Your smile is one of the first things people always notice about you. Are you a smoker? Do you drink coffee or soda pop? Has age done its job on your teeth and you’ve begun to notice a discoloration to the enamel of your teeth? Becoming self- conscience, have you started to grin with your mouth closed rather than smile without inhibition?

Teeth whitening is the quickest procedure that will help you remove yellow and browning of the enamel of your teeth and return them to the beautiful snowy white before the soda pop, the cigarettes, and other vices we have that cause our teeth to become discolored.

During the procedure, gums and lips are isolated with a protective material to prevent any potential damage to thesetissues. Results are visible immediately after the whitening process and vary from patient to another depending on the natural color of their teeth (yellow hued teeth will have the best results). Excellent oral hygiene practices and regular whitening maintenance as once a year will help you maintain your whiter smile. Teeth whitening might not be suitable for teeth with internal staining, discoloration from developmental conditions or that have been root canalled. And it is to be avoided by patients with hypersensitive teeth. Better treatment options such as veneers are available for such cases.
