Teeth Whitening

Most people who consume products that are acidic, caffeinated, or sweet will tell you that staining is a daily concern, which is why teeth whitening is an ideal solution for discoloration. Over time, the staining becomes darker and more noticeable, even when patients practice regular cleaning and care.  People who have white teeth feel good about themselves and gladly smile to show others just how beautiful they are.

Teeth Whitening Q & A

What causes discoloration?

Your teeth will become discolored for a variety of reasons. Some of the most probable contributors include:

  • Red wine, soda, tea, or coffee: Long-term usage of sugared and caffeinated drinks are a primary concern as they cause discoloration from daily use.
  • Smoking: Nicotine use over an extended period often causes a yellow discoloration.
  • Aging: Teeth over time age. Experiencing a change in the color of teeth is natural.
  • Medications: Some medications like antibiotics will cause your teeth to darken.
  • Improper oral hygiene: Oral hygiene is a significant contributor to yellowing of teeth. Proper brushing and maintenance help to remove plaque and debris that builds up over time.

Can I substitute teeth whitening with a store bought product?

In today’s market, there are plenty of products at your local store that whitens teeth. If you have ever used them,  you know they do not efficiently remove discoloration. You probably have also experienced harsh chemicals that have damaged your teeth’s enamel. These products are not recommended because you will eventually have to correct the damage these products created.

What dental procedures are available?

Our dental clinic provides a choice of whitening services including Zoom and KöR. The process is simple, convenient, and affordable. After an exam to confirm you are a prime candidate for whitening, we will either provide the treatment in the office or create a mold which you will use with our specialized whitening gel based on recommendations.

Dentists perform the Zoom whitening procedure in-office which will enhance teeth by as much as eight shades. Because the dental patient has opted for in-office whitening services, dentists can use stronger ingredients. Zoom provides two different options for services.
