Smile whitening is cosmetic dentistry’s most mainstream treatment that pretty much everyone knows about because it’s available over-the-counter. You can’t go to the oral health aisles in the supermarket or drugstore without seeing a variety of smile whitening products to choose from. This is because our teeth are stained from too much coffee, tea, wine, sodas, and other foods and beverages that people want to find a way to whiten their teeth without it costing a fortune.
At Townsend Dental Group, we understand how it feels to have a confident, whiter smile, especially if you’re facing a big special occasion. That’s why we offer our patients two separate smile whitening options:
- Take-Home: The take-home trays are generally worn with a special whitening solution either twice daily for a half-hour or overnight for a few weeks. It all depends on the degree of discoloration in your smile.
- Whitening Strips: Professional whitening strips are a safe, convenient way to whiten your teeth while on the go. These plastic strips adhere to your teeth and are unnoticeable to the naked eye while attacking stain build up on the tooth’s surface.
Talk to us about your professional whitening options to see which may best fit your needs. (The results will last way longer than those whitening strips you’ve been using.)
