Teeth Whitening
Yellow or discolored teeth can make you self-conscious when you smile, speak to others, or pose for pictures, lowering your self-esteem.
Visiting a dentist who performs professional teeth whitening is the best way to whiten your smile and achieve the results you want faster.
Why should you consider undergoing teeth whitening at Bear Creek Family Dental in Lakewood, CO?

Dentist-Supervised Whitening Is Faster, Safer, & More Effective
Dramatic Improvements
Your smile is one of your most important and memorable assets. Even if you have beautiful and healthy teeth, discoloration can make your look older than you actually are. By simply improving the brightness of your smile, you can enhance your overall appearance and even look younger.
Relatively Fast Results
With over-the-counter whitening treatments, it can take weeks to achieve even a minor difference. But as a dentist, Dr. Gregory Bauer has access to bleaching products that are much stronger and more effective. Whether you choose in-house whitening at our Lakewood office or opt for a take-home teeth whitening kit, your results will be noticeable much faster.
Simple, Safe Treatment
Teeth whitening is one of the simplest, least invasive treatment options offered by a cosmetic dentist. If you have sensitive teeth, Dr. Bauer can help you prepare for treatment by providing a special toothpaste that reduces sensitivity. If you want a more dramatic transformation, whitening can also be combined with other cosmetic dentistry treatments.
Whiter Teeth Make Amazing First Impressions
Enhance Your Smile with Teeth Whitening
At Bear Creek Family Dental, we provide teeth whitening solutions for patients to brighten their smiles. Teeth whitening may be a great option if you who have stained, dull or discolored teeth. The main causes of stained teeth are genetics, antibiotics, tobacco and certain foods. As we age, our teeth can darken as well.
Dr. Bauer will explore different whitening options to achieve your desired results. We will evaluate your smile and ensure that your teeth and gums are healthy enough for whitening.
There are a variety of options when looking to brighten your teeth:
In-Office Professional Whitening in One Hour
We offer an option for patients who qualify to have a whitening appointment with Dr. Bauer, and the professionally applied whitening solution offers immediate results in only one hour. Dr. Bauer and his staff are very selective and chose this particular product (Opalescence Boost from Ultradent) because of the addition of anti-sensitivity ingredients (the same ingredients in Sensodyne toothpaste) to the bleaching solution which makes the in-office whitening experience even easier than it was before. Custom trays can also be fabricated as described below for at-home touch-ups after this in-office session.
Take Home Teeth Whitening Treatment
We offer custom-fitted whitening trays at our dental office. With at-home whitening, results can be noticed right away, but it may take up to a month to see full results. We recommend using custom fitted trays for precise application of the whitening agent. This helps to prevent irritation to the soft tissue (gums).
