Teeth Whitening
A bright smile is often seen as a sign of confidence and good health. However, many factors can dull your teeth’s natural whiteness—such as drinking coffee, tea, or red wine, smoking, or simply the natural ageing process. At Dr. Côté Cosmetic Dentistry in Gatineau, we offer professional whitening solutions to restore your smile’s natural glow.

What Is Teeth Whitening?
Teeth whitening is a cosmetic procedure that lightens the shade of your teeth. Unlike over-the-counter products, professional treatments are not only more effective but also safer for your enamel and gums. Using high-quality bleaching agents like carbamide peroxide or hydrogen peroxide, professional whitening removes deep stains and brings back a natural, radiant smile.

Whether in-clinic or at-home, treatments are tailored to your specific needs
Is Teeth Whitening Right for Everyone?
While teeth whitening is generally safe, it’s not suitable for all patients. For example, individuals with cavities or gum disease should address these issues first. Additionally, crowns, veneers, and fillings do not respond to whitening, which may require additional adjustments to ensure even results.
Whitening Options Offered in Gatineau
At our clinic, we offer two main approaches to suit your needs and lifestyle
In-Clinic Whitening
This fast, effective treatment is performed right in our office. After protecting your gums, we apply a concentrated whitening agent to your teeth, often activated by a special light to boost results. In just one hour-long session, you’ll see a noticeable improvement in brightness. This option is ideal for patients who want quick results, for example, before a special event.
At-Home Whitening
If you prefer a more flexible option, we also offer take-home whitening kits. These include custom-made trays and professional-grade whitening gel. You wear the trays as instructed by your dentist—typically for a few hours per day or overnight. This approach produces gradual results, often visible after just a few days, and allows you to control the whitening process.
