A brighter smile is one of the most requested cosmetic dental treatments—and for good reason. Whiter teeth not only improve appearance but also boost confidence. At Magnolia Dental Care, your trusted dentist in Edina, MN, we’re proud to offer three professional whitening options to meet your needs, including our newest addition: In-Office Whitening – Colgate® Optic White Professional.
Whether you’re looking for quick in-office results or a convenient at-home solution, we provide safe, effective choices—all delivered with the personalized care you expect from Dr. Sarah Latterell and her dedicated team.
Why Choose Professional Whitening from a Top-Rated Dentist in Edina, MN?
Choosing professional whitening ensures your safety, comfort, and long-term results. Over-the-counter kits often lack the strength, precision, and oversight of dentist-supervised treatments. At Magnolia Dental Care, we combine expertise, advanced materials, and personalized plans to help patients achieve natural-looking brightness while protecting enamel and gums.
Our dental team takes time to evaluate your smile and help you select the whitening method that fits your goals, timeline, and lifestyle. Every treatment is designed to work with your unique oral health—because no two smiles are the same.
Option 1: At-Home Whitening with Custom Trays
This tried-and-true option remains a favorite among patients who prefer to whiten on their own schedule. At your first visit, Dr. Latterell will take impressions of your teeth to create custom-fitted trays. These trays are paired with Philips Zoom DayWhite, a professional-strength whitening gel.
At your follow-up appointment, we’ll show you how to use the trays and provide tips for best results. The trays are reusable, and whitening refills are available if needed. This method offers flexibility, convenience, and gradual whitening over several days.
Option 2: Whitening Pen Kit with LED Light
Our second option, the Colgate Optic White Professional Take-Home Kit, offers simplicity and speed without the need for impressions or in-office appointments. The kit includes a whitening serum pen and a rechargeable LED light device.
Each evening, you apply the serum to your teeth and use the LED light for just 10 minutes to activate the gel. In the morning, the dried gel is brushed away. The LED light is reusable and refill pens are available, making it an excellent solution for ongoing maintenance. This option is perfect for patients who want a convenient, mess-free routine with noticeable results.
Option 3: Our Newest Addition – Colgate® Optic White Professional
We’re excited to now offer Colgate® Optic White Professional, a fast and comfortable in-office whitening solution. Using a quick-dry hydrogen peroxide serum, this system requires no trays or rinses. After the serum is applied, a lightweight LED mouthpiece activates the formula, delivering noticeable whitening in just 60 minutes.
This advanced method is ideal for patients who want quick results with little to no sensitivity. The compact LED device fits comfortably, and the process is efficient and mess-free. As an experienced dentist in Edina, we’re proud to bring this cutting-edge treatment to our patients.
A Whitening Option for Every Smile
No matter which method you choose, you’ll receive expert guidance and customized care throughout your whitening journey. We also encourage patients to explore our comprehensive dental solutions to support their overall oral health. Maintaining good dental hygiene habits and regular cleanings will help your new smile stay bright longer.
