What are My Options for Professional Teeth Whitening Treatments?
Stained teeth can take the joy out of smiling. Fortunately, your smile doesn’t have to stay dull and discolored indefinitely. Drs. Chad Bodily and Ty Bodily can restore its beauty with professional teeth whitening. These FAQs compiled by your Burley, Idaho dentist from Seasons Dental explain more about teeth whitening and why dentist-recommended treatments are the best choice for you.
What causes stains on my teeth?
Age, poor oral hygiene, smoking, and certain foods and drinks are the main causes of stained teeth. Coffee, tea, red wine, tomato-based sauces, curries, and berries are common culprits for staining your teeth. Yellow teeth can also be the result of medication use.
Why should I choose a dentist who recommends teeth whitening treatment to brighten my smile?
If you want great whitening results, you’ll go with a whitening treatment recommended by your dentist. OTC products may be convenient but can take months to work and produce mediocre results. Some of these products even pose a risk to your tooth and gum health. In contrast, dentist-recommended treatments are safe and effective; in the case of in-office whitening, they produce instant results!
What are my options for professional teeth whitening?
Drs. Chad Bodily and Ty Bodily and our team offer in-office and at-home teeth whitening treatment using a customized whitening kit. Both use professional-grade peroxide gel to brighten your smile and come with dental supervision. In just one dental visit, our in-office treatment will give you a radiant smile. You can choose a whitening kit if you prefer to whiten your teeth gradually. We’ll customize your whitening trays for your treatment and provide detailed instructions on how to conduct your treatment. After two-week daily sessions, your goal of a whiter, brighter smile will be achieved.
Who’s a candidate for teeth whitening?
Good oral health is the main requirement for teeth whitening. Dental problems like decay or gum disease must be treated before teeth whitening. If you have stains that don’t respond well to teeth whitening, our dentists can recommend another cosmetic treatment, such as veneers or dental bonding, to restore your pearly whites’ appearance.
How long do the effects of teeth whitening last?
Teeth whitening doesn’t last forever, but with good oral care, your smile can retain its radiance for one to two years. Good oral hygiene is key to keeping your teeth bright and beautiful long-term. We also recommend scheduling routine cleanings to remove plaque and surface stains that can dull your smile prematurely. Limiting your consumption of stain-causing foods and drinks will help extend the lifespan of your treatment.
Is teeth whitening safe?
Yes! Working with an experienced teeth whitening dentist like our dentists can get optimal whitening results with minimal risk of harm to your gums or teeth.
