Quick Facts
Essential information about this procedure
“Over-the-counter products cannot achieve the same results as a professional in-office treatment — and the difference is something you'll see the same day.”
Why Professional Whitening Outperforms the Drugstore
If you've tried whitening strips or trays from the drugstore, you already know the frustration — uneven results, sensitivity that lingers for days, or shades that barely budge no matter how long you leave them on.
GLO (Guided Light Optics) is different because it's engineered for in-office use. The patented mouthpiece combines warming heat and light technology with a high-concentration whitening gel that over-the-counter products simply aren't formulated to match. That's not marketing — it's chemistry.
At Brilliant Smiles of North Brunswick, Dr. Deshpande begins every whitening appointment with a personalized consultation. She'll assess your current shade, discuss your goals, and confirm GLO is the right fit for your smile before a single drop of gel is applied. Comfort comes first, and the protocol is adjusted to minimize sensitivity throughout.
Because your results are meant to last, every in-office treatment includes a complimentary at-home care kit — your GLO mouthpiece, a professional shades guide, and whitening vials formulated for periodic maintenance. You leave with everything you need to protect your investment, not just a brighter smile for the weekend.

“I just had a terrific experience at Brilliant Smiles of North Brunswick. I was taken back right on time and had Michelle as my hygienist. She was kind and gentle, thorough and knowledgeable. I highly recommend seeing Michelle at Brilliant Smiles.”
“I would highly recommend Dr. Sonal Deshpande. For years I struggled with exhausting, restless sleep and Dr. Sonal took the time to listen, recognized the signs of sleep apnea, and guided me through getting a proper diagnosis. Instead of jumping straight to a CPAP machine, they fitted me with a custom oral appliance that’s comfortable and easy to use. The difference has been incredible. I’m sleeping through the night, waking up refreshed, and have more energy during the day than I’ve had in years. The whole team at Brilliant Smiles was professional, friendly, and patient in answering every question. They clearly care about their patients’ overall health, not just their teeth. If you suspect you have sleep apnea or just want a dentist who goes above and beyond, this is the place to go.”
“The staff is completely amazing ! I have been visiting Brilliant Smiles of North Brunswick since January 2026 and I have nothing but wonderful things to say about the staff. They always make me feel welcome and super sweet !”

Learn moreCommon Questions About GLO Whitening
Is GLO whitening going to make my teeth super sensitive? I've had bad experiences with strips before.
Sensitivity is one of the most common concerns we hear, and it's completely valid. GLO uses a gentle, controlled light-and-heat technology that's specifically designed to minimize sensitivity compared to many other whitening methods. Dr. Deshpande reviews your dental history before treatment so she can tailor the approach to your comfort level.
Why should I pay for professional whitening when I can just buy strips at the drugstore?
Over-the-counter strips work on the surface — GLO whitening penetrates deeper to lift stains that strips simply can't reach, delivering noticeably brighter results in a single appointment. You're also getting a treatment supervised by Dr. Deshpande, which means a safer, more even result without the guesswork. Most patients see a difference of several shades in just one visit.
How long will my results actually last? I don't want to spend money on something that fades in a month.
With proper care — regular brushing, routine cleanings, and limiting staining foods and drinks — GLO whitening results typically last 12 months or longer. We'll also send you home with guidance on how to maintain your results between visits. Touch-up options are available to help you keep that brightness going over time.
I don't have a regular relationship with Brilliant Smiles yet — is it okay to come in just for whitening?
Absolutely — new patients are always welcome, and GLO whitening is a great way to get to know us. Dr. Deshpande takes the time to make sure every patient feels comfortable and informed before any treatment begins. Many patients who come in for whitening end up making us their dental home for everything else too.
Could I just get this done at a whitening kiosk at the mall for less money? What's the difference?
Whitening kiosks typically use unregulated, one-size-fits-all trays without any dental oversight — which can lead to uneven results or even damage to your gums. At Brilliant Smiles, Dr. Deshpande performs a quick evaluation beforehand to make sure whitening is the right fit for your smile and that it's done safely. The difference in quality, safety, and results is significant.
A whitening treatment should feel like a fresh start, not a gamble — that's why I take the time to understand your smile before we begin, so the results match what you're actually hoping for.
