Tooth Whitening

Because having whiter teeth has now become the primary aesthetic concern of the majority of patients, there are a number of methods to whiten teeth. The most popular method is using a home tooth lightening system that will whiten teeth significantly. Since tooth lightening just works on natural tooth enamel, it is necessary to evaluate replacement of any old fillings, crowns, and so on. Replacement of any restorations will be done after bleaching so they will match the recently bleached teeth.

Most dentists utilize numerous techniques: custom made tray whitening, professional strength white strips, and in-office lightening.

The tray method involves having impressions taken, which the laboratory produces into custom vinyl trays. A carbamide peroxide gel is placed in these trays and the trays with gel are worn for about 30 minutes to a full hour. The entire procedure takes about a week of daily use. Three different strengths of gel may be used, however, the higher the strength, the higher the likelihood of reactions or tooth sensitivity. The tray technique is recommended for badly stained teeth, such as tetracycline staining, and it might take a number of months of use to see considerable color improvement.

Our in-office treatment is a really quick and practical bleaching process. The visit is around one hour consisting of both the preparation and treatment. Our clients like this treatment because it is so simple and quick!

Tooth whitening is not permanent. A touch-up may be needed once a year and more often if you smoke and/or drink coffee, tea, or wine. For upkeep of whitened teeth the trays ought to be used every couple of months.

Reasons For Tooth Whitening:

• Yellow, brown stained teeth.


• Normal wear of outer tooth layer.


• Florousis (excessive fluoridation throughout tooth development).


• Stained teeth due to medications (tetracycline, etc.).
