The most effective teeth-whitening treatment is in-office professional teeth whitening done at the hands of our skilled team at Cowles Dental Care. Professional teeth whitening treatments are so effective they can upgrade the shade of your teeth by up to ten shades in a single visit. For at home use, your dentist can provide you with a do-it-yourself program, or suggest an over-the-counter product. Here are some tips to remember with teeth-whitening products:
– Not all teeth whitening products use the same materials to whiten teeth. Thus, some bleach teeth deeper than others that simply look to only remove stains at the surface.
– Before using any dental product, always contact your dentist at Cowles Dental Care to ensure the product is right for you.
– Beware of any products that stimulate tooth sensitivity, gum bleaching, or gum irritation.
– The three major types of teeth whitening products are over-the-counter, dentist-administered bleaching treatments, and treatments prescribed by dentists for at-home use.
– Always use a teeth bleaching product exactly as instructed and for the time required. Leaving a whitening product on for far too long can damage your mouth.
