With Christmas money in my pocket, I think it may be time to invest in getting my teeth whitened. I’ve never been happy with them, and I think it’d be worth it to me to get it done.
Does anyone in DC have a recommendation for a dentist? Cost is going to be my number one factor, but it’d be nice not have to go too far out of the city to get this done.
No, I don’t, sorry. Her staff is very helpful, I’m sure they’d be able to give you an estimate. Also, I do know that if the treatment is expensive they’re willing to work out payment plans.
You might want to call this dentist in DC who recently offered a deal on teeth whitening through the livingsocial.com website. This deal is over, but she might be willing to offer you something similar. Or you could sign up on the website and wait for another offer. I see dental offers fairly frequently.
Hi even sven, I’m in NJ, not DC, but I just had a whitening session at my dentist in November. They used something called Zoom. It was amazing. In one session, my teeth went from a beigish/yellow color to A1 on the Vita shade scale. I am extremely happy with the results. The cost for the procedure was $625, but I had a coupon and paid a little less than that. Hope this info helps.
Thanks. That is way out of my price range, but a girl can dream. I’m guessing my best bet is to wait until something shows up on LivingSocial or Groupon.
I had good success with a mail order use at home kit. I don’t recall who I ordered it from (pro white maybe) , but it was under $100. They send you the gels and some putty to make a mold of your mouth. You bite on the putty, let it dry, and send it back to them (if you’ve ever had braces, you’ve done this). They make the mouth guard/tray thingee and send it back to you. You then apply the gel and wear the mouth guard for the prescribed time. It’s easy to do, and if you don’t have problems with your teeth there’s no particular reason to go through a dentist. Well, I take that back. The dentist has treatments that work in a couple hours, but for the kits it’s still only 1-2 weeks IIRC. Not worth the $500.
