Overtime, you may notice your teeth becoming dull, stained or yellowed. This happens because various factors, including:
- The natural aging process
- Poor oral hygiene habits
- Consumption of certain foods and drinks (tea, wine, coffee and soda)
- Smoking and other tobacco use
- Illness
- Certain medications
- Fluorosis
Luckily, professional teeth whitening can quickly and effectively brighten your smile better than over-the-counter products. Teeth whitening treatments use a power yet safe whitening gel to break up and lighten the appearance of stains, yellowing and discoloration on the tooth enamel, giving you a more beautiful smile. Teeth whitening is available in-office we all as a take-home treatment.
In-office teeth whitening typically only requires a one-hour appointment. During treatment, a special whitening gel is applied to the surface of your teeth and activated with a special light, giving you a noticeable whiter, brighter and more beautiful smile. Take-home whitening utilizes custom whitening trays and special whitening gel. Our dentist and team will provide you with instructions on how to wear them. As you wear the trays over several weeks, your teeth will become whiter and less stained.
