What to Know About Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is a step that can make quite an impact. Before you take that step, you might have some thoughts about what the procedure might look like.
We’ve listed a brief overview of common concerns patients might have about this treatment. Our initial appointment is designed to work you through any concerns and determine eligibility for the procedure, so there’s no concern if you have further questions—we’re always happy to answer them.
Preparing for Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is an exciting step towards embracing your smile! Here are some ways to make the teeth whitening appointment and your life after the visit as seamless as possible.
- Practice Exceptional Hygiene: Daily brushing and flossing habits make a difference in the longevity of your teeth whitening treatment. You may want to consider switching to a soft-bristled toothbrush to reduce the abrasion of the whitening solution.
- Establish a Clean Health Record: Patients need to have a clear oral health record to receive teeth whitening treatment. Bridge Creek Dental happily offers restorative and general dental treatment to clear any outstanding complications.
Watch Your Diet: A frequent misstep patients make after whitening their teeth is over-indulgence in acidic and sugary foods that easily stain your teeth. We suggest taking a moment to evaluate your diet to help your teeth stay bright and white.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Teeth Whitening Risky?
Teeth whitening is the furthest thing from experimental—this procedure is performed by countless patients worldwide. The only possible side effect you may receive from treatment is slight tooth sensitivity, which tends to go away after a few days.
If you are concerned about tooth sensitivity, our KöR whitening tools are built to help patients experience less tooth sensitivity. The procedure is not painful and we have plenty of tools (such as dental sedation) to help ease any anxiety before the procedure begins. Our team is here to help you look and feel your best.
Does Teeth Whitening Last?
Our teeth come in contact with foods and drinks constantly. This constant momentum makes it difficult for teeth-whitening solutions to stay as vibrant as they initially are, making them prone to fading. Due to this, whitening usually lasts about six months to a couple of years.
How Do I Care for Whitened Teeth?
Fortunately, there are simple methods that you can practice at home to help your whitening service last as long as possible, including:
- Avoiding Coarse Food: Unhealthy and tough foods such as candy and soda can cause your teeth to stain as the food settles into the enamel or on the surface.
- Brushing After Meals: One quick and easy way to help reduce the buildup of tooth stains is to immediately brush your teeth after a meal.
- Preventing Dental Damage: Tooth trauma can quickly reverse whitening teeth despite best efforts. Take caution while in high-risk weather or sporting activities.
- Scheduling Regular Visits: Biannual dental visits can keep your teeth bright and reduce the risk of infection, which can corrode your teeth.
How Often Should I Whiten My Teeth?
Being conscientious about oral health can make a more sustainable difference than scheduling multiple visits. We are happy to work with your needs to help you enjoy a bright smile as much as possible. The frequency of teeth whitening depends on your experience with tooth sensitivity and other genetic and behavioral factors.
Can You Treat Blackened Teeth?
Overly darkened or black teeth are often the result of the internal structure of your tooth, rather than the surface of your smile. These cases typically signify a need for more serious dental intervention or even replacement teeth, depending on the circumstances.
Teeth whitening is ideal for adult patients who experience brown- or yellow-stained teeth. If you are unsure whether your teeth qualify for teeth whitening, feel free to let us know and we would be happy to advise you on an ideal course of action.
