As time passes, our teeth absorb certain types of staining agents. These teeth stainers will turn your teeth yellow over some time. Some common culprits of teeth yellowing are tea, coffee, cola, and red wine. Also, tobacco use can contribute to yellowing as well. Aging is another factor too. As you get older, the enamel grows thinner and more transparent. They are resulting in the tooth showing the darker, inner layers.
Our In-Office Teeth Whitening
At Shodhan Dentistry, we provide effective whitening solutions. Our cosmetic dentist specializes in Zoom!® Teeth Whitening. It’s an in-Office Whitening System that takes about an hour to complete. Zoom Whitening will help you look better and feel better about the color of your teeth.
Our in-office whitening uses more potent cleaning agents compared to take-home kits. Over the counter and take-home kits need at least a few uses to produce whitening results. With Zoom, you will walk out the same day with a fantastic looking smile.
Who Is A Teeth Whitening Candidate?
In general, most patients are good candidates for Zoom whitening. If you have any of the following though, you may not qualify as a candidate for teeth whitening:- Age and pregnancy issues
- Sensitive teeth and allergies to products
- Gum disease
- Worn enamel
- Cavities
- Exposed roots
- Fillings
- Dental crowns
How Long Does The Whitening Last?
On average, expect your teeth whitening to last around six months, if you take good care of your teeth by following good daily hygiene. If you practice poor health and drink 5 cups of coffee a day, your whitening won’t make it to six months. Conversely, if you make small diet changes such as cutting out coffee or alcohol, your whitening can last more than six months.
Will Whitening Affect Veneers And Crowns?
Receiving whitening treatments is a conservative dental treatment. So there will be no harm if you have pre-existing dental restorations like crowns or veneers. Dental restorations consist of solid materials. The bleaching agents in teeth whitening won’t affect them.
Is Teeth Whitening Safe?
With it’s conservative nature, teeth whitening is very safe. A small percentage of patients might experience increased teeth sensitivity. To decrease the change of any harmful side effects, our dentist will conduct a thorough exam.
During your consultation with Dr. Shodhan, he will layout a treatment plan that’s best for you. One option can even be at-home teeth whitening. We know that every person has unique dentalThusds.
