Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is the simplest, most economical & effective cosmetic dental procedure. In an hour, you can have a smile up to 5-8 shades whiter without crowns or veneers.
Professional teeth whitening at Dousman Family Dentistry helps patients in Lake Country achieve a brighter, more confident smile in a safe, comfortable setting. Our dental team uses advanced whitening treatments designed to lift deep stains, reduce discoloration and deliver fast, noticeable results during a single visit. Whether preparing for a special event or refreshing your appearance, our Dousman dental office provides reliable teeth whitening solutions close to home.
A sparkling white smile is a great way to make a first impression. 48% of people say a smile is the first thing they notice when meeting someone new. Unfortunately, teeth rarely stay as white as we'd like them to without a little help. Dousman Family Dentistry's team can brighten and whiten your smile with lasting effects in as little as an hour.
The cost of a professional teeth whitening treatment in Wisconsin ranges between $200 and $1,000. Factors affecting the cost of teeth whitening may include the type of whitening treatment used, the severity of tooth discoloration and if more than one treatment is required.
Most insurance policies will not cover teeth whitening because it is considered a cosmetic procedure. Teeth whitening and other cosmetic procedures generally do not serve any medical function and are intended purely for aesthetics.
Since teeth whitening is considered a cosmetic procedure, it is not covered by dental insurance. You can check with your insurance provider to be sure. We have flexible dental payment plans and we will work with you to determine the best way to cover your treatment expenses.
Professional teeth whitening uses a high-strength bleaching solution applied by a dentist to lift stains from enamel. Before treatment, a dental exam checks for cavities, gum disease or infections, so whitening only begins once teeth and gums are healthy. During the visit, a protective barrier covers soft tissue while the whitening gel brightens teeth in about an hour.
Yes! Patients with crowns or veneers can still receive professional teeth whitening. Dentists first review overall oral health and confirm natural teeth qualify for treatment. Porcelain and composite materials resist whitening agents, so restorations remain unchanged during the process.
No. Professional teeth whitening does not change the color of crowns or veneers. Whitening products only affect natural enamel, not restorative materials. Patients who want a uniform shade often replace older restorations after whitening to match a brighter smile.
Daily brushing, flossing and routine dental cleanings help preserve whitening results. Limiting dark-staining foods and drinks such as coffee, tea and red wine also slows discoloration. Following dentist aftercare guidance and scheduling regular cleanings at Dousman Family Dentistry supports longer-lasting brightness.
Professional teeth whitening results last from several months up to a few years, depending on habits and oral hygiene. Tobacco use, diet and home care routines influence how quickly stains return. Many patients schedule touch-up treatments once or twice per year to keep their teeth looking bright.
If your stains are too severe to benefit from teeth whitening, you can also consider getting veneers. Dental veneers can be placed on the surface of the teeth to cover dark stains not corrected by teeth whitening. Consult with one of our dentists to learn which option is right for you.

My daughters go there and it’s been good. Let’s be honest nobody wants to go to the dentist but at least my kids don’t get upset at having to go so that’s a really good thing.
We have been going here for 17 years and really love the hometown feeling. My son is Autistic and they treat him with respect and at whatever level he needs for the moment.
I will be the first to say- I hate going to the Dentist. So my skepticism is always high when looking for a new Dentist office.I’ve had a one appt crown placed, and some other work and I am blown away at the care I have received. Everyone is friendly, the procedures are absolutely painless and prices/copays are absolutely reasonable, in fact cheaper than Dentist office options a few miles west.I 100% am glad I decided to give them a try and couldn’t be happier with the care I received.
Great experience here. Would highly recommend. Jen is an excellent hygienist.
Everything about Dousman Family Dentistry is a solid 5-star. From the communication in making your 1st appointment, including everyone at the reception counter, billing, dental assistants and hygienists. Then there's Dr. Goral. A Dentist who actually listens to what your trying to achieve and actually does it. Yep they have really high tech equipment but it's Dr Gorals attitude and knowledge that made all the difference for me. Almost a complete upper partial with a perfect fit the first time. Told me to call in if I developed any sore spots. It's been close to 2 months chewing on these babies and no discomfort at all or problems with speech. I have a feeling the entire team works to achieve that.Definitely the best Dental Practice I have ever been to.
I’ve been a long-time patient and continue to love it! Receptionists are friendly and helpful, hygienists are thorough and kind, and the dentists are great too. I stay because it’s great.
Really loved my experience with Dousman Family Dentistry for the last many many years. I am only transferring because we moved. We will miss you!
Everyone who works here is so kind! I have had a few visits and every single one has been a great experience. I live in East Troy and don't mind the travel time because I can't ask for a better place to go for dental care.
I have been going to Dr. Goral for 25 years. Excellent dentist, kept up with the latest. Listens to the patient. All receptionists, etc. are extremely nice. Jill is my hygienist. She is not only pleasant but efficient.
Dr. Schaeffer was the go-to guy for my family's teeth growing up. He put braces on my very crooked teeth when I was a pre-teen, and when my teeth reverted to their crooked ways, Dr. Schaeffer fixed them once again - this time with an expander and retainers. He is a miracle worker! I've had an expander followed by a retainer on my teeth for 9 months and the results are amazing! A genius in the world of teeth!
Our whole family goes here and they have been wonderful with our young children.
Had an emergency visit and was pleasantly surprised at the cost. Thank you for not price gouging during this pandemic! You guys are all great! Thank you for working during this time of craziness.
I had a great experience at Dousman Dental. I had two crowns put on the left side of my mouth and they decided to do them both at the same time which was great because it saved me a second trip. To be honest I never felt any pain and was as comfortable as could be under the circumstances. I would highly recommend them!
My wife and daughters have been going to Dr. Whalen for many years and I started going a year ago on my wife's recommendation. The staff are always very pleasant, it is an extremely clean facility and I feel very comfortable with trusting Dr. Whalen and his staff with my dental work. I would highly recommend Dousman Family Dentistry.
