions were as follows: 1. The practice was clean and precise. Despite the Covid restrictions, things moved like clockwork. 2. The hygienists weren’t out for blood. I genuinely enjoyed my visit, and my hygienist made an effort to avoid my tender tooth while she was working on my teeth. I appreciated that. 3. The dentist himself was HONEST (elaborating below), professional, and prompt. No long waiting in the chair staring at the wall. Turns out my gum was just irritated from some food stuck in the veeeeery back of my tooth that I couldn’t reach. I was prepared and pretty vocal about thinking I would need major work done on my teeth to fix the ache. I’ve always had perfect, healthy teeth, and I was scared about getting a ton of work done but resigned to it. However, I was reassured that my gum was only agitated from the ‘debris’ stuck in the back (a polite way for them to say you have some food in your teeth😂) and a salt water wash for 2-3 days back there should fix it. If not, I can call back to have a paste called in to my pharmacy. I’ve been raked over the coals by dentists before. Luckily I seek second opinions most of the time. A lot of them are, unfortunately, looking for lots of work for lots of money. Honesty is invaluable, and this will be my practice of choice for more regular cleanings in the future. I highly recommend you try them out if you’re looking for a new dentist. The whole experience was positive, and I won’t be dreading my return for a cleaning in six months now!
Fabulous team! Excellent dentist, Dr. D- and dental hygienist Dash and entire staff are very welcoming, kind, professional and do an outstanding job! Thrilled that we found them! Many thanks! Bill & Susan Maroulis
Absolutely wonderful experience! The entire team, from the time you get to the front door were excellent- super hygienic, friendly & the staff was caring. I can’t say enough about how wonderful the dental hygienist Dash was and the dentist, Dr. D, are a 10 plus! 10 stars!
Very friendly and caring staff. Everybody made me and my kids feel at ease, relaxed and informed about the process. They were very patient as we asked questions and tuned in to my daughter's dental anxiety. Wonderful bedside manner from the dentist and hygienists. Highly recommend!!
Great environment once I walked through the doors. I believe I was the last appointment of the day but everyone was still lively and helpful. I was just doing X-rays and cleaning and my hygienist, Dash made sure I wasn’t uncomfortable at any point. Dr. Desameau was very caring and knowledgeable and the whole process was really fast and efficient. My other dentist office would make me wait for so long that I hated going to the dentist.
The staff was very professional and nice! The visit was great! It was quick and educational. I've found a new dentist!
Best dentist in town. Staff are all fantastic too.
I went in to get 10 crowns on my top teeth for cosmetic reasons and they did a perfect job! They made sure everything was correct and took their time to give me the best look I could get! I highly recommend them to anyone!
My recent visit was nothing short of amazing. The staff creates such a warm environment, you’ll almost forget that you’re at a dental office. The ladies at the front desk Zaria and Shannon are very professional. Tonia and Karen made me feel safe and relaxed. And Ms Dash, there’s no words to describe her. She’s simply the best! She took great care of my teeth. I also met Dr. Desameau- very pleasant person. I’m proud to say this is my new Dental home. I’ll be bringing all my family and friends here. If you’re looking for a safe and friendly environment, look no further.
