It’s normal for your teeth to yellow and darken over time, especially if you regularly drink coffee or red wine. If you’ve tried whitening your teeth at home, you may have been disappointed with your results. Professional teeth whitening at DMD Dental is the best way to brighten your smile and make a good first impression.
What is Teeth Whitening?
Professional teeth whitening is a way of reversing the effects of stains and yellowing of the enamel over time. It’s sometimes referred to as teeth “bleaching,” and is performed right in our comfortable office. Dr. Du Mond can help you achieve the right shade for your natural features so you feel more confident with your smile.
What are the Benefits of Teeth Whitening?
The biggest benefit of teeth whitening is that it can brighten your smile and reverse years of yellowing with a single treatment, making it a great cosmetic treatment ahead of a big event. It’s significantly more effective than at-home whitening kits, which typically don’t contain active ingredients in high enough concentrations to produce noticeable results, or trays fitted to the anatomy of your teeth. At-home kits also cause sensitivity when coming into contact with the gums – professional whitening takes steps to avoid this. In short, professional teeth whitening is the best, most effective way to get the brighter smile you want.
What Can I Expect From Teeth Whitening?
In-office whitening is an easy process. You’ll begin by meeting with Dr. Du Mond and discussing your goals for your smile so we can help you select the right shade. A professional-grade whitening gel will be carefully applied to your teeth, avoiding the gums and sensitive areas. This gel typically includes fluoride to strengthen and remineralize the enamel at the same time – and help reduce sensitivity.
The Teeth Whitening Process and Beyond
Along with your in-office treatment, you’ll be given an at-home kit to maintain your results. Our team will provide detailed instructions on how and when to use it, as well as lifestyle changes you can make to avoid stains and yellowing again. You can always return for additional in-office treatments, too!
