Teeth Whitening
Are you dissatisfied with the brightness of your smile? Do you wish you could turn back the clock to the days when your smile looked bright and vibrant? Dull or stained teeth detract from a beautiful smile and make you feel self-conscious around others.
Professional teeth whitening at our NYC dental office provides a way for you to regain that youthful brightness and feel great about your smile again. Our dentists understand the busy lifestyles New Yorkers, so we offer in-office teeth whitening or custom take-home kits that you can use at your convenience.
How Time Takes Its Toll on Your Bright Smile
Everyone will experience some staining and dulling of their teeth over the years, even in their twenties. But many of us also accelerate the process with the foods and drinks we consume and the lifestyle choices we make.
Coffee, dark teas, and red wine deposit stains on your teeth as do highly pigmented foods like dark berries or soy sauce. If you’re a smoker, you already know the habit has detracted from your smile in the form of brown stains and discoloration on your teeth.
Poor oral hygiene habits also allow plaque and tartar to build up on your teeth, contributing further to a dull, drab-looking smile.
Professional In-Office Teeth Whitening
Many of our patients choose in-office teeth whitening at our Midtown Manhattan dental office because it’s the fastest way to achieve stunning results. If you are on a tight timeline for any big event where you want and need to look your best, in-office whitening is the way to go.
During the procedure, our cosmetic dentists make sure your gums are protected from irritation to avoid any discomfort. They use powerful prescription-strength whiteners that are formulated to help avoid any tooth sensitivity and get your teeth their whitest white. After one in-office whitening treatment, most patients see results that boost the brightness of their teeth by as many as six shades.
Customized Take-Home Kits
You’ve got a busy life with a lot of commitments, and you don’t have time to take an hour out of your day to have your teeth whitened at the dentist’s office. For you, we recommend a customized take-home whitening kit that you use at your convenience.
Our 10019 cosmetic dentists take impressions of your teeth that will be used to fabricate customized whitening trays. We’ll show you how to place the whitening gel in the trays and give you instructions to wear them every day for 20-30 minutes for two weeks.
The trays fit snugly over your teeth to prevent the whitening gel from seeping out and irritating your gums. And since the whiteners are in contact with your teeth for longer periods, many patients find that take-home whitening kits produce brighter, longer-lasting results than in-office treatment does.
Transform Your Smile with Teeth Whitening
Having your teeth professionally whitened is fast, easy, and affordable and delivers stunning results that will have you loving your smile again. The first step is to arrange a dental cleaning at our New York dental office so we can remove all the plaque and tartar from your teeth. This ensures that, when you whiten, the results will be consistent and beautiful.

Frequently Asked Questions
Professional teeth whitening at the NYC dental office of Dr. Andriy Krayniy and Dr. Rosemarie Zimmerman can make a dramatic difference to your smile and overall appearance. It’s such a joy to smile with confidence again! Of course, you want that great feeling to last as long as possible, so here are a few tips that will help extend the results of your teeth whitening treatment:
- Practice excellent oral hygiene: Diligent brushing and flossing can do a lot to maintain your bright, white smile. Also, routine teeth cleanings every six months remove plaque and tartar that dulls your smile and leaves a bright, fresh smile behind.
- Avoid stain-producing foods: There's a long list of foods and beverages that can quickly undo the bright effects of a professional teeth whitening treatment. Some that you need to be aware of are coffee, dark tea, red wine, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, tomato sauce, and dark berries. A good rule of thumb is that if it stains your clothes, it will probably stain your teeth.
- Stop smoking: Smoking cigarettes, cigars, or pipes are dangerous to your health and can leave ugly brown stains on your teeth. You can smoke, or you can have white teeth, but you can't have both!
- Monthly touch-ups: As part of your professional treatment, we'll also give you a customized take-home whitening kit. Use the kit every month to touch up the brightness of your smile at home.
We want you to enjoy your beautiful, bright smile for as long as possible. Follow these simple guidelines, and you can easily extend the results of your teeth whitening treatment.
