The benefits of professional teeth whitening

As tempting as it may be to reach for over-the-counter whitening products, there’s nothing quite like the results you can achieve with professional teeth whitening. 

Customized approach 

Professional whitening is not a one-size-fits-all solution. We tailor the treatment to your specific needs, ensuring a personalized approach that delivers optimal results. 

Quick and efficient

Time is of the essence during the holidays, and professional whitening is a quick and efficient process. In just one session, you can see a noticeable difference in the brightness of your smile. 

Long-lasting results

Unlike some at-home remedies that provide fleeting results, professional whitening offers long-lasting effects. Enjoy a bright and radiant smile that lasts throughout the holiday season and beyond. 

What to expect during a professional whitening session

Curious about what happens during a professional teeth whitening session? Let’s break it down. 

Consultation

The process begins with a consultation to assess the current shade of your teeth and discuss your expectations. Be sure to have all your questions and concerns ready to discuss with our team. 

Preparation

Before the whitening gel is applied, Dr. Thompson protects your gums and lips to ensure they are not exposed to the bleaching agent. This step is crucial for a comfortable experience. 

Application of whitening gel 

The whitening gel, containing a safe concentration of hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide, is carefully applied to your teeth. Depending on the system used, a special light may be used to enhance the whitening effects.

Monitoring progress

Throughout your session, Dr. Thompson carefully watches your progress, ensuring that the whitening process is achieving the desired results without causing any discomfort.

Post-whitening care 

After the treatment, Dr. Thompson provides guidance on how to maintain your results. This may include avoiding certain foods and beverages that can stain teeth. 

Maintaining your luminous smile 

Now that you’ve achieved a radiant smile, it’s essential to maintain it. Here are some tips for preserving your pearly whites. 

Practice good oral hygiene

Brush and floss regularly to prevent stains and maintain overall oral health. 

Avoid staining substances 

Limit your intake of coffee, tea, red wine, and other substances known to stain teeth. If you do indulge, rinse your mouth with water afterward. 

Regular dental checkups

Schedule regular dental checkups to address any concerns and keep your smile in top condition. 

This holiday season, let your smile be the star of the show in every photo. Professional teeth whitening offers a quick, effective, and personalized solution to enhance your pearly whites.
