The bright, pearly smile of your younger years may not still be what you see when you look in the mirror. Over time, a variety of underlying factors may cause your smile to darken, appear yellow, or receive stains. Fortunately, a simple yet powerfully effective cosmetic treatment is at your disposal. When you are ready for a dramatically whiter smile, speak with us about professional teeth whitening. In the meantime, become familiar with the ins and outs of this treatment.
About Our Teeth Whitening System
We use Kor Whitening Deep Bleaching. This system combines both in-office and take-home whitening for a surprisingly dramatic improvement. First, you will administer bleaching gel into custom-fitted, comfortable dental trays once every night for two weeks. After this portion of your treatment is complete, you will visit us for an in-office treatment that requires approximately 60 to 90 minutes. The finished product will reveal a permanently whiter, brighter, natural-looking smile.
Your Concerns
Patients often voice a number of concerns when considering whitening their teeth with us. We encourage you to consider the following responses to some of our most frequently asked questions to help you make a final decision:
- Teeth whitening is typically recommended for patients 14 years of age and older
- You may enjoy a smile that becomes over 15 shades lighter
- Our whitening is formulated to protect your teeth against damage and sensitivity
- You will still be able to indulge in your favorite foods and drinks after your whitening, as long as you continue practicing good hygiene at home
Your Candidacy
Teeth whitening provides exceptional results for patients looking to brighten a natural smile. If the visible portion of your smile consists of one or more prosthetics, however, such as porcelain veneers or crowns, this treatment will not offer effective results. We encourage you to ask about alternative solutions for improving the beauty and sparkle of your smile.
