Brighten your smile with professional teeth whitening solutions

Brightening the smile seems like an easy way to enhance its appearance, but many patients who choose over-the-counter teeth whitening options are often unhappy with the results—if they get any at all! Instead of wasting money on these treatments, the team at Knoxville Smiles at Malone & Costa Dentistry of Knoxville, Tennessee, is pleased to offer a solution such as the KoR teeth whitening system.

What is KoR whitening?

Costa and Malone describe KoR whitening as a specialized system that uses professional-strength bleaching gel and customized trays that patients wear and utilize at home to brighten the smile. It can be combined with an in-office whitening. It is recommended that patients have an appointment with our dental hygienists for a full dental cleaning before undergoing KoR whitening treatments for the best results. Our team can walk patients through the process of enhancing their smile and whitening up to eight shades brighter with one series of treatments.

Am I a candidate for professional teeth whitening?

Most patients with a healthy smile and no restorations such as crowns, bridges, or veneers are often great candidates for professional teeth whitening services.

During an evaluation and initial consultation appointment, Drs. Costa and Malone will examine the patient’s smile and discuss the options available to them in terms of enhancing it.

How much does KoR whitening cost?

Several factors need to be considered when quoting patients on dental work, so it is best that patients book a consultation appointment and bring their dental insurance cards to their appointment. Our front office staff works hard to ensure patients enjoy all the benefits their insurance provides and help those paying out-of-pocket costs find ways to make treatment financially feasible with payment plan options.
