Teeth whitening: in-office vs take-home kits

Have you ever looked in the mirror and wished your teeth were just a little brighter? A radiant smile can lift your confidence at work, in photos, and in everyday life.
At Fabulous Dentistry, both our in-office whitening and take-home whitening trays are professionally supervised by your dentist. That means you can trust they’re safe, effective, and tailored to your smile.
Let’s explore how each option works and which one might be right for you.
Why brighten your smile?
Whitening isn’t just about appearances, it’s about how you feel.
A brighter smile can:
- Instantly refresh your overall look
- Make you feel more polished and confident
- Help you smile freely again
