Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is a popular way to change up your look without using dental restorations like porcelain veneers.
A walk around your store will show you the many different brands and styles of teeth whitening, but is it better to just get your teeth done professionally?
The best way to get reliable and immediate results is through professional whitening. Store brands all vary in efficacy, but without professional-grade gel, patients rarely see a significant improvement.
Schedule a Professional Teeth Whitening
There are many benefits to teeth whitening, but the best use of your time and money is having it done professionally. This is a good assurance that you won't accidentally drip gel onto your gums, or feel disappointed that after weeks of application, you barely have a lighter smile.
The best way to know if teeth whitening is the right treatment for you is by calling Uptown Comprehensive Dentistry and Prosthodontics. Dr. John Chen will go over your smile goals with you and determine the perfect shade.
Store brands don't have the strength that dental offices do to bleach your teeth and remove stains. Some brands can even cause damage to your precious enamel, doing far more harm than good.
Be safe; allow us to whiten your smile without worry.
Do your teeth look stained or discolored? Are there any visible yellow, brown, or white spots? Professional teeth whitening can help!
Reasons for Tooth Stains
Teeth can become discolored or stained for various reasons, such as:
- Food and drinks (e.g., red wine, tea)
- Smoking or using tobacco products
- Excessive fluoride use
- Genetics
- Natural aging
- Poor dental hygiene
- Disease
- Medications
- Dental materials (e.g., silver fillings)
- Trauma
Teeth Whitening Options in Aurora, CO
Professional teeth whitening can remove stains and improve the appearance of discoloration.
In-Office Teeth Whitening
Our chairside teeth whitening involves the dentist applying bleaching gel on the surfaces of the teeth. The safe and gentle bleaching gel sits on the teeth and penetrates the enamel to remove stain-causing molecules. We then finish the treatment by polishing your teeth. Many patients find their teeth are lighter by several shades in a single appointment.
Customized Whitening Trays
We offer customized whitening trays for patients to remove stains from their teeth at home. Unlike store-bought options, whitening trays comfortably fit your unique smile’s shape and provide thorough and even results.
If your teeth are resistant to professional teeth whitening, your dentist can provide you with dental veneers, cosmetic bonding, or dental crowns.
Please get in touch with us today to schedule your teeth whitening consultation with Dr. John Chen.
