Unlike over-the-counter whitening products, which can take weeks to show any noticeable results, professional teeth whitening provides immediate results. In just one session, your teeth can become several shades whiter. This makes it an excellent option for those who want to improve their smile quickly, perhaps for a special event or occasion.
When you choose professional teeth whitening, your treatment is tailored to your unique needs and goals. Dr. Knox and Dr. Ding will assess the condition of your teeth and discuss your desired outcome. They can then adjust the intensity of the whitening to achieve the precise level of brightness you want.
Safety is a significant advantage of professional teeth whitening. Over-the-counter products can lead to gum irritation or tooth sensitivity if not used correctly. But at Smiles of Bulverde, the whitening process is overseen by experienced professionals, ensuring your comfort and safety throughout the treatment.
The first step in the teeth whitening process is an initial consultation. During this visit, Dr. Knox or Dr. Ding will examine your teeth and gums to ensure they are healthy enough for whitening. They will also discuss your whitening goals and explain the procedure in detail.
Before the whitening procedure, your teeth will be thoroughly cleaned to remove any plaque or tartar. This allows the whitening solution to penetrate more effectively. Your gums will also be protected with a special covering to prevent any potential irritation from the whitening gel.
Once your teeth are clean and your gums protected, the whitening procedure can begin. A professional-grade whitening gel is applied to your teeth and activated with a special light. This process is repeated a few times within the same session to achieve the desired level of whiteness.
The results of teeth whitening can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years, depending on your oral hygiene and lifestyle. Factors like smoking, drinking coffee, or consuming staining foods can reduce the longevity of the whitening effects.
