Teeth Whitening
Erase Years of Stains and Boost Your Confidence
Brighten Your Smile with Professional Teeth Whitening
Even with proper dental hygiene practices, our teeth can become discolored over time. Life choices, including drinking dark beverages, richly colored foods, and smoking, can all lead to the enamel becoming discolored. While a range of over-the-counter treatments is available, they are only appropriate for minor staining. Rentschler and Rhee Dentistry provides professional whitening services to restore that pearly shine to your smile.
Did you know?
That the teeth naturally darken as we age? Furthermore, certain foods, beverages, medications and habits can contribute to a darker, yellowed, or stained smile. However, it is possible to erase years of stains in a single professional whitening session and sustain those results for many years with proper maintenance. According to the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, professional whitening is best maintained by a combination of good oral care and take-home whitening treatments as recommended by your dentist.
Experience The Benefits Of Dental Whitening
The foundation of the majority of dental whitening treatments involves the use of a peroxide solution. This solution helps break up the proteins that cause the enamel to become stained. When used with professional guidance, it can provide significant lightening of the shade of the enamel. At Dentistry Done Right, our dental whitening solution is enhanced by using a special light that amplifies the action of the peroxide solution.
The first step in addressing dental staining involves an assessment of the stain itself. Its location and severity will be central to determining the proper treatment approach.
The three common forms of dental staining include:
- Extrinsic Stains – These stains form on the exterior enamel, typically within that enamel. They’re easier to remove than other forms of stain. They’re usually the result of smoking, foods, or dark wines and beers.
- Intrinsic Stains – Just under the outer layer of enamel can be found dentin, a porous layer of the tooth. When a stain forms within this material, it’s impossible to remove it with a peroxide treatment. While OTC stain removers can work for extrinsic stains, they are ineffective against intrinsic stains.
- Age-Related Staining – Dental staining is a natural part of the aging process. It often results from pulp within our teeth dying, a lack of Vitamin D, or calcium deficiency. Addressing this kind of stain requires the use of veneers or dental bonding.
Dentistry Done Right’s professional dental whitening services use high-concentration peroxide solutions. Using these solutions, we can address more severe staining than possible with over-the-counter approaches. When these approaches are insufficient for addressing dental staining, we provide veneers and dental bonding options.
Over-the-counter dental whitening can be effective when addressing minor whitening. However, there are risks associated with the overuse of these products when trying to eliminate deeper stains. You may damage your teeth and enamel, causing dental sensitivity. While the solutions used at Dentistry Done Right are more potent than OTC options, they’re safe when used under the guidance of our team.
