Teeth Whitening in Houston, TX

What Is Teeth Whitening?

Teeth whitening is a cosmetic treatment that lightens the color of your teeth by removing stains and discoloration. Using professional-grade whitening agents, it can brighten your smile several shades more effectively than over-the-counter products. Stains from coffee, tea, red wine, tobacco, and aging build up over time, dulling your smile. At Lava Dental, we offer both in-office and custom take-home whitening, supervised by our team for safe, even, and lasting results.

I just love Nova Dental and the service is world class. From the front to the back the are so nice. Venessa greets you with a smile and always ask how I am doing. Stephanie explains exactly what my insurance covers and help me schedule to get all my services done so I have 0 or minimum out of pocket. Ryan and Jackie the dental staff make sure I am comfort and let me know every step that the doctor will be doing. Taking X-ray, anesthesia, just all has been so good. Dr. Balai is truly the best. I had deep cleaning, crown put on and extraction. I didn't have any issues. I recommend Nova Dental for all your dental needs. I am looking forward to the New Year to complete my dental needs.

I had an amazing experience at Lava Dental! From the moment we arrived, the staff was incredibly kind, patient, and welcoming. They took the time to answer all of my questions and never made me feel rushed. I brought all of my children, and two of my children have special needs, so it means a lot to me when a dental office takes the time to understand their individual needs and makes them feel comfortable. Lava Dental did exactly that! They were patient, gentle, caring, and very detailed with each of my children. They treated every child with kindness and made sure they understood what was happening. I truly appreciate the time, patience, and compassion the entire team showed my family. They made what can sometimes be a stressful experience feel comfortable and positive. Thank you, Lava Dental, for taking such great care of my children and making us feel welcomed and valued. We truly appreciate you! ❤️🦷

I had a terrible tooth pain that was unbearable. I called many places and found Lava Dental on my browser. It was late in the day and they fit me in for a same day appointment. The staff were super friendly and listened to my concerns. I was seen immediately and explained in detail on what I had and the solutions. Dr. Ebrahimi was super gentle and fast. She's a true master of her profession. I was in and out quickly. I had a wisdom tooth removed; it was quick and, most importantly, painless. I want to thank Sylvia, Orlando, and Dr. Ebrahimi for their prompt assistance and warm hospitality. They were able to quickly provide a painless resolution to my problem. I would highly recommend this dental office.

Dr. Milad Balaei is truly one of the best dentists I've ever experienced. From the moment you walk in, you feel welcomed and comfortable. He is incredibly professional, patient, and detail-oriented, making sure everything is done perfectly and pain-free. He takes the time to explain every step, which builds so much trust and confidence. The results are always amazing, and you can tell he genuinely cares about his patients. If you're looking for a skilled, honest, and caring dentist, I highly recommend Dr. Balaei

So far, my experience with Lava Dental has been great. I arrived feeling nervous and anxious about my teeth, but the staff was incredibly welcoming and friendly, which immediately put me at ease. I had an extraction done, and the process was quick and far less unpleasant than I expected.
