Safe. Effective. Convenient.
Safe:
Under the supervision of
your dentist, whitening your teeth has been proven safe in clinical studies.
What to expect:
The dentist will take impressions
of your teeth and make a custom tray for your whitening procedure.
The gel is placed in these thin, comfortable trays and fitted over your
teeth. As you whiten your teeth the carbamide peroxide bleaches out
the discolored areas - the structure of the tooth is unchanged. Results
can be seen in as little as one night - although optimum whiteness usually
occurs when the process is continued for a week to 14 days.
Side effects:
There are a few people who
may experience increased sensitivity to cold or hot during the whitening
process - this is temporary and can be treated with ibuprofen or another
pain reliever your dentist might suggest. This sensitivity will normally
go away within 48 hours once the whitening process is completed.
How long will it last?
The results can be permanent!
It all depends on you - practice good oral hygiene and brush normally,
especially after consuming staining foods or beverages and your results
could last for years. If you use substances that may have staining
effects, such as tobacco, red wine and coffee you may want periodic touch-ups
for one or two days every couple of years. |
