Teeth Whitening
Smoking, eating colored food, taking certain medications as tetraciclines, consumption of beverages like tea, coffee or soda can stain your teeth, deducting beauty and radiance to your smile. However, it is easy to restore and improve the color of teeth through whitening, which is perhaps one of the most popular techniques of cosmetic dentistry.
Dental whitening has evolved greatly in recent decades. There are several methods of teeth whitening and all are completely safe and painless. If it’s done by a professional, it will not cause wear from erosion or tooth enamel, also, it doesn’t weaken the enamel structure. Dental whitening done at home with on-the-counter solutions are not as effective as whitening done by dentists and can cause gum irritation and hypersensitivity.
Intrinsic Stains
Intrinsic stains cannot be removed by a teeth whitening, porcelain veneers is the gold standar for removing those stains
Your teeth are susceptible to two kinds of stains: intrinsic and extrinsic.
Intrinsic stains occur when the inner structure of the tooth, the dentin, becomes discolored due to genetic factors, trauma, or certain medications.
Extrinsic, or outer stains, can be caused by certain types of food and beverages, such as coffee, tea, berries, and red wine. Smoking can also cause extrinsic stains. Our teeth whitening solution can effectively treat extrinsic stains, brightening your smile by up to eight shades in a one-hour office visit.
For patients who want to undergo treatment in the comfort of their own home, we also offer take-home teeth whitening kits. Every patient's treatment timeline varies, but most can effectively and reliably brighten their teeth at home in about two weeks.
Candidates:
During your consultation at Dentalite, a dental hygienist will examine your teeth to check for signs of dental decay or disease, before proceeding with your whitening treatment.
Since these treatments target only extrinsic stains, patients with intrinsic stains may consider other cosmetic dentistry options such as porcelain veneers, dental crowns, or LUMINEERS to conceal discoloration.
