Who Is a Good Candidate for Teeth Whitening?
Teeth whitening can be a great option for almost anyone who dislikes the color of their teeth. For example, you may choose it if:
- You have intrinsic or extrinsic stains. Teeth whitening is effective for most types of extrinsic stains (on the surface of the enamel) and certain types of intrinsic (inside the enamel) stains.
- Your teeth are healthy enough for cosmetic services. Our team will examine your mouth to make sure teeth whitening is a good choice for you.
How Does Teeth Whitening Work?
Teeth whitening uses powerful bleaching agents, usually hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide, to penetrate the tooth enamel and break up pigment molecules. This approach, when used properly, is safe for the teeth and very effective for getting rid of stains.
In our practice, we offer two types of teeth whitening. We can help you decide which one is right for you based on your circumstances and preferences.
Take-Home Teeth Whitening
If you are prone to dental sensitivity or simply want to whiten your teeth in the comfort of your own home, we may recommend that you use a custom professional whitening kit. All you have to do is apply the whitening product each day for a specified period of time. Your teeth may appear brighter after just a few days, but full effects usually take about two weeks.
In-Office Teeth Whitening
If you want to reach your cosmetic goals as quickly as possible, we may point you toward an in-office whitening treatment. Our team will apply a highly concentrated formula to your teeth, and within just one hour or so, your teeth should be significantly brighter.
Tips for Maintaining Your Brighter Smile
The results of teeth whitening may last anywhere from several months to a few years. You can keep your smile as bright as possible by applying some simple tips:
- Stick to a thorough oral hygiene routine.
- Attend regular dental cleanings and checkups.
- Reduce your intake of highly pigmented foods and beverages. In the days immediately following a teeth whitening treatment, we may advise you to stick to a “white diet.”
- Eat nutritious foods that will support your oral health, such as vegetables and calcium-rich items.
- Periodically visit us for teeth whitening touch-ups.
