Teeth Whitening

What is Teeth Whitening?

Professional teeth whitening can improve the overall appearance of your teeth, whitening them by several shades in a single treatment.

The whitening agents are designed to penetrate the surface of your teeth to break up tough stains, like tobacco and wine, that discolor your teeth and make you look older than you are.

What’s the Benefit of In-Office Teeth Whitening?

While many products are available over-the-counter to whiten your teeth at home, professional teeth whitening can often help you achieve more dramatic results. Stronger gels are used in a professional session to get your teeth whiter while ensuring your safety and overall dental health.

In some cases, you may need a combination of in-office and at-home whitening to help you maintain your results.

Is Professional Teeth Whitening Right for Me?

If you want to improve the overall appearance of your teeth to help you look younger, professional teeth whitening can be an ideal option. You can benefit from professional whitening if you have stained or yellowed teeth, despite good oral hygiene.

Some conditions may influence your decision to have your teeth whitened. If your teeth or gums are sensitive or you have an active infection, you may need to consider other options to enhance the look of your teeth.

Your Dr. G’s provider creates a custom whitening plan to achieve your desired results. They also ensure your teeth and gums are healthy enough for treatment.

How Long Do Results of Professional Teeth Whitening Last?

One of the benefits of teeth whitening is the immediate results you see after treatment. Teeth will appear several shades whiter and brighter, while still looking natural.

While results depend on the health of your teeth, many people enjoy whiter teeth for a year or more before needing additional treatments.

To extend your long-term results, you should brush your teeth after every meal and avoid substances that can cause new staining, such as tobacco and wine. You also need to schedule routine cleanings with your dentist.
