Unleash Your Bright, White Smile with Professional Teeth Whitening
Are you unhappy with the appearance of yellow or dark stains on your teeth? Teeth whitening is a highly sought-after cosmetic treatment provided by numerous dentists in Boynton Beach, Florida, and beyond. The secret is that out-store-bought products rarely work and are nowhere near as powerful as professional teeth whitening.
If you have been frustrated with off-the-shelf products or are just new to teeth whitening, Franklin A. Landers, D.D.S., F.A.G.D. offers professional teeth whitening for a bright smile with safe and durable outcomes.
Why do my teeth change their natural color?
Despite how well you care for your teeth, they’ll eventually become stained. When you find dark or yellow spots on your teeth, don’t beat yourself up! Tooth discoloration is a natural aging process where the enamel thins out, revealing the yellow-looking dentin.
Besides aging, the following are other reasons your smile may have lost its natural glow.
- Foods and beverages like dark wine, soda, coffee, tea, and dark berries
- Tobacco products
- Poor oral hygiene
- Certain medications, including antihistamines and antihypertensive drugs
- Dental trauma
- Excessive fluoride exposure (fluorosis)
- Certain medical procedures, like chemotherapy and radiotherapy
Teeth whitening gels contain hydrogen or carbamide peroxide, which releases oxygen molecules when they come into contact with teeth. The oxygen molecules penetrate the enamel and dentine, breaking down the stain molecules while leaving the enamel intact.
How does our office whiten your teeth?

The trays are pre-filled with medical-grade whitening gels, and you only need to wear them for 30-60 minutes daily. Within two weeks, your teeth will be bright to the desired shade. Best of all? The gradual teeth whitening results in little or no sensitivity. Lastly, you can store and reuse your trays when you need to touch up your results in the future.
