Teeth Whitening

Professional teeth whitening reverses the natural dulling and yellowing of the teeth due to aging, diet and other habits. Colas, coffees, cigarettes, teas and red wines all accumulate and form stains and discolorations. Childhood illnesses and certain medications can also have a dulling effect on teeth.

If there is one thing about your smile that you would change, what would it be? According to the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, the most common answer to this question is, “Whiter and brighter.” It should come as little surprise that dentists find teeth whitening is in demand. Although strips, gels and pastes are in the drug store and supermarket, for safe and reliable teeth whitening products and results it is always recommended that you consult with a dental professional.
The advantages of seeking professional whitening services are:

• Dentists and orthodontists can provide patients with the benefits of “power” gels that contain the highest levels of hydrogen peroxide available
• The results of a professional teeth whitening treatment can usually be achieved in a single visit
• Dental professionals can provide patients with customized trays for optimal fit and optimal results
• Whitening trays provided by dental professionals can be adjusted to concentrate the lightening process on individual teeth

In our practice, we provide both an in-office teeth whitening system and a home tooth lightening kit. Our in-office treatment is the Rembrandt Sapphire kit, which can lift and brighten your smile by up to 12 shades in a single hour – or 7 shades in a half an hour. The at-home, dentist-supervised lightening system that we offer is trèswhite™ by Opalescence®, which comes in two great flavors: Très bon mint and Très bon melon. The dental trays included in the trèswhite™ system are thin, they adapt to your teeth, and they are disposable.

With so many options and products available today from generic store brands to major national brands, you may wonder which products are actually reliable and worth the expense. The truth is, if you are seeking guaranteed results, you must seek the advice and treatment of a professional.

A very big misconception with many consumers is that over the counter whitening kits and systems are safe for continuous use because they are always available. And they are also under the misguided belief that they will somehow be able to achieve the pearly, super-white brightness that they see from the mouths of celebrities on magazine covers, in movies and on television. The reality is that celebrities don’t count on over the counter teeth whitening products for the guaranteed, professional level of whiteness that they achieve with their teeth.

Consumers seeking to achieve professional results with repeated, long-term abuse of over the counter whitening systems wind up damaging the enamel and actually exposing their teeth to the very discolorations they were trying to eliminate. Don’t take chances with your teeth or dental health. Seek the advice of a professional before pursuing your brighter smile.
