For over 30 years we have enjoyed the polite and cheery good attitudes of all of the dentists and staff at Bloor West Dental Group. On my visit today I was marvelling at the advances in technology in dentistry and Bloor West have kept up with and use that technology to our (the patient) advantage. Thanks for the fabulous dental service.

I have nothing but amazing things to say about Bloor West Dental Group for both me and my kids. Over the seven years we have been going to this office we have had a few dental issues and Dr. Jaclyn Chin has gone above and beyond to help us make informed decisions. You can tell that she genuinely cares about the well being of her patients and she will listen and help tailor treatment plans that fit budgets, lifestyles and comfort levels.

Top Teeth Whitening Options
Teeth whitening is an effective, non-invasive way of lightening the natural colour of your teeth. Having your teeth whitened at our office or carefully following the instructions in your take-home kit will show results without any lasting sensitivity.
Professional Whitening Treatment
For most patients, the most effective way to whiten teeth is to invest in a professional in-office treatment. During your in-office teeth whitening, your gums are protected with a barrier, a bleaching solution is applied to the teeth and a gentle blue light is used to activate the gel. This is done in 15 minute increments and can be repeated 3-4 times in a session.
Take-Home Teeth Whitening Kit
For patients who prefer to whiten their teeth in the comfort and privacy of their own homes, we offer customized take-home whitening kits. These kits come with customized application trays that hug the natural contours and grooves of your teeth, enabling consistent and complete whitening of the enamel. Unlike store-bought kits, our teeth whitening trays are moulded from models of your actual teeth, a benefit that also reduces risks of tooth sensitivity and gum irritation. Take-home kits gradually lighten enamel over the course of one to two weeks.

For most patients, the most effective way to whiten teeth is to invest in a professional in-office treatment. During your in-office teeth whitening, a bleaching solution is applied to the teeth using specially designed trays. Once the trays are in place, a laser is used to gently heat the solution, working to activate oxygen molecules that can penetrate enamel to remove stains. Laser teeth whitening offers immediate results. It may also help reduce risks of sensitivity and gum irritation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Plaque forms when bacteria from food and drink particles aren’t cleaned properly from your teeth. Over time, plaque hardens to form tartar, which can only be removed by a dentist or hygienist. This yellow coating can form on or around your teeth if you don’t brush often enough or thoroughly enough. Coffee, tea, red wine and smoking can also cause teeth to discolour.
While teeth whitening is generally safe, precaution must be taken with those who smoke and are pregnant.
If you have any crowns, veneers or fillings on the front teeth, they will not change colour with whitening. Whitening the surrounding teeth may make the crowns and fillings stand out.
Teeth whitening is not often covered by insurance. Call your insurance
provider to find out if they cover you. We can provide an estimate for you to submit to your provider.
After a teeth whitening treatment try to avoid any foods or drinks that would leave a stain on a white shirt. Any dark staining drinks like Tea, Coffee, Red Wine, coloured soft or alcoholic drinks and fruit juice and any foods like tomato sauce, curry, soy sauce, red meat, chocolate and all fruit except
bananas.
Depending on the type of teeth whitening and how well you maintain your
teeth, whitening can last for anywhere from 6 months to up to 3 years.
