Do You Want To Look Up To 10 Years Younger?
if( so, our Laser Tooth Whitening can help! Tooth whitening in Dallas has never been easier or faster! One of the first things others notice about you is your smile. Our laser tooth whitening helps you improve your smile by "turning back the clock" - repairing the damage to your teeth's appearance such as darkening caused by aging, and stains from food/drink.
You get whiter teeth, in about an hour. It's that simple. Years of yellowing as well as stains from coffee, cigarettes, or red wine are almost magically erased in the time it takes for a haircut, manicure, or lunch.
LaserSmile™ tooth whitening is safe, and no other method produces a better result for anyone wanting results right away. What patients tell us is that people remark how much better or younger they look, but don't realize their improved appearance is due to whiter teeth. And, you won't have to worry you'll look like Ross in that Friends episode where his teeth glowed in the dark. Instead, you'll have the whiter teeth like you had as a teenager, and that makes you look younger!
What is Laser tooth whitening?
Tooth whitening is a bleaching process that lightens discoloration of enamel and dentin. The laser whitening procedure is simple. It begins with a short preparation to isolate your lips and gums. The doctor then applies the proprietary LaserSmile™ Whitening Gel, which is activated by a powerful diode laser. (Don't be fooled by advertisements that advertise state-of-the-art "laser whitening", then use a conventional light source instead, such as Zoom whitening.)
Teeth typically become at least six to ten shades whiter, sometimes more.* You'll be amazed with the results. In most cases, teeth get even whiter the first few days after the procedure.
What causes tooth discoloration?
There are many causes. The most common include aging and consumption of staining substances such as coffee, tea, colas, tobacco, red wine, etc. During tooth formation, consumption of tetracycline, certain antibiotics or excessive fluoride may also cause tooth discoloration.
Who may benefit from tooth whitening?
Almost anyone. However, treatment may not be as effective for some as it is for others. Dr. Swift can determine if you are a viable candidate for this procedure through a thorough oral exam, including a shade assessment.
Do many people whiten their teeth?
More people than you might imagine. A bright, sparkling smile can make a big difference for everyone. The LaserSmile™ tooth whitening system makes it easier and faster than ever before.
How long do the results last?
By following some simple post whitening care instructions, your teeth will always be lighter than they were before. To keep your teeth looking their best, we recommend flossing, brushing twice daily, and occasional touch-ups with our take-home gel. These are professional formula products designed specifically to keep your teeth their brightest. They are available only through dental professionals.
Is there any difference between over-the-counter tooth whiteners and laser tooth whitening?
Yes! Consulting your dental professional is always the first step to whitening your teeth safely. Plus, over-the-counter tooth whitening strips, brush-on gels and toothpastes take weeks or months to whiten your teeth just a few shades. Laser whitening typically whitens your teeth eight shades in one visit. Only a dentist can get your teeth this white, this fast.
How can I maintain my new whiter teeth?
The laser tooth whitening procedure includes a take-home touch-up kit and trays that can be used whenever discoloration is noticed. Most often a touch-up once a year will maintain a whiter smile that sparkles for years.
What does a patient experience during the laser tooth whitening procedure?
During the procedure, patients may comfortably listen to music. Many actually fall asleep. Individuals with a strong gag reflex or anxiety may have difficulty undergoing the entire procedure.
Are there any side effects?
Some people experience temporary increased tooth sensitivity to cold during treatment. These symptoms disappear within 1-3 days after interruption or completion of the treatment.
How long does Laser Tooth Whitening take?
The complete procedure takes about an hour. The procedure begins with a preparation period followed by several brief bleach activation sessions using the laser (a cleaning is recommended prior to the actual tooth whitening session).

