Professional Teeth Whitening Beverly Hills

In-office professional teeth whitening typically ranges from $500-$1,200 in Beverly Hills, while custom take-home systems range from $300-$600. The investment depends on your chosen treatment and desired results. We offer financing options to make professional whitening accessible and provide detailed cost estimates during your consultation.

Most healthy adults with surface staining from coffee, tea, wine, or aging make good candidates for professional teeth whitening. The best candidates have healthy gums, no untreated cavities, and realistic expectations about how bright their teeth can safely get. People with yellow or light brown discoloration usually see the most noticeable improvement.

You may not be a good candidate if you have active gum disease, untreated decay, very sensitive teeth, or a lot of dental work on your front teeth (crowns, veneers, large fillings). Whitening gels do not change the color of restorations, so treating only the natural teeth can lead to uneven results if your existing dental work is a different shade. Pregnant or breastfeeding patients and younger teens are typically advised to postpone whitening until a dentist confirms it’s safe and appropriate for them personally.​

Professional whitening is safe, but some patients may notice mild, temporary side effects:

• Tooth sensitivity for a few days after treatment
• Gum irritation if the whitening gel touches soft tissue
• Uneven color if you have crowns, veneers, or fillings that don’t whiten

At Beverly Hills Aesthetic Dentistry, Dr. Hanam-Jahr uses protective barriers and customized whitening systems to minimize these risks and keep your smile both brighter and healthy. Learn more from the ADA.

Whitening costs money and takes time. You’re investing in your confidence and appearance. You need to know if you’ll still have that bright smile for your upcoming events or if it fades away in a few weeks.

What People Should Be Asking Instead: “What’s my personalized maintenance plan to keep results lasting based on my habits?”

• The main thing: Professional whitening typically lasts 6 months to 2 years
• How it works: Your results depend on your coffee habit, wine intake, smoking, and how well you maintain them with touch-ups and good hygiene
• What this means: We create a custom care plan so your investment pays off long-term
