Do you and your significant other have big plans this summer? Whether you will be lounging on exotic beaches, exploring the nation’s greatest parks, or simply tackling that ever-growing cache on your DVR, don’t you want your smiles to be ready for all that quality time spent together? If so, your cosmetic dentist can help prepare both your smiles for all the priceless photo-ops and the precious cuddle time, through professional teeth whitening. If you want to look your best this summer, as a couple, don’t delay a visit to the cosmetic dentist, who could have you both showing off dazzling pearly whites just in time for summer break!
When Is It Time To Opt for Professional Treatment?
You have likely noticed the abundance of products on the tooth care aisle at your local grocery store or pharmacy, many of which tout the ability to whiten your teeth. Unfortunately, not all of these products are effective at creating noticeable whitening.
If you have tried over-the-counter products in the past and been unhappy with the results, or if you are just looking for a faster and more efficient way to lighten your teeth, you may want to schedule whitening treatment with a cosmetic dentist. Professional treatment can generally lighten teeth by more than eight shades, and it can do so quickly and safely, often in two weeks or less!
How Long Will the Results Last?
The results of whitening treatment can often last for more than a year, with proper preventive care and some smart dietary choices. This means taking excellent care of your teeth through twice daily brushing and flossing, as well as regular dental cleanings (once every six months for most patients).
You should also limit the amount of staining foods and beverages you consume. Brush your teeth quickly after staining or sugary foods, and avoid tobacco products as well, to help prolong your lovely results!
