One of the most important features of your face is your beautiful smile. It is the first thing most people notice about you, so it needs to be something you are proud of and want to show off to as many people as possible. Flashing a pearly-white smile to anyone and everyone you meet will give you self-confidence and pride, knowing your smile is sure to impress.
If you have cosmetic issues with the appearance of your teeth, such as yellowing or staining, you may not feel as willing to smile and show your teeth. When you are focused on the appearance of your smile rather than the task at hand, it becomes difficult to take charge and accomplish the goals you have set. That is why professional whitening has become a very popular cosmetic dentistry procedure.
Our experienced and skilled oral healthcare professional, Dr. Jack Nagrani, can provide you with exceptional tooth whitening services for the whole family in addition to any of your other cosmetic or general dental needs (such as cleaning and emergency services). At our Hanford dental office, our team takes every treatment very seriously, and we welcome questions from current patients or new patients seeking tooth whitening services.
What Is Professional Teeth Whitening?
You may be wondering why it is necessary to contact a professional for teeth whitening services when there are seemingly a million “hacks” online to whiten your teeth. Everything from store-bought whitening kits to “activated charcoal” has been promoted as the ultimate teeth whitening cure. Still, all of these at-home remedies usually contain harsh chemicals that can damage your tooth enamel.
When you contact an oral healthcare professional providing you with exceptional teeth whitening services, you will not have to worry that you may be putting the overall health of your teeth at risk to make them shiny again.
If your teeth have become stained or tinted due to the ingestion of certain foods and beverages (coffee and red wine are major culprits) or because of poor oral hygiene, contact Jack Nagrani, DDS, to have your teeth professionally whitened at our office in Hanford, California.

Professional dentists will protect your gums, cheeks, and tongue.
