Who is a Good Candidate for Teeth Whitening?
Potentially anyone who isn’t happy with the color of their teeth can benefit from whitening them, but that doesn’t mean it’s the best treatment for everyone’s unique circumstances. Before you can proceed with this elective procedure, you must consult with one of our dentists to ensure you’re a good candidate. For example, if you have cavities or gum disease, we’ll work with you to address those concerns before proceeding. Also, if your blemishes exist in the lower layers of your teeth, you might not be able to treat them topically. In these cases, we might suggest veneers or another appropriate cosmetic solution.
How Does Teeth Whitening Work?
Although there are many commercially available products that claim to brighten your grin, they often contain ingredients that can cause tooth sensitivity. Plus, they use one-size-fits-all strips and trays that don’t always give you the desired results.
Our team has access to professional-grade gels that are made to minimize any potential discomfort while delivering optimal outcomes. We offer both take-home kits as well as in-office services; a brief description of each is outlined below:
Take-Home Teeth Whitening
In addition to using top-quality whitening agents, we will also supply you with custom-fitted trays so that you can get ideal results from the comfort of your own home. You’ll have a dazzlingly bright smile to show for your efforts in as few as 2 weeks.
In-Office Teeth Whitening
If you’re eager for instant results, you might do better with an in-office treatment. During this hour-long procedure, we’ll apply ultra-strength gel and then speed up the whitening process with a special light. You’ll leave our office with a sparkling grin that’s ready for any occasion!
Tips for Maintaining Your Brighter Smile
Once you’ve invested in upgrading your appearance, it’s natural to want to do everything you can to preserve your teeth’s new hue. The results of professional teeth whitening can last anywhere from 6 months to 3 years, though you can keep the results for longer with proper maintenance. You should brush and floss twice daily to remove plaque buildup that staining particles can cling to. Also, you may need occasional touch-ups to maintain your ideal shade.
