Cosmetic Dentistry
& Teeth Whitening

This is a simple, safe, and effective way to enhance your smile. It does not harm the teeth or gums. It simply removes all the stains from your teeth so that they are as white as they naturally are. Bleaching your teeth can be done as a single visit whitening (one appointment) or as a take home method with custom made trays (this method takes about a week). Consider a few things with bleaching. It will only get your teeth as white as they naturally are and some stains such as tetracycline staining are tough to bleach out. If your teeth are naturally very white, you will get an incredible result. If your teeth are naturally a little yellow, that is as white as they will become. Also, fillings, venners, crowns and cement left from braces will not get whiter. The bleach will not whiten through plaque and tarter, so have your teeth cleaned first for best results.

How long it will last depends on your diet. The main staining foods are soft drinks, coffee, tea, wine and smoking. Depending on your diet you may need a touch up every 6-8 months or once every couple of years.
