    Teeth Whitening at Babylon Dental Care (1)

    What is a teeth whitening?

    Teeth that are dingy and stained are unattractive and can keep you from wanting to show your smile, and whitening toothpastes usually aren’t enough to make a noticeable difference. For patients located in or near West Babylon, NY who are serious about getting a whiter, brighter smile, Dr. Clifford Brown, Dr. Stephen Peck, Dr. Harold Gaynes and associates provide top-notch professional teeth whitening treatments. With our innovative whitening techniques, your teeth can be white, bright, and beautiful virtually overnight!

    Why are my teeth stained?

    There are a variety of reasons why you may have stained teeth. Some of these causes are preventable, but some are actually beyond your control. You may have stains due to:

    • Drinking dark beverages, such as tea, coffee, wine, and sodas
    • Tobacco use (smoking cigarettes, cigars, or chewing tobacco)
    • A natural genetic disposition
    • The use of certain antibiotics, such as tetracycline

    If you want to maintain a bright smile, it is important that you avoid excessive dark beverage drinking, and avoid smoking at all costs (not only for your teeth, but also for the sake of your overall health)! However, even if you are a multiple cup-per-day coffee drinker or a smoker, you can still get that white, bright smile with teeth whitening from our dentists.

    Our innovative Whitening For Life™ Program option

    At Babylon Dental Care, we offer the Whitening for Life Program. This teeth whitening program can help you enhance your smile, and have you looking your very best! When you come to our cosmetic dentistry office for your preventive examination, x-rays, and cleaning, we will provide you with custom bleaching trays and materials for a one-time enrollment fee. Then, at each recommended preventive visit, we will give you a complimentary touch-up kit of bleaching gel. With the Whitening for Life program, you will receive:

    • Customized upper and lower trays with enough gel to whiten your teeth 4-6 shades whiter.
    • A touch-up kit of whitening gel at every regular examination appointment at no charge for as long as you are a member.

    Best of all:

    • At each scheduled six-month preventative visit you’ll receive additional whitening gel.
    • As a member of this innovative program, we ask that you keep your scheduled, routine hygiene visits. An important part of an attractive, healthy smile is regular preventive care.

    ZOOM!® Whitening Cosmetic Dentistry Service

    ZOOM! whitening is an in-office teeth whitening service to whiten teeth up to 8 shades lighter. It is great for patients who want to get rid of their yellow, stained teeth in a quick way. You can even schedule your tooth whitening appointment during your lunch break and have your teeth whitened in about one hour!

    What can patients expect?

    The procedure is pretty simple and painless. Before the appointment, we may recommend that patients take Advil to lessen the degree of sensitivity.

    During the treatment, we use a special lamp to penetrate the teeth and remove tooth stains. During the process, we use a mouth retractor to ensure your lips and chin do not get exposed to the Zoom! bleach or the Zoom! light.

    We apply the bleaching agent evenly to your teeth for a bright, new smile. The bleach will stay on your teeth for 15-minute intervals until the desired result is achieved. Typically, 4 sessions are recommended for maximum results.

    Once treatment is finished, our cosmetic dentists inform patients that if stain-causing foods are consumed within 24-48 hours, brushing is recommended. Lastly, to help with tooth sensitivity, we sometimes provide patients with fluoride treatments.

    When you receive your ZOOM! teeth whitening treatment at Babylon Dental Care, you will be automatically enrolled in our Whitening for Life Program!

    • With the Whitening for Life program, you will receive:
      Customized upper and lower trays with enough gel to whiten your teeth 4-6 shades whiter.
    • A touch-up kit of whitening gel at every regular examination appointment at no charge for as long as you are a member.


    Best of all:

    • Keep your six-month dental exams and you’ll receive additional whitening gel 2 times per year for the rest of your life!
    • As a member of this innovative program, we ask that you keep your scheduled, routine hygiene visits. An important part of an attractive, healthy smile is regular preventive care.

    Teeth Whitening at Babylon Dental Care (16)

    “Amazing. I am deathly afraid, and have been hurt by many dentists. But Melody, who did my x-rays and cleaning, was great. I was amazed how much they actually CARED about how I felt and was doing. Dr. Brown who read my x-rays sat and just talked To me not at me for a good 15/20 minutes. Didn't suggest root canals, posts n crowns, yell at me about my missing back teeth. He just talked to me about what is currently going on and his best suggestions to care for it, which didn't include root canals, extraction etc. Therefore I would highly recommend them. And thank you for a really positive experience”

    Should you brush your teeth before or after whitening? ›

    Do teeth get darker after whitening? ›
