subject: How A Teeth Whitening Procedure Can Give You A Bright Smile To Be Proud Of [print this page]


Are your teeth stained or discolored? If so, you may want to consider talking to your Orlando dentist about teeth whitening. Over the years, teeth whitening has become more and more effective at brightening patients smiles. And with a variety of different whitening options available to fit almost any budget, there is a whitening procedure for you if you seek it out.

In-Office Whitening

The quickest and most effective method for whitening your teeth is to have your Orlando dentist perform the procedure in a single quick appointment in his or her office. To do this, he or she will begin the procedure by evenly applying a layer of whitening gel to the front of your teeth. After doing this, a special light or laser will be shone onto the front of your teeth. This will activate the hydrogen peroxide in the gel, which is the ingredient that will physically change the coloring of your teeth. After this is finished, your dentist will repeat the process several times to maximize the amount of whitening you will receive. After this, your teeth will have become significantly whiter and you will be free to leave the practice and start fully enjoying your new and improved smile.

Take Home Whitening

If you do not want to spend the money on an in-office procedure, your dentist can provide you with a customized take-home whitening kit. To do this, he or she will begin by taking a detailed impression of your teeth in order to create a set of whitening trays that will fit in perfectly to your teeth. When you have the trays at home, you will fill them with whitening gel and wear them on your teeth for approximately one hour. After doing this every day for around two weeks, your teeth will have become much whiter. Although a take-home whitening kit will take longer than an in-office procedure, it is generally is a less expensive option.

Over The Counter Whitening

There are also a variety of over the counter whitening products available to you. Whitening strips, gels and toothpastes are easily found at most drug stores. Although these products are easy to find, they generally do not offer the same level of results as a dentist-approved method. This is because they do not have the same amount of hydrogen peroxide and are not specifically designed for your teeth. However, if you are looking only for some moderate whitening or do not want to spend a great deal of money, an over the counter whitening product may be a good choice for you.

To learn more about teeth whitening or to schedule an appointment, contact your dentist in Orlando as soon as you can. He or she will be able to help you.
