Who Is a Good Candidate for Teeth Whitening?
You might be a good candidate for teeth whitening if:
- You have intrinsic (in the enamel) or extrinsic (on the surface of the enamel) dental stains.
- You are dissatisfied with the color of your smile.
- You are looking for an easy and convenient way to feel more confident in your appearance.
During your cosmetic consultation, our team will examine your teeth to make sure that your oral health is good enough for you to undergo teeth whitening.
How Does Take-Home Teeth Whitening Work?
There are two major components that we will provide you with — a special, custom-made tray that fits comfortably over your teeth, and a supply of prescription-strength whitening gel. All you have to do is to fill the tray with the gel and follow our instructions for how long to wear it each day. On average, this process takes about two weeks to complete, though you may start to notice a brighter smile after just a few days.
Tips for Maintaining Your Brighter Smile
Teeth whitening may last for anywhere from a few months to a few years. Here are some tips to keep your smile shining brightly for as long as possible:
- Do not smoke or chew tobacco.
- Limit your consumption of highly pigmented foods and beverages, such as coffee, tea, and berries.
- Eat white dairy products to keep your teeth strong.
- Keep up with a thorough oral hygiene routine. You can use whitening toothpaste to reduce new surface stains.
- Attend regular dental checkups and cleanings.
- Perform touch-up whitening when necessary.
