You may notice that your teeth have become dull, stained or discolored over time. We can help! Dr. Jim Const provides professional teeth whitening to brighten your teeth and help you regain your beautiful smile.
Many individuals who desire a brighter and whiter smile can benefit from teeth whitening. This procedure effectively addresses staining and discoloration stemming from various factors, including:
- The natural aging process
- Poor dental hygiene habits
- Consumption of certain foods and beverages (such as tea, coffee, wine and soda)
- Smoking and other tobacco use
- Illness
- Certain medications
- Fluorosis
Teeth whitening is a straightforward and effective cosmetic dental procedure aimed at enhancing your smile’s appearance quickly. This treatment involves the application of a potent yet safe whitening gel onto the tooth’s surface. The primary goal is to reduce the visibility of stains, discoloration and yellowing on the enamel. Teeth whitening options typically come in two forms: in-office and take-home systems. Both methods can deliver remarkable results, which can significantly boost your self-confidence and make you feel more comfortable sharing your smile.
In-Office Teeth Whitening
Both in-office and take-home whitening rely on the use of a powerful whitening gel. If you receive in-office whitening, this gel is applied to the surface of your teeth and then activated using a special light. When you leave our office, your smile will be noticeably whiter. In-office whitening can usually be completed in about an hour.
Take-Home Teeth Whitening
If you receive take-home whitening, our dentist will provide you with custom trays. You will place the whitening gel into these trays and wear them as directed, and over a period of several weeks your teeth will gradually lighten until you have achieved your desired shade of white. One of the great benefits of this type of whitening is that you can wear your whitening trays on your own schedule and in the comfort of your own home.
Dr. Const will collaborate with you to determine the most suitable treatment type and duration required to achieve your desired smile aesthetics.
