Why is it Important to Determine the Cause of Discoloration?
Not all discoloration is the same, meaning that it can’t be treated the same types of staining and discoloration are distinctly different and may require different types of intervention.
For instance, yellowing caused by tobacco use is particularly difficult to remove because the yellowing can be very deeply rooted within the tooth structure. In this case, you may need to explore other cosmetic methods such as bonding or veneers. Some stains, however, may just require mild bleaching with an abrasive treatment to remove the surface stains.
Dr. Carmona will talk to you about the reasons your teeth may be discolored in order to determine the appropriate treatment.
What Types of Teeth Whitening Are Available?
At Austin Prosthodontics, Dr. Carmona provides high-quality, hands-on care that is individualized for each patient. As a result, we offer a few different types of professional whitening treatments to help each of our patients get the appropriate care on their schedule. Talk to Dr. Carmona about which professional teeth whitening procedure is best for you. Because some stains are more stubborn or have underlying causes, Dr. Carmona may recommend treatments that will give you a whiter brighter smile with the help of bonding, veneers, or crowns. If you are considering whitening your teeth with over-the-counter whitening products like bleaching kits and whitening toothpastes, you should always speak with Dr. Carmona before choosing a product to protect your oral health and get the best results.
In-Office Whitening
In-office tooth whitening procedures produce the best results that last the longest. Dr. Carmona will work with you to determine the perfect shade of white for you and closely monitor the process to achieve your desired results.
At-Home Whitening Kit
Professional at-home kits offer you the convenience of doing the treatment at home and on your own schedule with the benefit of professional results. Ask Dr. Carmona if our at-home whitening kits are right for you.
How Much Does Teeth Whitening Cost?
Teeth whitening can cost anywhere between $650 to $1000 depending on your individual treatment plan. Since this is an elective cosmetic procedure, most dental insurance plans won’t cover it. However, we partner with Lending Club Patient Solutions to offer payment plans that fit within your budget.
Investing in your smile is an investment in your self-confidence. To learn more about your payment options, call our Austin dental office today to talk to our patient care coordinator and billing staff. You deserve to have the beautiful smile you’ve always wanted.
FAQs
There are numerous causes for tooth discoloration and staining. You can either experience surface staining from things like smoking and coffee, or you can experience discoloration from the underlying dentin darkening. Determining the cause of your tooth discoloration is a vital part of determining the best treatment plan for you.
- Food and drink: Drinks like red wine and coffee cause tooth staining because the pigments of the drinks actually adhere to the surface of your teeth, staining your tooth enamel.
- Medication: Certain medications can cause tooth discoloration. These include antihistamines, antibiotics, and chemotherapy.
- Tobacco: Tobacco use, particularly smoking, will discolor your teeth because the tar and nicotine will seep into the pores of your teeth and cause them to turn yellow.
- Age: As we age, our enamel wears down, revealing the yellow dentin below.
Dr. Carmona will take x-rays and work closely with you to determine the cause of your tooth staining and discoloration to develop the best-individualized treatment plan to help you reach your aesthetic goals.

WHAT SETS US APART
Had my initial consult today. Dr. Carmona and staff were very accommodating and informative. Dr. Carmona presented all my options and was very helpful in answering my questions. I'm going forward with my treatment plan and looking forward to continuing excellent service.

Dr. Carmona and staff were very caring and attentive. Will be going back. If you need a dental implant or any dental work in Austin, this is the place to go.
Sandra
I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Carmona and his office. Having seen many dentists for my complex treatment, he was the only one who gave me a comprehensive plan with great results. I had 25 year old bridgework replaced with a combination of new bridges and dental implants. I also needed bone grafting in order for implants to work and he was able to partner with an oral surgeon for this. He answered my barrage of questions thoroughly and with great care. I cannot say enough about my experience and have a wonderful smile as proof. As a bonus he and the surgeon were both in-network, saving me thousands of dollars out of pocket. Do not hesitate coming here!
