When people meet you, what is one of the first things they notice? Studies show that it’s your smile. When you smile with ease, it portrays confidence and can have a positive impact on both your personal and professional relationships. If your teeth are discolored or not as bright as they used to be, you may be hiding your smile without even realizing it. This could be creating the wrong first impression. Staining or dulling of your teeth is quite common and happens naturally over time with age. However, lifestyle choices such as smoking, tobacco use, and the foods and beverages you consume also affect the brightness of your teeth. Teeth whitening can help correct these issues and restore your bright smile quickly and affordably.
Patients who have a big event coming up might require immediate results. Our in-office whitening can meet their needs with results that are many shades lighter after only one or two visits to our office. We use a highly-concentrated gel that is not available over-the-counter so you can get whiter teeth more quickly. We always protect your gums and often pair these treatments with fluoride to strengthen your teeth and prevent damage.
We also offer ready-to-use trays that provide reliable results in a cost-effective manner. These teeth whitening kits are not custom fitted to your smile, but they still provide safe and effective results. Since they are not molded for you specifically, they are a faster option than custom trays.
Tooth-colored materials require less removal of natural tooth structure compared to older methods, allowing for a conservative approach to treatment.
It’s true that there are lots of teeth whitening solutions that bombard you when you go to the grocery store. Why not choose one of these quick options? Consider these facts first when choosing your whitening system:
• Store bought products don’t have the same strength that professional whitening gels do. This means that you could be left with less than desirable results and end up paying for professional treatment anyway.
• Dr. Smith can create custom whitening systems that provide a better fit, which means improved safety.
• Whitening under the supervision of your dentist allows them to address any sensitivity or issues that may arise.
If you would like to learn more about how Smith Dentalworks can help you brighten your smile, give us a call. We’ll be happy to discuss your options with you so you can select the whitening treatment that best fits your lifestyle and budget.
