Prices

How much does teeth whitening cost for Horsham patients?

Teeth whitening costs $500 to $1,200 at Alpha Dental Excellence, and the result can last 1 to 3 years. That estimate is useful if you want a brighter smile without moving straight to veneers or bonding. The exact plan depends on tooth colour, stain depth, and whether the whitening is paired with other cosmetic work. If you are comparing options, bonding is priced per tooth and veneers cost more per tooth, so whitening is often the simpler first step.

Option	Cost range	Visits or timeline	How long it lasts
Teeth whitening	$500 to $1,200	Usually 1 to 2 visits	1 to 3 years
Bonding	$300 to $700 per tooth	Often 1 visit	5 to 10 years
Veneers	$1,200 to $2,500 per tooth	Usually 2 to 3 visits	15 to 20 years
Smile makeover	$5,000 to $30,000	Multiple visits, case dependent	Varies by treatment mix

Prices shown are estimates for planning only and are not a quote. Every case differs, and your fee is confirmed in writing after an examination and scan. See the cost calculator for an early indication.

Good fit

Who is a good candidate for teeth whitening?

Adults with surface stains from coffee, tea, wine, or tobacco are often good candidates for teeth whitening, especially if their gums and enamel are healthy. The best results usually come from teeth without large fillings, crowns, or internal discoloration, which may need a different cosmetic plan. A dental exam helps confirm whether whitening can give you the shade change you want. If your front teeth already have restorations, the team can explain where whitening will help and where bonding, veneers, or another option may match better.

Common reasons people ask about whitening

Visible stainsYellowing from daily drinks or smoking often responds well.

Healthy enamelTeeth without active decay or untreated gum problems are easier to treat.

Cosmetic refreshMany patients want a brighter look before photos, events, or travel.

Simple first stepWhitening can improve appearance before considering veneers or bonding.

What to expect

What happens during a whitening visit?

A whitening visit usually starts with an exam, shade review, and a discussion of your goals, then the dentist recommends the right whitening approach. If needed, the team checks for sensitivity, existing restorations, and any dental issues that should be handled before cosmetic treatment. Because Alpha Dental Excellence has four dentists at one address, you can get a clear treatment plan without being sent from office to office. That matters if you want a straightforward answer on whether whitening alone will deliver the shade change you want.

Typical steps

Shade checkYour starting colour is recorded so progress is easier to judge.

Dental examThe team checks for decay, cracks, or gum inflammation first.

Treatment planYou get a recommendation based on your stains and goals.

Aftercare guidanceYou leave with instructions to help reduce new staining.

Comfort options

What if dental visits make you nervous?

Alpha Dental Excellence offers oral and IV sedation in house, and the sedation consultation is complimentary, a $574 value. That consultation includes a CBCT scan and a panoramic X-ray, which helps the team plan care before you commit to treatment. If anxiety has kept you from booking cosmetic care, this can make the first visit easier. It also gives you a chance to ask whether whitening alone is enough or whether another cosmetic option would give a better long-term result.

Comfort and planning supports

Oral sedationA simple option for patients who want to feel calmer.

IV sedationAvailable in house for deeper relaxation during care.

Complimentary consultIncludes CBCT and panoramic imaging at no extra cost.
