Teeth Whitening
Looking to brighten your smile in Arlington, VA? At CNS Dental, we believe that a radiant smile is key to feeling your best. Dr. Cara Schantz and our team are experts in transforming smiles with teeth-whitening services that cater to your individual needs.
Why Do Teeth Get Discolored?
It’s a question we hear often. Teeth can become discolored for various reasons:
- Daily indulgences of staining foods, like coffee, tea, and red wine
- Tobacco use, which can leave stubborn stains
- Aging, which naturally changes enamel color
- Certain medications that can affect tooth color
But don’t fret—discoloration is a common concern and one that we can address together.
Is Teeth Whitening Safe?
Absolutely! When performed under the guidance of a professional like Dr. Schantz, teeth whitening is a safe way to improve the appearance of your smile. Our methods are designed to minimize sensitivity and protect your gums while delivering outstanding results.

DIY Teeth Whitening Remedies (and Why to Avoid Them)
While DIY teeth whitening remedies like baking soda and lemon juice are popular online, we recommend avoiding them:
- Can be abrasive and damage enamel
- Results are often inconsistent and temporary
- Lack of professional guidance, which could lead to overuse and sensitivity
Stick with products and methods approved by your dentist to ensure the health of your smile.
