Smile Brightly for Life’s Big Moments
Are Stains Affecting Your Confidence?
If you avoid photos because of discolored teeth or feel self-conscious during professional meetings, you’re not alone. Many Billings, MT families struggle with the same concerns, wondering if there’s a better solution than endless boxes of whitening strips that never quite deliver the results they promise. Over-the-counter teeth whitening products often fall short because they use weaker formulations that can’t penetrate stubborn stains effectively.
As a trusted cosmetic dentist serving Billings families, Shumway Family Dentistry understands that your smile affects how you feel about yourself every single day. Whether you’re preparing for a wedding, reunion, or simply want to feel more confident at work. Call (406) 248-7500 today to learn how we can help you achieve natural-looking results.


Teeth Whitening Can Feel Overwhelming
You deserve whitening treatment that’s both effective and comfortable. Most people don’t need a smile makeover. Unlike store-bought products that often cause gum irritation or uneven results, professional in-office whitening is carefully supervised to protect your oral health while delivering dramatic improvements. Our team takes extra care to shield your gums and soft tissues before applying professional-grade whitening solutions.
The entire process typically takes just one comfortable visit, and you’ll walk out with a smile that’s several shades brighter. No mess, no guesswork, and no uncomfortable trays to wear at home for weeks. Many patients are surprised by how gentle modern whitening treatments have become, with advanced formulations that work faster with less discomfort than ever before.
We Offer Proven Whitening Systems
Professional whitening systems have been refined through years of dental research and clinical testing. These aren’t experimental treatments, they’re time-tested solutions that deliver consistent, predictable results when administered by trained dental professionals. Dr. Shumway brings experience from the University of Detroit Mercy School of Dentistry and maintains active membership in the Academy of General Dentistry.
What sets professional whitening apart is the controlled concentration of whitening agents and precision of application. We customize treatment intensity based on your current tooth shade, sensitivity levels, and desired outcome. The goal isn’t to create an unnaturally bright smile, but rather to enhance your natural tooth color and remove years of accumulated staining.


White Teeth Brighten Your Smile
Imagine smiling freely in every photo without worrying about what your teeth look like. Picture yourself feeling more confident during job interviews, client meetings, or social gatherings around Billings. Professional whitening delivers more than just cosmetic improvement, it often changes how people carry themselves.
For many Montana families, whiter teeth become the foundation for even greater smile improvements. Some patients choose to combine whitening with porcelain veneers for a complete smile makeover, while others find that whitening alone gives them exactly the confidence boost they were seeking. Your results can last for months or even years with proper care and occasional touch-up treatments.
After Professional Dental Cleaning
The best time for professional whitening is right after a thorough dental cleaning. When surface plaque and tartar are removed first, whitening solutions can penetrate more effectively and deliver more dramatic results. This strategic timing ensures you get the maximum benefit from your whitening treatment.
Yellowstone County families trust our practice because we focus on overall oral health first, then help patients achieve their cosmetic goals. If we identify any cavities or gum concerns during your cleaning, we’ll address those before moving forward with whitening treatment. This comprehensive approach protects your investment in a brighter smile by building on a foundation of good oral health.
