Common dental questions

Find answers to the most common dental questions, written and reviewed by our dental experts.

How much does teeth whitening cost?

Professional teeth whitening at a dental office typically costs $300–$1,000 in the US, while at-home kits range from $20–$150. International dental care can reduce costs by 40–70%, with quality clinics in Mexico, Colombia and Spain.

Is it safe to whiten teeth at home?

Yes, when done correctly with ADA-approved products. Look for hydrogen peroxide concentrations under 10% and follow instructions. Consult a dentist if you have sensitive teeth or existing dental work.

What are the early signs of gum disease?

Early gum disease (gingivitis) signs include red or swollen gums, bleeding when you brush or floss, bad breath, and gum sensitivity. Caught early, it's fully reversible with proper cleaning and care.

How often should I visit the dentist?

Most adults should visit a dentist every 6 months for routine cleanings and checkups. People with higher risk of dental problems (gum disease, frequent cavities) may need visits every 3–4 months.
