What
is Teeth Whitening?
Teeth Whitening is actually a mild bleaching process
that restores stained or discolored
teeth to a healthy, natural color. Don't be misled
by unproven and ineffective over-the-counter whitening
solutions. Our office uses an advanced procedure that
is only available from your dentist.
What Causes Tooth Discoloration?
Teeth become discolored for different reasons:
- Frequently drinking coffee, tea, or colas.
- Some antibiotics may darken developing teeth in
children.
- Aging - The dentin underneath the enamel of a tooth
gradually darkens with age.
- Use of tobacco products.
- Accidents - If a tooth
has been traumatized, sometimes the nerve will gradually
"die," and the tooth becomes dark.
- After Root Canal Therapy,
a tooth will generally darken.
Is Whitening Safe?
Whitening is very safe. We use a product
that has been proven safe when used under the direction
of a dentist.
Is Whitening For Me?
Dr. Seasholtz
will evaluate your teeth and smile to determine whether whitening
is right for you. In some cases a different cosmetic procedure
may better meet your expectations, but whitening is a safe,
fast and easy process that is effective for almost everyone!
