Teeth Whitening in Port Colborne
Safe, professional whitening, in-office or take-home, for a brighter, natural-looking smile.
What is Teeth Whitening?
Professional teeth whitening at Port Colborne Family Dentistry is faster, safer and longer-lasting than over-the-counter strips and trays. We offer two options: a quick in-office whitening session, or a custom take-home whitening kit you use on your own schedule.
Dr. Gaurav will first check that your teeth and gums are healthy enough to whiten safely, then walk you through which option fits your timeline, sensitivity level and budget.

Tips to manage any short-term sensitivity and keep your results bright.
Why It Matters
- Real, dramatic resultsProfessional whitening goes several shades brighter than store-bought options.
- Safer for enamelWe use dental-grade gels under professional supervision, no enamel damage.
- Custom-fit traysTake-home trays are molded to your teeth so the gel doesn't leak onto gums.
Who It's For
- Stained teeth from coffee, tea, wine or smoking
- Anyone preparing for a wedding, photo session or milestone
- Patients who've tried strips and weren't happy with the results
- People with sensitive teeth (we adjust the gel concentration)
In-office whitening is typically a single fee per session. Custom take-home kits are usually less expensive but take a couple of weeks to reach maximum results. Whitening is a cosmetic service and is not covered by CDCP or most dental insurance.
