In-Office Whitening – Zoom!
Our dentist in Encino provides professional whitening. This is a one visit treatment that uses an oxygen-rich gel to break down stains and leave you with a brighter and whiter smile. When the gel is applied to your teeth, we use ultraviolet light to activate it. This process is very gentle and provides you with same day results. In fact, you may see that your teeth are up to eight shades whiter. Our newer option for in-office power bleaching is that of our Zoom! whitening method. There are many advantages to our Zoom! procedure. This method is safe, effective, and results in far less sensitivity of the teeth than the UV light rays that have been used in the past in older versions. This is because the Zoom! whitening available in our office uses a specialized LED light instead of UV lights, providing a brighter smile without the disadvantages of alternative solutions. Most of our patients are appropriate candidates for Zoom! power bleaching treatment.Read Clairose R.‘s review of Signature Smiles of LA on Yelp
At-Home Whitening

Is professional teeth whitening safe?
Absolutely! Dr. Sheila Mahooti has provided patients with professional whitening solutions for years, and has evaluated the safety and efficiency of the processes she provides in her dental facility. She wants patients to know that she will only perform treatments that are appropriate for patients and will not cause further damage to the teeth. She knows how important a beautiful, brilliant smile can be and provides these services so patients can achieve the smiles of their dreams!Which whitening method is right for me?
Whitening the smile is a personal decision that a patient can make with the help of their dental staff that they know and trust. Our whitening process can be done either at home or in office. Choosing the one that works best for your budget and lifestyle is important. Patients who want a same-day solution are encouraged to consider the advantages of our in-house whitening, allowing them to leave the practice with a smile brighter than when they arrived! However, some patients want a less expensive option that can be done in the privacy of their own home with the advantage of having more control over the results. These patients are better suited for our take-home whitening kits. We want our patients to educate themselves on their options and choose the one that is most appropriate for them and their desires.Read Katie F.‘s review of Signature Smiles of LA on Yelp
