What To Expect at Your Teeth Whitening Appointment
We will start by examining your teeth, and then recommend a teeth whitening solution to suite your requirements.
We will suggest either an in-house treatment or one you can do at home, yourself. We also monitor the condition of your teeth to ensure you’re happy with your progress.
Before we embark on any whitening, we'll perform a thorough professional teeth cleaning. This allows the whitening solution to be more effective and come in contact with more of the surface area on the teeth.
Why do teeth become discoloured?
Teeth can become discoloured for a variety of reasons. Drinking dark-coloured drinks like coffee, tea, juice is a common cause of discolouration. Certain habits, such as smoking, can also cause the teeth to discolour. In addition, the colour of your skin and even makeup you’re wearing can also affect the appearance of your teeth. Aging is also one reason teeth appear less bright.
What is teeth whitening?
Teeth whitening is an umbrella term that refers to dental treatments that make teeth lighter in colour. At our office, we offer both in-office teeth bleaching, and take-home whitening kits, depending on your needs.
Types of Teeth Whitening Treatment in Calgary SE
Our dental office offers the following teeth whitening options to cater to every budget range and specific need.
Whitestrips
If you’re still not sure about going for a teeth whitening treatment, you may want to start with Whitestrips first. These Whitestrips come in a stronger solution than over-the-counter versions, making them work faster. Note, however, that misaligned teeth may not be able to benefit as much. Also, whitestrips won’t be able to effectively address colouring between teeth. They also won’t be able to brighten teeth that have recently received dental work such as crowns.
Dental Bleaching Trays
Dental bleaching trays are one of the most popular whitening options. We take a mould of your teeth to create custom fit trays. You then wear these trays for the recommended amount of time each day filled with a bleaching gel.
Laser Teeth Whitening
Laser Teeth Whitening. Also known as laser or power whitening, Zoom! is a one-time dental bleaching treatment that makes use of laser and lights. The whitening solution is applied directly on your tooth surfaces. The dental light activates the whitening solution which assists in reducing discolouration from your tooth enamel. We also provide you with a custom bleaching tray as well as a touch-up kit you can use from home.
