    How Much Does Teeth Whitening Cost in Canada?

    By North York Dental Clinic | Dental Knowledge | 0 comment | 26 January, 2020 | 1

    Are you considering teeth whitening to maintain a good and bright smile? Among the different ways of teeth whitening, in-office teeth whitening is the most common cosmetic dental care procedure, today. 

    Aside from that, there is also a so-called at-home whitening system. The example of these are whitening trays and over the counter whitening products.

    At-home whitening systems incorporate only low-dose bleaching agents, that you can use at home. Whereas, in-office whitening takes place in a dental clinic under the careful procedure of a hygienist dentist. Also, in-office teeth whitening uses a high concentration of bleaching agents. But this is painless and carefully controlled so you are safe with this procedure.

     

    Advantages and Disadvantages of In-office Teeth Whitening

    Advantages

    • It produces the fastest results.
    • When it comes to teeth bleaching this is the safest one.
    • Gums and teeth sensitivity are more controllable today. This is because of the use of thicker peroxide gels and desensitizers such as fluoride and potassium nitrate.

    Disadvantages

    • It is more expensive than at-home alternatives. Its cost, on average, is $650, compared to $400 for take-home trays and under $100 for over-the-counter bleaching trays or strips.
    • The results are unpredictable, factors like age, heredity and types of staining affect the results.
    • It has no permanent whitening effect on your teeth. A few months after the procedure your teeth are still subject to accumulate stains. Therefore, many dentists recommend at-home whitening teeth maintenance with a lower concentration bleach.

     

    Different Ways and Cost of Teeth Whitening 

    Laser Teeth Whitening

    Laser teeth whitening is one of the most upgraded methods for teeth whitening. It is also becoming more and more prominent nowadays. Unlike other teeth whitening methods, laser whitening is an easy and quick method. It requires no trays, strips, or other applications. However, the only disadvantage is some dental insurance programs are not offering coverage for this procedure. This is due to its cost, it is considered the most expensive teeth whitening method available.

    Cost: 

    The average cost of laser whitening is ranging from $1,000-1,500. If you are interested in this whitening teeth method, you may consult your dental professional. You can also check your dental insurance, maybe it is covered so it can cover the cost of the treatment. 

    In-Office Dental Whitening Treatment

    In-office dental whitening treatment is the second most expensive option. As you are required to visit your dentist for the traditional, in-office teeth whitening. Same with laser treatment, this one is also an easy procedure. Sometimes, it is also covered in your dental insurance so you can lessen the cost of it. 

    Cost:

    The cost of the in-office teeth whitening method varies. Typically the cost is slightly the same or lesser than the advanced laser teeth whitening procedure. The cost of in-office dental teeth whitening might start anywhere from $200 – $1,000. 

    At-home Teeth Whitening Systems

    If you are not comfortable visiting the dentist, at-home teeth whitening treatment is ideal for you. Common at-home whitening items include whitening strips, whitening packs and pens. These items let you apply the whitening agent in the comfort of your home. Besides, at-home whitening products are just simple to do and give real results.

    Cost: 

    When it comes to cost, they are far more affordable than in-office and laser whitening teeth treatment. Its price is just under $100. With that cheap price, you can already have teeth whitening products.

    Whitening Trays

    If you have stuck between in-office or at-home whitening method, you can go to whitening trays.  This is a midway option between the two because you can do this procedure in both places. If you have stubborn stains that need an extra boost, this method is a good choice. It’s your dentist who can help you decide whether you need a custom tray treatment or at-home treatment.

    Cost:

    The price can range from $100 to $500 depending on whether you use custom trays from your dentist or an at-home method. 

    Over the Counter Teeth Whitening

    Over the counter teeth whitening are the cheapest and most convenient treatment. These bleaching products involve a whitening kit with a low concentration bleaching gel. You can simply apply the gel to your teeth using whitening strips or applicators. However, this may only whiten a few of your front teeth, unlike custom whitening trays that whiten the entire teeth. 

    Cost:

    You can buy these whitening products at less than $50-$100 at different stores. 

     

    Key Takeaways

    The teeth whitening treatment you choose is completely up to you. You may choose the in-office or at-home teeth whitening procedures. It may also depend on your prepared budget or how stained your teeth actually are. You can take your time to decide which option is best suited for your needs and budget. Just remember to consult your dentist, especially if you have any underlying oral health complications.
