Laser teeth whitening performed by Dr. Jason Kasarsky at his New York, NY practice is a simple and effective procedure that helps give your smile a pearly white glow. Better yet, it means you don’t have to worry about applying a whitening solution at home or using over-the-counter whitening strips. Benefits of laser teeth whitening include:

• Removing years of staining and discoloration
• Whitening the teeth by at least several shades
• Faster results than other teeth whitening methods
• Noninvasive and painless
• Results can last years if proper at-home dental care is maintained

Laser teeth whitening is a fantastic solution for anyone looking to eliminate stains and discoloration in their teeth to get a whiter, brighter smile. Before you get laser teeth whitening, Dr. Kasarsky will make sure your teeth are strong enough for the treatment and discuss your concerns, goals, and your treatment choices. Professional teeth whitening is ideal if you would like fast, dramatic benefits or if you've got dental restorations, such as crowns or bridges. Unlike store-bought whitening treatments, your laser procedure at our Midtown Manhattan or White Plains, NY office will be customized to your requirements so that you get attractive, even outcomes.

During laser teeth whitening, the mouth will be prepared by protecting and covering lips and gums, so only the teeth are exposed to the laser. A professional-strength whitening gel will be applied to teeth before they are exposed to a special light, which helps to break up stains and evenly whiten the teeth. This process may be repeated 2 – 3 times, usually for a total of 45 minutes, or until the desired whiteness is achieved. 

Unless sedation is used, you should be able to leave after your procedure to resume your typical day. However, you should avoid anything that may stain your teeth (lipstick, coffee, tobacco products) for at least two days following your treatment. You may experience sensitivity to cold and hot, but this will only last 3 – 5 days. To keep the results, you must brush your teeth as soon as possible after having staining food and drinks or tobacco products. You should stick to a daily oral hygiene regimen at home, including cleaning and flossing to avoid new stains. Dental cleanings twice yearly at Jason Kasarsky, DDS can also help eliminate darker stains. If you want to refresh your results in a few years, schedule a second laser whitening procedure or ask Dr. Kasarsky about other whitening options.
