As always, I received an excellent cleaning from Hygienist, Jessica Ross, along with a thorough explanation of anything she observes. In addition to her dental care proficiency, her wonderful good nature and humor make my visit enjoyable and constructive.

I was able to get an appointment the same week even though they’re super busy. Selda did my dental cleaning and did an excellent job. I had a ton of staining from coffee that she took the extra time to completely get rid of! She had an excellent bedside manner and didn’t rush through things. They have an orthodontist that works there on Mondays too which is nice. They accept most insurance companies too. I was able to add on a fluoride treatment for $45 (insurance doesn’t cover this) to further protect my teeth too. Will continue to come back!

Friendly and knowledgeable staff explained all of the procedures and steps. The attending Doctor was professional, kind, and patient given dentists are most certainly not in my comfort zone. Would highly recommend across the board.
We use state-of-the-art whitening systems designed to deliver noticeably brighter smiles in fewer sessions. Our in-office treatments use professional-grade gels and safe light-activated technology to effectively remove years of stains from coffee, wine, tobacco, and more.
No two smiles are the same. That’s why we create customized teeth whitening treatment plans based on your goals, dental history, and level of sensitivity. Whether you're preparing for a special occasion or seeking a long-term solution, we tailor the process to suit your needs.
Our experienced team of Boston dentists specializes in cosmetic treatments, including teeth whitening. You can count on expert care, thorough evaluations, and a focus on your comfort and safety throughout the procedure.
Our whitening treatments are not only effective—they’re safe and designed for lasting results. We also offer tips and take-home products to help you maintain your bright smile between visits.
Your teeth whitening journey at Gentle Dental begins with a one-on-one consultation. We’ll discuss your whitening goals—whether you’re aiming for a brighter smile for a special event or long-term enhancement—and recommend the best treatment approach for your needs.
Before whitening, our dental professionals will perform a full oral health evaluation to ensure your teeth and gums are healthy. This step helps us customize your treatment and rule out any underlying issues that could affect results.
Our in-office teeth whitening treatment uses professional-grade whitening gel and advanced technology to safely lift stains from enamel. We’ll protect your gums, apply the whitening gel, and activate it with a special light to enhance results. The process is quick, effective, and performed in a single visit.
A typical in-office whitening session lasts about 45 to 60 minutes. Most patients experience little to no discomfort, and you can expect to see noticeably whiter teeth before you leave our office.
Gentle Dental also offers customized take-home whitening kits. These kits include form-fitted trays and professional-strength gel, allowing you to whiten your teeth gradually from the comfort of your home—with guidance from our dental team.
To help you maintain your brighter smile, we provide personalized advice on oral hygiene habits, foods to avoid, and when to schedule touch-up treatments. With proper care, your whitening results can last even longer.
Understanding what leads to tooth discoloration can help you make informed choices about whitening treatments and prevention strategies.
Certain foods and drinks are known to stain teeth over time. Coffee, tea, red wine, soda, and deeply pigmented foods like berries and tomato sauce can leave behind surface stains that dull your smile.
Habits such as smoking or chewing tobacco significantly contribute to yellowing and discoloration. Poor oral hygiene and infrequent dental cleanings can also allow stains to build up and become more noticeable.
Extrinsic stains affect the outer enamel and are typically caused by external factors like food, drinks, or smoking—these are the most responsive to whitening treatments.
Intrinsic stains, on the other hand, occur within the tooth structure and may result from aging, certain medications (like tetracycline), trauma, or excessive fluoride exposure. These stains can be more difficult to remove and may require more advanced cosmetic solutions.
Teeth whitening is ideal for patients with healthy teeth and gums who are looking to remove surface stains. Candidates should be free of active cavities, gum disease, or extensive dental restorations like crowns or veneers on front teeth, which do not respond to whitening treatments.
While professional whitening is generally safe, some patients may experience temporary tooth sensitivity or gum irritation. Our team will assess your oral health to minimize any risks and ensure the treatment is appropriate for you.
If you’re not a candidate for whitening, don’t worry—Gentle Dental offers alternatives such as dental bonding or porcelain veneers to help you achieve a whiter, more confident smile.
To maintain your results, brush and floss daily, use whitening toothpaste as recommended, and schedule regular cleanings. Drinking water after consuming stain-causing foods can also help preserve your bright smile.
For the first 24–48 hours after whitening, avoid coffee, tea, red wine, berries, soy sauce, and other dark or acidic foods and beverages. These can quickly restain freshly whitened teeth.
Whitening isn’t permanent, but with occasional touch-ups—either in-office or with take-home kits—you can keep your smile bright for the long term. Our team will recommend a schedule based on your habits and enamel condition.
At Gentle Dental Boston, we believe in clear, upfront pricing with no hidden fees. Our team will provide a detailed breakdown before treatment so you know exactly what to expect.
While most dental insurance plans don’t cover cosmetic procedures like whitening, we’re happy to check your benefits and confirm if any part of the treatment may be eligible for coverage under broader dental services.
We offer flexible financing options to make teeth whitening affordable. From interest-free plans to low monthly payments, we’ll help you find a solution that fits your budget.

The in-office Gentle Dental! Whitening treatment typically takes about 1.5 hours, while athome kits can vary based on your schedule.
Most people can safely undergo teeth whitening, but a consultation is necessary to assess your suitability.
Results can last several months with proper care; however, lifestyle choices can affect longevity.
Whitening treatments do not lighten dental restorations, so consult with our team for personalized advice.
It’s best to avoid staining foods and beverages, such as coffee and red wine, for at least 48 hours after treatment.
We recommend waiting at least six months between whitening treatments to protect your enamel.
