Teeth Whitening in Saint Paul, MN
You Don’t Have To Live With Dental Discoloration Anymore
Professional Whitening Treatments Deliver Dramatic Results
If you have noticed that dental stains and discoloration are dimming your smile, you are not alone. This is a common aesthetic complaint among patients of many ages.
Dental discoloration may develop due to:
- Staining foods and beverages
- Thinning dental enamel
- Poor dental hygiene
- Smoking or using other tobacco products
- Fluorosis
The good news is that there are effective teeth whitening treatments that can refresh your smile quickly. Our MCMID dental team offers three different dental whitening options:
As part of your consultation with our team, we will help you determine which of these whitening options is right for you.
The whitening gel strips that we use in-office have considerably more whitening power than strips that are available over-the-counter.
Our team will create custom dental trays to fit your unique smile. These trays hold the whitening formulation in place on your teeth, to maximize efficacy.
This whitening system is designed to extend the amount of time that whitening gel is actively whitening your teeth. KöR trays lock in whitening gel, while preventing saliva from entering the trays and diluting the formulation.

We restored the 2 front teeth with long-term provisional crowns in a single appointment so she could heal and enjoy her smile again until we treated a number of other teeth that were in need of restorations.

Why come to the Minnesota Center for Minimally Invasive Dentistry for teeth whitening?
Treatment to Fit Your Life
Because we offer three different ways to whiten your teeth, you can choose the one that best fits your needs. If, for example, you don’t want to keep whitening trays in place for hours, then you may like professional whitening strips better. When you are ready to whiten your smile, you’ll have plenty of options available to you.
Safety First
The whitening formulations that we provide in-office are designed to be safe for your dental enamel and underlying tooth structure. These whitening treatments deliver dramatic results, while minimizing tooth sensitivity.
Whitening Alternatives
All of the treatments we’ve discussed so far whiten your natural tooth structure. However, sometimes it is preferable for the patient to resurface the tooth with dental bonding or porcelain veneers. Our St. Paul cosmetic dentists are here to help you whiten your smile, your way.
What Our Patients Are Saying
After working with Dr. Malterud for a couple of weeks to get the right fit for my NTI, the results are great. I may still get a headache but only for a few hours and not severe.
