Teeth Whitening in Groton, MA

Whitening is the process of making your teeth brighter. Brushing and flossing are the main ways that people use to keep their teeth white, bright, and healthy. Maintaining oral hygiene is vital if you want to maintain that confident look. The whitening process is easy and simple. Whitening products typically contain bleaches like sodium peroxide or carbamide peroxide. Stains are broken down into smaller pieces making the color less concentrated so the teeth become whiter. Here at Smiles of Groton we offer the best ways to make your teeth look appealing, bright, and whiter.

Why Did My Teeth Change Color?

Some of the reasons why teeth may change color from whiter to dull are the food and drinks you consume. Some foods such as coffee, red wine, and tea have intense color pigment chromogens attaching to the outer white part of the tooth.

Using tobacco stains the teeth since it has tar that is dark and nicotine, that when mixed with oxygen turns yellow and causes stains to the teeth.

Age is another reason your teeth might stain since enamel gets thinner and exposes dentin which is a dark layer under it.

Trauma to the mouth causes darkening of teeth.

Finally, some medications may cause the teeth to be darker such as antihistamines and high blood pressure medications.

Does Whitening Work On All Teeth?

Teeth whitening does not work on all teeth since some teeth may have discoloration due to medications or tooth injury. The whitening process is something that you should discuss with the dentist. Yellow teeth might bleach well while brown teeth may not, and gray teeth may not bleach at all. Our dentist can determine if teeth whitening will be beneficial for you.

What are The Whitening Options?

First, talk to the dentist about teeth whitening before beginning the procedure. There are kinds of toothpaste that have stain removal power, the use of mild abrasives, and have additional polishing agents that make your teeth shine. This toothpaste does not change color, but they remove stains on the enamel.

Chairside bleaching is also known as in-office is a one-time visit to the dentist where we apply protective gel to the gums for protection and then apply bleach to the teeth.

We also provide at-home bleach. Our dentist will offer instructions on how to place bleaching solutions on the tray and for what length of time. The procedure is slowly done and can take even weeks to complete. Before using any bleach make sure that you discuss with the dentist on best-bleaching agents for your teeth.

If you would like to have whiter and brighter teeth, our team at Smiles of Groton is ready to help! You can call us at (978) 449-4679 to get more information on how to whiten and remove stains on your teeth, while also getting all your questions answered.

The people at Smiles are very friendly and professional. They put lots of effort in developing a trusting relationship. They do not make you feel like you’ve been neglectful. They explain issues in layman’s terms and explain the options in a matter of fact way without pressuring you to make a decision. It’s actually a pleasant experience. I’ve actually kept up with my cleaning appointments and do not dread them. I highly recommend Smiles of Groton!

Patient

I had a fabulous experience today at Smiles. The staff is always friendly and they are exceptionally talented at dentistry. Thank you! 

 

Patient

I recently had a tooth filled by Dr. Molly. We are so lucky to have Smiles of Groton located in our town. Dr. Molly is absolutely fantastic. By far, one of the best dentists that I have had. She is intelligent, kind, explains everything that she is doing and just an overall amazing Dentist. Her assistant was great as well! Also, the entire Vibe of the office is great. You can tell employees like working at Smiles. Thanks, Dr. Molly. 

Patient

Everyone is so friendly and helpful. They don’t push unnecessary treatments. They are wonderful if you have any anxiety with the dentist. The front desk is super great and talks you step by step through everything and every charge. I’m so glad I switched over to Smiles.

Patient

I can’t say enough good things about Smiles of Groton. The staff is incredibly kind and attentive, making sure I feel comfortable every step of the way. The facility is modern and clean, which adds to the overall positive experience. Dr. Marc and Dr. Molly, along with their hygienists, are not only skilled but also genuinely care about their patients’ well-being. I always leave feeling well taken care of and confident in my dental health. I highly recommend this practice to anyone looking for exceptional dental care.

Patient

It is nice to be a patient at a professionally run dental practice. Courteous, knowledgeable people doing the right work.

