If you’re thinking about brightening your smile, you’re probably wondering what teeth whitening costs in South Florida—without any hidden fees or surprises.
At Advanced Dental Wellness in downtown Fort Lauderdale, we believe in transparent pricing. Our professional, doctor-supervised teeth whitening packages start at just $300, making it one of the most competitive options for high-quality cosmetic dentistry in the area.
What Affects the Price of Teeth Whitening?
The final cost of your treatment depends on a few key factors, tailored to your specific goals and enamel health:
The Whitening System Used. We offer premium, proven solutions including KoR Whitening and Opalescence. Advanced systems designed for deep, stubborn stains may have a different price point than standard maintenance treatments.
In-Office vs. Take-Home. A fast, in-chair session yields immediate results, while professional take-home trays offer convenience and gradual whitening.
Your Enamel Health. As a trusted holistic dentist in Fort Lauderdale, Dr. Lipovetskiy goes beyond simple whitening. We carefully assess your enamel and dentin to make sure the treatment is safe, effective, and minimizes the risk of sensitivity.
Over-the-counter strips might seem cheaper upfront, but they often lead to uneven results, gum irritation, or enamel damage.
Under the guidance of Dr. Boris Lipovetskiy, who brings over 33 years of clinical experience, your whitening plan is customized. We assess your oral health first to determine which specific protocol will actually work for your type of discoloration. No unnecessary upsells—just honest recommendations for a healthy, vibrant smile.
How Much Does Teeth Whitening Cost?
When researching the actual average price for teeth whitening, you will find that average prices vary based on the technology used. Typically, standard in-office treatments at other clinics range from $500 to $700, while advanced deep-bleaching systems can cost anywhere from $900 to $1,500.
At Advanced Dental Wellness, we believe in transparent, competitive pricing without compromising your enamel health. We offer clear-cut packages:
Is Professional Teeth Whitening Right for You?
Developed by Align Technology, Invisalign has been the market leader for over 25 years. With millions of successful cases worldwide, Invisalign clear aligners are widely considered the “gold standard” in orthodontics.
A brighter smile is not just an aesthetic upgrade; it is a boost to your daily confidence. This procedure is an excellent investment if you:
Regularly consume staining beverages like coffee, tea, or red wine.
Have noticed a natural loss of brightness due to aging (often visible after age 35).
Struggle with stubborn medication stains, such as those caused by tetracycline.
Are preparing for a major life event, like a wedding or a professional photoshoot.
Why We Always Start with a Professional Cleaning
Plaque, tartar, and surface pigments create a physical barrier on your teeth. To ensure the whitening gel penetrates evenly and effectively, we always perform a professional dental cleaning first. This guarantees a smooth surface, preventing patchy results and helping your new shade last much longer.
Does Dental Insurance Cover Teeth Whitening?
Because teeth whitening is classified as a cosmetic procedure, standard Dental PPO or HMO insurance plans do not cover the cost. However, we strive to make a confident smile accessible to everyone.
Our $300 Opalescence Package is a fixed, transparent price that includes your necessary hygiene appointment with no hidden fees. For greater flexibility, we also accept CareCredit®, which offers:
0% interest financing options for 6 to 24 months (subject to approval).
No annual fees.
Instant in-office approval within minutes.
The ability to use your credit line for other restorative or cosmetic treatments.
Our front desk team will gladly help you find the best payment option for your budget.
Real Patient Results at Advanced Dental Wellness
Case 1: Surface Staining Recovery.
A 35-year-old patient wanted to reverse daily coffee and tea stains. After a thorough cleaning and a single Opalescence in-office session, she achieved a naturally vibrant smile with minimal to no sensitivity.
Case 2: Deep Intrinsic Pigmentation.
A 42-year-old patient presented with dark, stubborn bands typical of deep intrinsic staining – one of the most challenging cases to treat. Using the KÖR Whitening System, including a two-week at-home prep phase to condition the dentin, we safely achieved dramatic whitening. The patient left with a harmonious, natural shade without aggressive, damaging treatments.
