Fremont, CA dentist, Dr. Lokhandwala, is pleased to offer a selection of fantastic treatment options for patients who are interested in brightening their smiles. Instead of using over-the-counter whitening products that fail to provide noticeable results, our team at StarBrite Dental encourages patients to consider the many advantages of professional teeth whitening services. Our dentist offers the below FAQ for patients to learn more about these treatments.
With professional teeth whitening services, patients can brighten their smiles quickly and affordably. These services provide more reliable results than over-the-counter options. Over-the-counter whitening products such as strips and whitening toothpaste fall short of providing proper whitening and are often a lower concentration of ingredients than those available through a dentist. Patients who have been unhappy with the results they’ve achieved with local drugstore options are urged to consider the benefits of professional teeth whitening.
There are many reasons patients may have discolored or yellowed teeth. Some foods can contribute to changes in the natural tooth enamel, as well as beverages such as coffees, teas, and red wines. Over time, these foods and drinks discolor the smile and cause it to look dark and dull. Patients interested in combating these discolorations are encouraged to ask Dr. Lokhandwala of StarBrite Dental about the whitening solutions that can be used to counteract staining.
Dr. Lokhandwala is pleased to provide take-home whitening kits and professional in-office power bleaching. The whitening kits use custom-created plastic trays that fit over the upper and lower dental arches. A high-concentration whitening gel is given to patients, who put the gel into the trays and wear for a specific time every day to achieve a whiter smile gradually. The in-office methods include our ZOOM Advanced Light Teeth whitening system and the Sapphire Plasma Arc Light process developed by the Rembrandt brand. These are highly focused treatments that use light to activate the bleaching ingredients to powerfully lift and address stains that may be deep within the natural tooth enamel. All three methods are safe, reliable, and affordable.
Determining the whitening method appropriate for a patient’s smile starts with a consultation with Dr. Lokhandwala. She will provide a thorough evaluation and discuss the options used for smile enhancement. Patients have a choice as to which treatment they would prefer and can determine if the treatment they desire is best for them.

Absolutely! Dr. Lokhandwala will provide an evaluation, cleaning, and the requested professional whitening treatment. Patients can have their teeth whitened with in-office services every six months while maintaining results with at-home whitening kits in-between.
