Who Is a Good Candidate for Teeth Whitening?
You might be a good candidate for teeth whitening if:
- You dislike the color of your teeth. Professional teeth whitening products can tackle extrinsic (on the surface of the enamel) and some types of intrinsic (inside the enamel) stains.
- Your teeth are healthy enough for whitening. V and our team will verify this before moving forward with your treatment.
- You want to feel more confident. Many patients find that they have a new spring in their step after getting their teeth whitened.
How Does Teeth Whitening Work?
Teeth whitening products use an active ingredient, usually a type of peroxide, to penetrate the tooth enamel and break up pigment molecules. Our practice uses KoR products, which can contain different types of peroxide depending on the details of a teeth whitening plan. They are also designed to keep sensitivity to a bare minimum. We offer both in-office and take-home whitening options:
Take-Home Teeth Whitening
With take-home teeth whitening, you apply the special airtight teeth whitening trays to your teeth for a specified period of time each day. You might start to notice results after a few days, but a full course of whitening may take about two weeks. This option is convenient for anyone who wants to brighten their smile in the comfort of their own home.
In-Office Teeth Whitening
In-office teeth whitening is the fastest way to achieve a brighter smile! We will apply the special KoR gel to your teeth, and within just one hour or so, your teeth may become several shades lighter. This option is great for people who wish to whiten their teeth before an upcoming big event, like a job interview or wedding.
Tips for Maintaining Your Brighter Smile
The results of teeth whitening do not last forever. However, you can extend your smile’s new beauty by taking some simple steps:
- Brush twice a day and floss once a day to remove surface stains and plaque.
- Reduce your intake of coffee, tea, red wine, and dark soda, all of which which can discolor your teeth over time.
- Eat crunchy fruits and white dairy products to strengthen enamel and maintain brightness.
- Schedule regular dental cleanings every six months for professional upkeep.
- Use a straw for dark beverages to minimize contact with your teeth.
- Receive touch-up whitening treatments as needed.
- Rinse your mouth after meals to wash away stain-causing particles.
- Do not smoke or chew tobacco.
