Teeth Whitening in San Francisco — Financial District Office
Soothing Dental whitens teeth at 450 Sutter Street in San Francisco’s Financial District, around the corner from Union Square and minutes from Embarcadero BART. We see San Francisco patients who need same-day in-office whitening before a wedding, photo shoot, or event, and we fit professional take-home trays for FiDi commuters and Pacific Heights residents who prefer a gradual lift over two weeks.
Our in-office whitening uses Philips Zoom!, a peroxide gel activated by an LED accelerator that typically lifts 6 to 8 shades in a single 90-minute visit. Sensitivity protocols are dialed in for each patient — desensitizing pre-treatment paste, potassium-nitrate post-rinse, and at-home Fluoridex prescription paste for the first week. For coffee, tea, and red-wine staining we usually recommend an in-office session paired with custom trays so you can touch up at home and maintain the result for years.
Whitening is most effective on natural enamel. If you have existing crowns, veneers, or bonding in the smile zone, see our porcelain veneers or dental bonding pages, since those materials do not bleach. Whitening can be the prep step for those cosmetic procedures or a complete result on its own. Major dental PPOs do not cover elective whitening, but Soothing Dental Membership Plan members receive a discount on cosmetic services. We also stock the GLO Science take-home whitening system through our online shop for patients who prefer to order between visits.

Premier Teeth Whitening Services in San Francisco
Teeth whitening addresses some obvious image and aging problems. First, teeth get discolored over time as a result of drinking coffee, red wine or soda. Second, your teeth also grow darker over time as a simple function of age. Third, people associate white teeth with youth and beauty. Fourth, we all age… in spite of our best efforts to stay young! Finally, we are judged by our looks and our radiant smiles.
The dentists at Soothing Dental are cosmetic dentists. Consequently, they specialize in the aesthetic procedures that create beautiful smiles. We’re experts in porcelain veneers, Invisalign, cosmetic bonding, gum reshaping, and of course teeth whitening. We use different types of whitening techniques. It all depends on your current coloration and what you want to achieve. Do you just want a little touch up to hide aging? Are you looking for a little more sparkle for job interviews? Have you been told you need brilliant teeth for wedding photos? Our dentists understand and can help. For example, you can go home with generic whitening strips or a powerful gel in a custom-made tray. For the most dramatic results, our dentists whiten your teeth in-office with a special lamp that activates an FDA-approved gel.
There are a variety of products that we can use to achieve the results desired. Here are some of the whitening products that we use, Kor Whitening, Zoom, laser whitening, customized whitening trays, and more.
Your Teeth Whitening could be 30% off
Even the best dental insurance plans don’t reimburse anything for cosmetic dentistry, including porcelain veneers and teeth whitening. We think that’s ridiculous! You pay good money for your dental insurance. As a result, you should get some value, right? Regardless of your insurance plan’s many limitations, we at Soothing Dental want to make quality dentistry more accessible. That’s why we offer our own Soothing Dental Membership Plans, which discount your teeth whitening up to 30%.
