Could Professional Teeth Whitening Make Your Smile Shine?
If your primary or only cause of concern is simply staining or discoloration, then professional teeth whitening might be ideal for you. Professional whitening offers faster and more effective results than most over-the-counter whitening options. In many cases, professional teeth whitening can lighten teeth by eight or more shades, often in as little as a single office visit, or two weeks of at-home treatment.
Plus, professional treatment comes with the added expertise of a cosmetic dentist, who can help ensure your smile is ready for treatment.
Keep in mind that cosmetic dental treatments are best performed if your smile is already healthy and your teeth clean. If it has been more than six months since your last dental checkup and cleaning, it is best to first schedule a routine preventive dental visit, before embarking on a smile makeover. That is because plaque buildup can cause the teeth to look discolored, and untreated cavities can make even a simple whitening procedure uncomfortable or even painful.
