If you have unsightly stains on your smile, then you could benefit from our teeth whitening treatments. We have both in-office and at-home selections that offer more dramatic results than store bought treatments. At your Avon, OH, dental practice, we can help you smile with confidence with a smile that truly shines!
Assessing Your Teeth Stains
First, we want to take a close look at your smile to assess the cause and severity of your teeth stains. With this information, we can help choose the most appropriate option for you. For many, stains could be the result of plaque buildup, a sticky layer brought on by a diet high in sugar and poor brushing and flossing habits. If you consume beverages with dark pigments, such as soda, red wine, tea, or coffee, this could also discolor your smile. Stains could be due to tobacco products too. Understanding the causes means you can change your daily habits to make discoloration less visible!
In-Office Teeth Whitening
Our in-office teeth whitening treatment is a popular one because you obtain results in as little as one to two hours. Essentially, when you come to the office, we place a protective covering over your lips and gums. We then apply a powerful bleaching gel to the teeth, which breaks up and removes teeth stains. The process can be repeated as needed. This can offer results in a short time, perfect if you have a job interview, big event, first date, or graduation just days away.
Whitening Smiles at Home
To take on more severe teeth stains, our team could offer treatment with a take-home kit. With this option, our team will take detailed impressions of your teeth and use them to create a custom set of plastic trays. You then take these trays home with you. We will also provide multiple plastic syringes of bleaching gel. You will add gel to the trays and then wear them for a set amount of time, usually an hour a day. The trays ensure the results are even and prevent the gel from being diluted by saliva. For some, a smile eight shades brighter is possible in as little as a week to ten days. You then keep the trays and any remaining gel for touch-ups as needed!
