Who is a Good Candidate for Teeth Whitening?
Knowing whether you are a good candidate for teeth whitening requires meeting with your cosmetic dentist for a scheduled consultation. During this visit, we will go over the various reasons tooth stains occur, such as genetics, the consumption of dark-colored beverages and food, smoking, certain medications, and poor oral hygiene.
We’ll also discuss your oral and overall health history to determine what might be the cause of your discolored smile. After identifying the type of staining you have (i.e., intrinsic, extrinsic, or age-related), we’ll formulate a plan based on your preference (i.e., in-office or take-home whitening) and budget.
How Does Teeth Whitening Work?
While meeting with one of our skilled dentists, you will learn how in-office and take-home whitening works. This will help you decide which option you want to pursue as you work toward a brighter smile.
Take-Home Teeth Whitening
When choosing to rid your stains from the comfort of your home, we can provide you with a take-home whitening kit that contains customized trays and professional-grade bleaching gel. We’ll provide specific instructions for you to follow so that your teeth receive the maximum exposure, ensuring the whitening agent penetrates and removes unsightly stains. After two short weeks of wear, you should see a dramatic difference in your smile.
In-Office Teeth Whitening
If you prefer to let a member of our Radiant Dental team handle your whitening process, we will prepare your mouth so that your gums remain protected. We’ll apply the bleaching gel to your teeth so that the active ingredients target stains on and below the surface. Within about one hour, you should expect your teeth to appear whiter and brighter than before.
Tips for Maintaining Your Brighter Smile
To ensure that your brighter smile stays a more vibrant color, you’ll need to make sure that you’re following a few distinct guidelines, such as:
- Avoiding as many stain-causing foods and beverages as possible
- Using a straw to reduce the risk of exposure when consuming darkly pigmented drinks
- Keeping up with your daily oral hygiene routine
- Continuing to see your dentist every six months for regular dental checkups and cleanings
- Seeking touch-ups when you begin to notice that your teeth appear duller than before
- Giving up unhealthy habits, like smoking, eating ice, and biting your fingernails
