Whitening is the safest and fastest way to improve the appearance of your smile. Teeth whitening procedures can brighten the appearance of your smile sometimes by as many as 5 to 10 shades in a single session. Depending on how fast you want your smile brightened, teeth whitening services can be performed in an office setting or prescribed for take-home use. Professional whitening treatments deliver faster, more effective results than over-the-counter teeth whitening treatments.
Facts about Tooth Whitening
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.