* Individual results may vary.
A note of assurance
Tooth whitening is a well-established procedure in cosmetic dentistry. Hydrogen Peroxide, the active agent in laser tooth whitening has also been safely used for many years in the treatment of gums and other oral soft tissue.
The tooth whitening process is effective on most discolored teeth. Darker stains, such as those caused by antibiotics, are more difficult to whiten. The degree of whiteness will vary from patient to patient, depending on the structure of the teeth.

What Are Da Vinci Veneers™?
Da Vinci Veneers™ are ultra thin layers of ceramic material bonded to the front sections of your teeth. The process to create the ultimate smile makeover can be done with minimal discomfort and completed in less than two weeks. Da Vinci Veneers™ can replace stained or discolored teeth, small gaps or crooked teeth, and your smile makeover can literally change your life. Currently, Da Vinci Studios is featured on the TV hit show "Extreme Makeover" and is part of the dental team on Fox's "The Swan".
How Do I Change My Smile with Da Vinci Veneers™?
Patients need two or three appointments for the entire procedure: diagnosis and treatment planning, preparation, and bonding. The preparation of your teeth takes about two hours. An impression of your teeth is taken and sent to Da Vinci Studios so one of their talented and experienced ceramists can create your custom new smile. A final bonding appointment is required which takes one to two hours. Your Da Vinci Veneers™ are inspected for their fit, function and aesthetic quality and then your new smile is cemented into place.
Why Are da Vinci Smiles Contagious?
Today a great smile is the accepted norm. The shape, color and quality of your smile can create the perception of youth, health and confidence. A great smile can positively influence your professional career and even your personal relationships. When you look in the mirror do you like what you see? if( not, you can enhance your smile in as little as two appointments at Dallas Laser Dentistry. Da Vinci Studios has led innovation in the cosmetic dental industry for over 25 years. It started with a commitment to provide the highest quality fit, function and aesthetics to our customers and their patients each day on every case. The art of creating your smile is accomplished with the finest technicians and materials available and a never ending pursuit for excellence. Each member of the Da Vinci family daily embodies a quality driven love of the creative process and an extreme devotion to the art and science of dentistry.
The cosmetic dentists at Dallas Laser Dentistry utilize Da Vinci Veneers™ exclusively on all multiple veneer cases and have years of experience working with Da Vinci Studios. We have found them to be significantly better at achieving a natural appearance and matching remaining teeth. While they're a bit more of an investment than traditional veneers, all our patients have felt the results were worth their cost.

Before your first appointment, take a few minutes to reflect upon how you feel about your smile, its effect on your self image, and how it influences the quality of your interactions with others. The following questions are intended to help you with that process:
1. Are you unhappy with the appearance of your teeth and smile? Do you like the color, size, and shape of your teeth?
2. if( so, what would you like to change about your smile?
3. Have you ever found yourself looking at pictures of models/actors and wishing you had a similar smile?
4. How does your smile make you feel? Confident? Insecure?
5. Have you ever held your hand in front of your mouth when talking?
6. Do you shy away from smiling fully?
7. Have you ever not laughed because you were uncomfortable with your smile?
8. When photographed, do you smile with your lips closed or with a big smile?
9. Are you embarrassed to see a dentist because of the condition of your teeth?
10. How would a beautiful new smile make you feel?
11. Would you like to look ten years younger?
Now that you've thought about how your smile makes you feel, stand in front of a mirror, smile broadly, and think about these more objective aspects of your smile:
1. Are you missing any teeth?
2. Are your teeth crooked or uneven?
3. Are all your teeth bright white or are they somewhat dark, yellow, or stained?
4. Do any teeth appear too short, too large, or too small?
5. Do you have any gray, black, or silver fillings in your teeth?
6. Do you have any old crowns or bridges with dark edges that don't look natural?
7. Are any of the biting edges chipped or worn down?
8. Are there spaces between any of your teeth?
9. Do you have a 'gummy' smile - showing too much gum tissue?
10. Have your gums receded? Are they puffy or red?
if( you answered 'Yes' to any of these questions there's good news - we can provide you with a more beautiful smile.
