Whiter teeth

A small transformation such as changing the color of your teeth can improve your smile and appearance. Therefore, teeth whitening is the most requested dental procedure in America to keep a brighter smile.

 

Is teeth bleaching an ideal procedure for me?

Not all treatments are suitable for everyone. The best recommendation is to have a consultation with the best cosmetic dentists at Advanced Smiles Dentistry. Since only your dentist will be able to tell you if your gums and teeth are in good condition to go through a whitening process.

 

Can I bleach a dental crown or filling?

Any dental restoration will not respond to a whitening treatment. For example, a zirconia crown is crafted in a dental lab with a specific color that can only be change by redoing the crown.

For this reason, is important to have an open communication with your dentist about your dental goals.

 

Methods to whiten your teeth in Advanced Smiles Dentistry

 

  • In-office whitening

    The certified dentists at the best dental clinic use Opalescence professional in office teeth whitening to give a faster white smile! Important to realize that this dental procedure is chemically activated with LED lights (not ZOOM whitening). You’ll have a brighter smile in less than 60 minutes.

 

  • Home kit

On the other hand, the Opalescence home whitening kit includes teeth whitening gel syringes and personalized crafted trays that fit your teeth perfectly and are made in the dental office. The process is very friendly to do in the comfort of your own home. First you have to apply the gel in the tray and leave it for 30 minutes. After this, normally brush your teeth and repeat until you achieve the color you desire.

This type of bleaching is done in an endodontically treated tooth that has been discolored. First, the dentist will make a small hole on the back of the tooth in order to place in the bleach.  Secondly, the access hole will be sealed with a temporary filling material. Then, after 1 week you will visit Advanced Smiles Dentistry to remove the filling. If the color desire is achieved, the hole is sealed with a definitive restoration. If not, the procedure can be repeated until the goal color has been achieved.
