What is KöR Whitening?
KöR Whitening is a professional teeth-whitening system designed to brighten natural teeth through dentist-supervised bleaching.
Unlike a standard over-the-counter whitening product, KöR treatment is selected and supervised by a dental professional. Your teeth can be evaluated before treatment to determine whether whitening is appropriate and which approach best fits your needs.
At Mathew Dental Group in Smithtown, NY, we offer several KöR systems, including KöR HOME, KöR MAX, KöR ULTRA, and KöR ULTRA-T, allowing treatment to be tailored to different types and levels of discoloration.

Understanding staining
What Causes Tooth Discoloration?
Teeth can become darker or develop stains for many different reasons. Common causes include:
- Age
As teeth age, their natural appearance can change and become darker over time.
- Food and Beverages
Certain foods and beverages can contribute to tooth staining. Coffee, tea, and red wine are common examples.
- Smoking
Tobacco use can contribute to discoloration and staining of the teeth.
- Medication
Certain medications can cause tooth discoloration. The severity and type of medication-related staining can affect whether whitening is appropriate.
- Genetics
The natural color of your teeth can vary from person to person.
Poor oral hygiene can contribute to staining and discoloration.
- Dental Trauma
Previous accidents or injuries involving the teeth can sometimes affect their appearance.
At our Smithtown, NY office, your dentist can evaluate the cause of your discoloration and determine whether KöR Whitening is an appropriate option.

Start with an evaluation
Before We Whiten Your Teeth, We Check Your Oral Health
At our Smithtown, NY office, professional whitening begins with an examination of your teeth. Before treatment, your dentist checks for issues such as cavities that could affect the whitening process. If cavities are present, they should be addressed before whitening treatment begins.
This evaluation also gives your dentist an opportunity to determine whether the type of discoloration you have is likely to respond to whitening or whether another cosmetic treatment may be more appropriate.

What Makes KöR Different from Over-the-Counter Whitening?
One of the main differences is professional supervision. With dentist-supervised KöR Whitening in Smithtown, NY, your teeth can be evaluated before treatment and the whitening approach can be selected according to your individual needs.

Difficult stains
Can KöR Whiten Tetracycline-Stained Teeth?
Some of the most difficult discoloration to address is associated with tetracycline staining. Tetracycline-related discoloration can appear darker and may be more resistant to conventional whitening.
KöR offers KöR ULTRA-T, a system specifically intended for difficult tetracycline staining. Your dentist can examine your teeth and determine whether this approach is appropriate for your particular case.

Comfort considerations
What About Tooth Sensitivity?
Tooth sensitivity is an important consideration when choosing a whitening treatment. KöR’s treatment approach is designed to provide a comfortable whitening experience, and Mathew Dental Group describes its whitening options as having low to no sensitivity.
However, every patient is different. If you have experienced sensitivity from whitening products in the past, tell your dentist during your KöR Whitening consultation in Smithtown, NY. Your dental team can evaluate your teeth and determine the appropriate whitening approach for you.
Crowns and veneers
Will Whitening Work on Crowns and Veneers?
Teeth whitening is intended to change the color of natural teeth. Existing dental restorations such as crowns and veneers do not respond to whitening in the same way as natural tooth structure.
If you have significant discoloration that cannot be effectively addressed through whitening, your dentist may discuss other cosmetic options. For some patients, porcelain veneers may be a better solution for severe discoloration.
Your smile
KöR Whitening for a Natural-Looking Smile
The goal of professional whitening is not simply to make teeth look as white as possible.
Your dentist can evaluate your natural tooth color, existing discoloration, oral health, and cosmetic goals before treatment. This allows the whitening process to be approached as part of your overall smile rather than as a one-size-fits-all treatment.
