Sometimes all it takes for a boost in confidence is a little smile enhancement. If you’ve been finding yourself concerned about how your smile looks, you can easily improve the appearance of your teeth in a variety of ways. At Arizona Smile Designers, we offer a variety of cosmetic dentistry options aimed at designing you the smile of your dreams. One of the simplest ways to see an immediate difference is through professional teeth whitening.
Teeth can become stained due to factors both within and outside of our control, ranging from that morning coffee habit to a matter of genetics. Because of that, not all whitening techniques are created equal. Let’s go over the most common whitening solutions along with the pros and cons of each.
For the most effective, timely results, scheduling a professional teeth whitening appointment in a dental office is the best bet. At Arizona Smile Designers, we use Philips Zoom Whitespeed to transform our patients’ smiles on the same day. In fact, this system can whiten teeth up to eight shades brighter within just 45 minutes. Imagine coming back from your lunch break with a whole new smile! An at-home whitening kit can be sent home to help maintain your new look.
If you’re looking for an immediate impact in the least amount of time, this is the way to go.
For a variation of professional whitening, another valuable option is to use an at-home professional whitening system, prescribed by the dentist. Arizona Smile Designers prescribes Philips Teeth Whitening kits, a take-home system that uses a custom-fitted tray to bring you results from the comfort of your home. An amorphous calcium phosphate accelerated by blue LED light technology will brighten your teeth on your own time.
While not as fast as an in-office whitening treatment, the take-home option still provides remarkable results in a timely manner at a more affordable price point. If you’re looking for professional whitening at a more flexible price point, this is your sweet spot.
Many people choose to whiten their teeth using an over-the-counter whitening kit. There are more options than ever available, from strips to toothpaste to gels that typically must be used daily over a length of time before seeing results. While these options can be effective for mild stains, they aren’t going to work well for more severe discoloration.
Over-the-counter teeth whitening kits are easy to find and come at a reasonable price point. For mild staining or maintenance, a store-bought option can bring decent results, but for the most effective, long-lasting results, they don’t hold up to professional options.
Once you’ve seen the difference teeth whitening can make, you’re going to want to maintain that. To keep your teeth looking their best, follow these guidelines:
