About This Service
Uniq Dentistry offers professional teeth whitening in North Hollywood for patients who want a brighter smile with dentist-guided planning.
Teeth whitening can reduce many surface and internal stains caused by coffee, tea, wine, aging, and everyday habits. Professional whitening is planned with your dental health in mind, including sensitivity, existing fillings or crowns, gum health, and the type of discoloration present. Only natural teeth whiten, so restorations may need separate planning for the best cosmetic match.
Why professional whitening is different
Professional whitening starts with an exam so cavities, gum irritation, exposed roots, or leaking restorations are addressed before bleaching. This helps reduce avoidable sensitivity and improves predictability.
In-office and take-home choices
Some patients want faster in-office whitening, while others prefer custom take-home trays for gradual control. The best option depends on sensitivity, timeline, and shade goals.
Whitening does not change restorations
Crowns, veneers, bonding, dentures, and tooth-colored fillings do not whiten like natural enamel. If visible restorations are present, whitening should be planned before cosmetic replacement.
The Process
Smile Evaluation
We check tooth and gum health, discuss sensitivity, and identify whether stains are likely to respond to whitening.
Shade Planning
Your current shade and goals are reviewed so expectations are realistic and matched to the method.
Whitening Treatment
Treatment is completed in-office or with custom take-home trays and dentist-guided instructions.
Maintenance
We review habits, touch-up timing, and ways to reduce new staining while protecting enamel comfort.
