Do you have stains impacting the appearance of your smile? If so, then you should see our team for treatment. With professional teeth whitening, we have a comfortable and effective way to make your smile shine. In today’s blog, your team at Dental Impressions in Ankeny, IA, talks about removing teeth stains with professional whitening.
Teeth Whitening In Our Office
We have an in-office teeth whitening procedure that can help lift stains from your teeth in just one to two hours total. This option works great if you need quick results before a job interview, first date, or other big events. The process is simple. We will apply a protective coating on your gums and lips, and then apply the powerful bleaching gel to the surfaces of your teeth. The gel is then activated with a special light, which breaks up and lifts discoloration from your teeth. We can repeat the process as needed to ensure dramatic results when you leave our office!
Removing Stains from Home
We also have two different options that let you remove stains and brighten your smile by as many as eight shades from home! With at-home teeth whitening, we could send you home with a series of prefilled trays. These contain a powerful bleaching gel, and when worn daily for a set amount of time, will brighten your smile by several shades, often in as little as a week. We also have a similar alternative that uses a set of custom trays we make specifically for your smile in-office. You then take this home accompanied by several plastic syringes of bleaching gel to add to the trays at home before you wear them. You can keep the trays and any remaining gel afterward should you need touch-ups down the road.
Masking Discolorations with Bonding
What if you have teeth stains too severe to be addressed with trays and gel? If this occurs, then we could still help you enjoy a brighter smile. Instead of traditional whitening, we could use dental bonding to mask them. With this cosmetic treatment, we will use the same material we employ in our lifelike fillings. Instead of treating cavities, we will coat the outside of the teeth to brighten your smile and offer a much more attractive appearance! This can also address minor issues like injuries or even misshapen structures.
