How long does professional tooth whitening last?

2 questions, How much for tooth whitening? How much for teeth straightening or dental reconstruction?

• Answer:

  Teeth whitening is not very expensive at all. There are many at-home treatments that cost anywhere between $30-100. Then there are in-office teeth whitening treatments that cost between $200-300. These are much faster, under the supervision on a dentist, and can get rid of tougher stains that at-home treatments can't offer. Teeth straightening or dental reconstruction is a completely different beast. You are going to need to visit an orthodontist's office or a cosmetic dentist. Now depending on how much surgery or braces you need over the course of however many years, this is going to cost you thousands of dollars. Most orthodontists now charge at least $3000-4000 for basic braces. Dental reconstruction is usually much more. Good luck!
