Teeth Whitening
WHAT IS TEETH WHITENING?
The brightness your smile used to have is still possible, and closer than you think.
Professional teeth whitening uses concentrated whitening agents to penetrate the enamel and break down the deep discoloration that builds up over years of coffee, tea, wine, and natural aging. At LUMI Dental in Boca Raton, whitening is not a product handed over without guidance. It is a supervised, customized treatment calibrated to your enamel condition, your sensitivity level, and your aesthetic goals, producing results that are noticeably brighter, consistently even, and genuinely lasting.
We offer both in-office whitening for immediate, dramatic results and custom take-home whitening for a gradual, comfortable approach. Before either option is recommended, we conduct a thorough evaluation to confirm your teeth and gums are healthy and to identify any factors that could affect the outcome. Over the counter whitening products cannot offer this level of safety, personalization, or predictability. Professional treatment at LUMI Dental can.
BENEFITS OF TEETH WHITENING
- Noticeably brighter results in a single in-office session, or gradually over one to two weeks with take-home trays.
- Even, consistent coverage across all visible teeth, no patchiness or uneven results.
- Dentist supervised for safe application and effective sensitivity management.
- Custom fitted take home trays ensure gel reaches every surface evenly without gum irritation.
- An ideal first step before veneers, bonding, or any broader cosmetic treatment plan.
WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT DURING A TEETH WHITENING TREATMENT?
In office whitening at LUMI Dental can brighten your smile by several shades in under two hours. We apply the professional strength whitening gel with precise technique and protect the surrounding gum tissue throughout the session. For take home whitening, we fabricate custom trays from impressions of your teeth and provide a professional-grade gel with detailed instructions for use at home. Most take-home patients see their target results within one to two weeks. A brief follow-up confirms your satisfaction and provides guidance on maintaining your new shade.
OUR APPROACH TO TEETH WHITENING
At LUMI Dental, whitening starts with an honest evaluation of your teeth and an honest conversation about realistic expectations. We assess the nature of the discoloration, check for sensitivity, evaluate existing restorations that may affect the result, and select the approach most likely to deliver the outcome you are looking for. We do not simply hand over a product. We guide the process from evaluation to follow up, ensuring your result is safe, effective, and truly satisfying.
Your smile deserves attention today, not tomorrow.

VIEW ALL TESTIMONIALFrequently Asked Questions LUMI Dental
Is professional teeth whitening safe?
Yes. Professional whitening under dental supervision is safe and effective. A pre treatment evaluation ensures the approach is appropriate for your specific teeth and gum health.
How long do whitening results last?
Most patients enjoy their results for one to two years depending on dietary habits. Touch up treatments, either in office or with take home trays, can easily extend and refresh the outcome.
Will whitening work on crowns, veneers, or fillings?
Whitening agents do not affect dental restorations. If you have visible restorations, we discuss a strategy to achieve a harmonious result, which may include replacing certain restorations to match your new shade.
Can everyone whiten their teeth?
Most healthy adults with healthy teeth and gums are good candidates. Whitening is not recommended during pregnancy, for patients with severe enamel erosion, or for certain types of intrinsic staining. We evaluate all of this at your consultation.
How soon can I whiten after a cleaning?
Whitening after a professional cleaning is ideal. Clean, deposit free tooth surfaces allow the whitening gel to penetrate evenly for the best possible result. We often coordinate these appointments.
