Affordable Teeth Whitening

/ Glenn Reit D.D.S./

Do you want whiter teeth?  Do you want to not spend a lot?  Do you want it to be easy?  If so give us a call at 212 517 9000 and come on in for your teeth to be whiter.  We have a system that has pleased our patients for the past ten years.  Since Dental Insurance does not cover whitening everyone who desires it has to pay out of pocket and we are getting no complaints.  Realize that the whiter your teeth are to begin with the whiter we can make them.  Most patients’ teeth are shades of yellow, grey and even brown.   For these individuals the whitening product will not turn your teeth white but will lighten their appearance making you happier.

A dental exam and x-rays are necessary before performing a whitening procedure since the whitening gel cannot be placed on teeth with active decay or gums that are inflamed.  We even reduce the price further during our yearly Holiday Whitening Sale from Thanksgiving to New Year for those patients wanting to save even more.

Whether you need a cleaning or dental checkup in addition to whitening your teeth, we are conveniently located at 1498 Third Avenue between 84th and 85th streets in Yorkville on the Upper East Side of Manhattan.  We are one block away from the 4 5 6 and Q subway lines and there is plenty of bus service.

We like meeting new people and helping them to resolve their dental needs.  So don’t delay call today.  You and your teeth will be glad you did.

What about Whitestrips?

/ Glenn Reit D.D.S./

Do whitestrips work?  You know about them and you see them but what’s it all about Whitestrips.

For some reason they work great if you are a teenager.  Whenever I see someone who has really white teeth I ask them if they used whitestrips in their teens and the answer is always yet.  I have been doing dentistry for decades and this seems always to be the case both here and in Los Angeles.  But something strange happens once you turn 20 they no longer seem to work.  I don’t know why it’s just my observation.

The problem is that the concentration of the whitening agent on the strips is quite low because the manufacturer knows this is unsupervised self treatment and following directions is out the window.

Youngsters probably load up on the strips beyond the directions stated and at a young age the teeth seem more adaptable to the product.

But, if you are over twenty; you’re not going to get the result you desire.  However, since the cost is low and sometimes they are even on sale your buddies will say why you paid the dentist when you could have gotten it done for less with the whitestrips.  So give it a try, it will at least alleviate any feelings of buyer’s remorse.

Here in our practice after trying numerous products we have found a whitening system that seems to work for most patients.  No your teeth are not going to look super white but they will look whiter and you’ll be a little happier.  All our patients are paying for this treatment since there is no dental insurance reimbursement for this procedure and we are not receiving any complaints.

 So if you’re looking for whiter teeth or just in need of a cleaning give us a call at 212 517 9000. 

We are always happy to meet new people and help them achieve their dental health.  Please realize if you want to proceed with whitening we need to make sure there are no cavities or infection in your mouth.  The bleaching gel is strong and will not damage your teeth but with active decay or gum disease these conditions need to be treated before undergoing the procedure.

We are conveniently located at 1498 Third Avenue between 84th and 85th streets in Yorkville directly across our very own Upper East Side Mickey Dees.  We are in a five story brownstone on the second floor, one block from the 4 5 6 and Q subway lines and 3rd Avenue bus stop.

Call today you and your teeth will be glad you did.
