Tooth Whitening Costs


How much does tooth whitening cost?

The standard fee for teeth whitening and teeth bleaching procedures is dependent on which procedure or procedures are required. Costs can vary depending upon the area of the country you live in and the type of whitening treatment you undergo. A simple cleaning of one tooth may only cost $80., whereas the laser procedure for your entire smile will cost $600. to $1000.  In-home tray bleaching can cost between $50. and $100. dollars for a total teeth whitening system. Store-bought whitening strips can cost as little as $25. for a total treatment whitening system. Teeth whitening stores, stands and kiosks typically cost between $50. and $150. dollars per treatment.

Generally speaking, the price of tooth whitening increases with the number of in-office treatments required by the patient. Dental insurance does not typically cover the cost of the tooth whitening procedure.
