Am I a Good Candidate for Teeth Whitening?

Teeth whitening is used to improve the appearance of your teeth in terms of color—and whether you’re struggling with severe discoloration or minor staining, you’re likely a good candidate for the treatment! After visiting us for an initial consultation to discuss your desired results, we’ll be able to determine the severity of your discoloration. However, we must also ensure that your teeth and gums are fit for treatment. But if there’s some type of oral health issue that might prevent you from receiving treatment immediately, don’t panic—we can easily administer the appropriate care before proceeding to enhance your pearly whites!

What’s the Difference Between Professional and Store-Bought Teeth Whitening?

Many patients struggling with stubborn staining often wonder why they simply can’t just use store-bought kits to brighten their smiles. While these products are often marketed as reliable and cost-effective, they consistently fail to meet the mark due to their diluted whitening solutions and one-size-fits-all applicators. Some patients even report worsened results after turning to these products! However, professional alternatives are extremely safe, effective, and tailored to your smile goals. In fact, in-office whitening treatments can brighten your teeth by up to eight shades in a single visit!

Does Teeth Whitening Hurt?

Unsurprisingly, one common concern about dental work of any type is pain—but when it comes to teeth whitening, that isn’t something you need to worry about. Professional teeth whitening is customized to each patient’s specific dental needs, meaning that the chance of you experiencing discomfort or sensitivity is very unlikely! If your teeth are naturally prone to sensitivity, you shouldn’t hesitate to let us know; we can determine the next best steps to make your treatment as comfortable as possible, including specialty toothpastes that reduce sensitivity, spacing out your appointments, and more.

How Can I Make My Teeth Whitening Results Last?

While teeth whitening can offer impressive results that last anywhere from a few months to a few years, it all depends on your willingness to care properly for your new smile! Here are some tips to ensure that your results last for as long as possible:

  • Brush your teeth twice a day using a soft-bristled toothbrush.
  • Don’t skip flossing; it’s just as important as brushing.
  • Be mindful of your consumption of items known to stain teeth, including drinks like coffee, tea, soda, red wine, and more.
  • Avoid poor oral habits like smoking and using tobacco.
  • Schedule regular preventive care at least twice a year.
