The Factors Behind Your Stained Teeth
Why do our teeth end up with unsightly yellow and brown stains? For some, this could be due to tobacco use. Poor brushing and sling habits, and/or a diet high in sugar, could lead to plaque buildup that makes discoloration more visible. Drinks with dark pigments, such as coffee, soda, tea, and red wine could also discolor your teeth. As part of your treatment, we will examine your smile to assess the cause and severity of your discoloration, which allows us to choose the right treatment option. For many, we could offer smiles several shades brighter with our take-home teeth whitening kit.
Our At-Home Teeth Whitening Kit
You will first stop by our office just long enough for our team to take detailed images and impressions of your smile, which we use to create a set of custom plastic trays. These will fit snugly and comfortably over your teeth and ensure treatment with precision. You then return home with these trays and multiple plastic syringes of bleaching gel. At home, you will add the gel to the trays and wear them for a set amount of time, usually an hour or so. For stubborn stains, we may suggest overnight. The trays ensure the results will be even across our smile and prevents the gel from being diluted by saliva. The gel then breaks up and removes the teeth stains from the surfaces of your smile, and can even handle minor intrinsic stains, which discoloration is beneath the outer enamel. At the end of the process, your teeth could be eight shades brighter! You then keep the trays and any remaining gel should you need touch-ups in the months to come.
Keeping Teeth Bright
You could also take steps to ensure your new results last so you continue to enjoy brighter smiles in the months to come. For example, make time to brush and floss properly and try to cut back on tobacco products and sugar. Be sure you see our team for a professional dental cleaning every six months too. These actions help keep your smile bright and also fight the onset of issues like tooth decay and gum disease.