Patient

Drs. Marc and Molly Valli and their staff are continuing the tradition of friendly and professional service established by Dr. Breen. The x-ray and diagnostic technology has been upgraded and is phenomenal. The office has been upgraded with air purifying systems. A very positive experience.

Patient

This is how every business should be run, very professional staff, very high tech dentistry, and very happy people!  I had to switch from my previous dentist and I am glad I found Smiles of Groton.  I had my first cleaning appointment with them and it was a pleasure to be there.

Patient

The Vallis are both excellent dentists, explain everything you need to know, use the latest technology and are gentle but purposeful. I never worry when I go in. I’ve had 2 crowns and a couple of cavities done. Easy! Best dentists from here to Worcester (where I used to go for care)!

Patient

I am a new patient and my first encounter/appt with Smiles of Groton was fantastic. Tawnya, the RDH, was so thorough and knowledgeable and very important to me, took the time to answer my questions without making me feel rushed. I also really appreciated (and had never experienced) the codiagnosis with Tawnya and Dr. Molly (who was amazing), and that part of my appointment was just as thorough.  All around, a lovely experience and I’m so happy and relieved to have had them recommended to me! 

Patient

Nobody likes going to the dentist but if you have to this is the place. Great staff. Easy in and out. Needed filling, painless and smooth.

Patient

By far one of the best experiences I have had at a dentist. The team was super welcoming, knowledgeable and prompt. I would highly recommend this practice- especially if you’re someone who typically hates going. They may just change your mind :)

Patient

Dr. Molly & the team at Smiles put this VERY nervous patient at ease for two fillings and a broken tooth. The weighted blanket was appreciated and the professionalism is impeccable. Thank you for your kindness and care!

 

Patient

Every single person I spoke to and met exceeded any expectation I could have for a dental office. I couldn’t appreciate the professional kindness I received more, and any future expectations of any other operation is probably ruined because of how great the experience was. Thank you! 

 

Patient

Going to the dentist can be very intimidating, but the Smiles of Groton team made my entire experience comfortable. I was a former patient of Dr. Molly, and I was excited to become her patient again, due to her kind demeanor and conservative and honest approach with her dentistry work. As a new patient to the practice, I was welcomed warmly, and everyone was so kind from the moment I walked in to the moment I walked out.

Patient

Even though there are dentist offices closer to my home that are in-network for me, this office is absolutely worth the drive. They made sure to submit quotes for any upcoming work, including my cleaning well before my initial visit, which helped ease any anxiety about whether insurance would cover it or not. The office is highly organized, and their clear communication about insurance coverage was a huge relief.

Patient

The best! Can’t say enough good things about Smiles of Groton. We have 4 kids and one of them is absolutely petrified of the dentist. However, everyone in the office is great and he’s starting to get over that fear, specifically from the great group of people that work there. Beyond that, it’s great to have such a great collective group of people so close to the school system where our kids go.

Patient

Absolutely best dental office I’ve ever been to! Super friendly and patient staff, very clean and positive experience overall. I hadn’t been to the dentist in almost 15 years and my hygienist was very pleasant and gentle. The receptionists made sure to clear things with me and my dental coverage so there was no surprise costs. I would give 10 stars !

Patient

They are professional, accommodating and compassionate! I would definitely recommend “Smiles of Groton”

Patient

There are many things I love about Smiles…the people, the music that they play while you are getting work done, the flexibility of scheduling, and their desire/willingness to ensure the best care without unneeded and expensive procedures. We love Smiles of Groton!

Patient

Smiles of Groton has been great for our whole family! Even after procedures that we’d prefer not to have (e.g., baby teeth pulled), we’re still smiling. Drs. Marc and Molly and the whole staff are friendly and efficient. Highly recommend.

Patient

We gladly welcome new patients! Feel free to give our office a call to ask about procedures, billing, or any other questions you may have. Our friendly front office team will be happy to help.
