If your teeth are not as white as you would like them to be, you are not alone. Many of our favorite foods and beverages that we consume every day have compounds in them that can stain your pearly whites. The yellowing of your teeth over time is a normal and natural process, but we understand it can affect your confidence. Your Dallas, TX dental team can help lift these stains and brighten your smile. In our blog today, we’re here to talk about our convenient and effective professional whitening treatment.
Avoid Over-The-Counter Products
Purchasing over-the-counter whitening toothpaste or kits at your local store can appear to be a convenient and easy way to achieve your goals. However, the ingredients within these products can be harsh and may not be as effective. As a result, you could damage your teeth and will not reach the bright shade of smile that you want. Instead of wasting time and money on these products, schedule a consultation with your dentist to discuss possible cosmetic options. We can help you discover a treatment that is just as convenient as store-bought kits but safer and more convenient.
Start With A Consultation
Before you can begin with any cosmetic treatment, you will need a consultation with your dentist. During this visit, your dentist will carefully examine your teeth and gums to ensure they are in excellent health. This step is important because cosmetic treatments can improve your smile’s appearance, but they cannot restore damage done to your teeth or gums. If you have cavities, these will need to be filled before your teeth can be whitened. For patients experiencing several concerns they would like to improve, your dentist may recommend alternative treatments. For instance, your dentist might recommend porcelain veneers if your concerns extend beyond simple discoloration. A professional whitening treatment can help lift stains on the surface, but intrinsic blemishes and other imperfections should be concealed with other treatments.
Whiter Teeth in Two Sessions
Your professional treatment will take visits. When you come in for your first visit, we will take impressions of your teeth to create the clear trays you will wear during your whitening treatment. At the next appointment, you will try on your trays before taking them home. You will wear your trays every day for about thirty minutes at a time as instructed by your dentist. The trays and bleaching agent will help break down the stains on your teeth and whiten your smile. In just a few days, you can show off your new smile.
