Teeth-Whitening

A Brighter, Younger Looking Smile

Some of the most noticeable blemishes that can affect your smile aren’t as preventable as chronic issues like tooth decay and gum disease. For example, the gradual staining and loss of vibrancy that can affect the appearance of your teeth can occur naturally as you age, even if you consistently keep your teeth healthy. Fortunately, such concerns can usually be addressed easily, even if they can’t be prevented. With professional cosmetic teeth-whitening, we can help you erase most common teeth stains and brighten your healthy, natural tooth structure to restore the youthful shine and confidence that your smile deserves.

Teeth-whitening your way

At our office, we strive to make improving your smile as convenient as we can, which is why we offer a choice of teeth-whitening options designed to fit comfortably into your schedule. If you need your teeth brightened in a hurry, then we can perform an in-office whitening treatment that only takes about an hour to complete. Or, if you prefer a more leisurely procedure, we can custom-design a set of whitening trays that you can take home and use to apply the bleaching agent to your teeth yourself. At-home whitening takes about 10 days complete, and only requires that you wear your whitening trays and the bleaching agent for 1-2 hours each day.

Keeping your smile bright

The fact that teeth can become stained and lose their luster naturally is a significant reason why customized professional teeth-whitening is so popular. Nevertheless, you can keep your smile brighter for longer following your treatment by taking special care to avoid stains as you care for your teeth every day. For example, if you must eat especially rich, dark foods, then be sure to brush your teeth or least rinse them with water after your meal. Also, be sure to brush and floss your teeth every day, without fail, to limit the amount of oral bacteria that can weaken your tooth enamel and make it more susceptible to staining.
