Keeping our teeth their whitest is a lot harder than it sounds. With all the coffee, wine, smoking and other foods that have the ability to stain our teeth on a daily basis, even proper maintenance sometimes leaves them a little discolored. Teeth whitening is an excellent way to restore the natural color of your teeth or even make them whiter than your natural color if you would like.
To accomplish the whitening of your teeth, we utilize a tray whitening system. This tray whitening system is completed in 2 steps. The first step is to make an impression of your teeth. With this impression, we'll craft you custom whitening trays that you can use over and over. Finally, you will dispense the whitening gel into the custom whitening trays and place them onto your teeth. Depending on the concentration of the whitening gel, the whitening trays are worn over a period of time over a period of a few days. This often results in a whiter smile of 4 - 8 shades!
We also offer another whitening system for people who may want to just try whitening and not invest in custom trays. This product is called Opalesscence Go. This option is disposable trays that already contain the whitening gel inside. They are worn for 30-60 minutes. We recommend this option for our patients with a busy on-the-go life.
