Have your teeth lost their original white color? Are your stained teeth making you feel self-conscious even when you smile? If this is the case, teeth whitening is the best option for you. Teeth whitening entails bleaching your teeth many shades lighter. This technique helps you remove plaque, stains, and yellowness from your teeth, restoring their natural color.
The professional teeth whitening treatments we provide at Lisa J. Baker, DDS in Bloomington, IN can quickly and easily remove stains and discoloration from your teeth and restore your attractive smile.
Teeth whitening is the process of professionally bleaching the teeth. Our dentist will first evaluate your teeth and make recommendations for teeth whitening. To begin, our dentist will apply a gel or a rubber shield to your gums to protect them. Following that, we will place a specially designed tray in your mouth to serve as a mouthguard and apply the whitening substance to your teeth. Carbamide peroxide or hydrogen peroxide is the most often used whitening agent for teeth bleaching.
Teeth whitening is not permanent, and the results stay longer if you merely practice good oral hygiene. Although it varies from person to person, it should endure for several years. The degree of whiteness achieved varies as well, depending on the extent of discoloration, the condition of the teeth, and the bleaching procedure employed.
Tooth discoloration can occur for a variety of reasons. It happens to everyone as they get older. In addition to the natural aging process, the following factors contribute to tooth discoloration:
Some of the reasons to have your teeth whitened are as follows:
Teeth whitening corrects discoloration caused by tartar, plaque, and other oral health problems.
You can have your teeth whitened to make your smile brighter and more appealing for an upcoming event.
The enamel wears away with age, resulting in tooth discoloration and other oral health complications. Teeth whitening can help you attain a beautiful and healthy smile.
Smoking harms your teeth and increases your risk of oral health problems, such as an increase in the buildup of bacteria and plaque on your teeth. Teeth whitening removes stains produced by smoking and results in a brighter smile.
