How can we help you?
Welcome to Wellesley Hills Dental, where we believe in empowering our patients through knowledge and compassionate care. Every day, I encounter wonderful patients with thoughtful questions about their dental health.
This FAQ page is designed to provide clear, informative answers to some of the most common queries we receive. While these responses offer helpful insights, they're not a substitute for personalized dental care. Every smile is unique, and I encourage you to schedule a consultation to discuss your specific dental needs and concerns or call my team at (781) 237-6511 with questions.
Teeth Whitening
I completely understand patients' concerns about the safety of teeth whitening, and I'm happy to share that when performed professionally and correctly, it is a safe and effective cosmetic dental procedure.
Professional teeth whitening treatments, like the ones we offer at Wellesley Hills Dental, use carefully formulated whitening agents designed to minimize sensitivity and protect your tooth enamel. Unlike over-the-counter products, professional treatments are customized to your specific dental needs and monitored by trained professionals.
How We Guard Your Smile
Some patients might experience temporary tooth sensitivity or mild gum irritation after whitening, which typically resolves within a few days. This is completely normal and not a cause for concern. We take extra precautions to protect your gums during the procedure and can adjust the treatment intensity if you have sensitive teeth.
I always recommend professional whitening over drugstore alternatives because we can control the concentration of whitening agents, ensure even application, and monitor your oral health throughout the process. During your consultation, we'll evaluate your dental history, current oral health, and discuss any potential risks specific to your situation.
If you're considering teeth whitening, I encourage you to schedule a consultation so we can determine the best and safest approach for your unique smile.
