What
is Teeth Whitening?
Teeth Whitening is actually a mild bleaching process that
restores stained or discolored teeth
to a healthy, natural color. Don't be misled by unproven and
ineffective over-the-counter whitening solutions. Our office
uses an advanced procedure that is only available from your
dentist.
What Causes Tooth Discoloration?
Teeth become discolored for different reasons:
- Frequently drinking coffee, tea, or colas.
- Some antibiotics may darken developing teeth in children.
- Aging - The dentin underneath the enamel of a tooth gradually
darkens with age.
- Use of tobacco products.
- Accidents - If a tooth has
been traumatized, sometimes the nerve will gradually "die,"
and the tooth becomes dark.
- After Root Canal Therapy,
a tooth will generally darken.
Is Whitening Safe?
Whitening is very safe. We use a product that
has been proven safe when used under the direction of a dentist.
Is Whitening For Me?
Dr. Achikeh
will evaluate your teeth and smile to determine whether whitening
is right for you. In some cases a different cosmetic procedure
may better meet your expectations, but whitening is a safe,
fast and easy process that is effective for almost everyone!
