Who Is a Good Candidate for Teeth Whitening?

Teeth whitening is a great option for almost anyone who is looking to address dental discoloration. The formulas that we use are effective on extrinsic (on the surface of the enamel) and intrinsic (inside the enamel) stains. During your consultation, we will verify that your specific type of staining will respond well to whitening. We will also make sure that your teeth are healthy enough to undergo a whitening treatment.
How Does Teeth Whitening Work?

The active ingredient in teeth whitening formulas is usually a type of peroxide, which penetrates the enamel and breaks up pigment molecules. There are many different brands of whitening products and application methods. However, they all use the same basic mechanisms.
In our office, we are pleased to offer both in-office whitening treatments and convenient take-home bleaching kits. Here is an overview of how each option works:
Take-Home Teeth Whitening

With take-home teeth whitening, we provide you with a prescription kit that includes a whitening formula and the trays you need to apply it to your teeth. Simply use the items as directed. Typically, this means you will have to use the whitening formula daily for about two weeks. You should start to notice a difference after a few days, but you should complete the full whitening course for optimum results.
In-Office Teeth Whitening

In-office whitening only takes about one hour. Our team will apply a highly concentrated bleaching gel to your teeth, and you get to relax while it works. This safe and effective method is great for those who want to whiten their teeth quickly for a special event. By the time you are finished, your teeth may be several shades brighter than when you entered our office!
Tips for Maintaining Your Brighter Smile

With proper care, the results of your whitening treatment might endure for months or even a few years. You can maintain your brighter smile by applying these tips:
- Stick to a thorough oral hygiene routine.
- Use whitening toothpaste to remove new surface stains.
- Reduce your consumption of highly pigmented foods and beverages.
- Consume dark liquids, such as coffee and red wine, through a straw.
- Do not smoke.
- Visit us for touch-up whitening services when necessary.
