Fix discolored, dark or stained teeth with tooth whitening
Tooth
Whitening involves the placement of a Whitening solution on the
teeth to eliminate stains and discoloration. The solution is held in
place by a custom-made, see-through tray that fits over the teeth -
much like a smaller version of a mouthpiece worn by a professional
boxer.
Dentist supervised whitening is
a safe, effective and relatively easy means of producing a whiter
smile.
Two whitening methods are
available at Lake Creek Dental Care: Power Whitening with a ZOOM
light, done at our office, and At-Home-Whitening, which provides for
home use (not to be confused with over-the-counter bleaching
products available in Austin and Cedar Park area drug stores).
The difference between the two
is the strength of the whitening agent and the time it takes to get
effective results. ZOOM Power whitening usually one visit, while
home whitening may take up to four weeks of regular use.
Sensitive teeth, or those that
are chipped, eroded or weakened by cavities, should be repaired or
protected before they are whitened.
Please don't hesitate to call Lake Creek Dental Care
at (512) 879-9202 with any questions you may have about the benefits
of tooth whitening for a whiter smile.
