Carmel Mountain Ranch Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is a great way to restore your smile, rejuvenate your face, and boost your self-confidence. And, best of all, it’s non-invasive, inexpensive, and doesn’t even require the use of any needles or anesthetic. These are just a few reasons that teeth whitening is one of the most popular cosmetic dentistry treatments in America.
At Carmel Mountain Ranch Dental Care, Dr. Carpenter are experienced cosmetic dentists, and have years of experience working with top teeth whitening products. Here’s a few things to know about this effective treatment:
How Does Teeth Whitening Work?
There are a huge number of teeth whitening products on the market, including trays, gels, strips, mouthwashes, and more. No matter which method you use, all teeth whiteners contain compounds that are called “peroxides”.
These peroxides react when they contact organic surface stains on the teeth, and the result is a brighter smile and whiter tooth enamel. Teeth whitening removes stains and yellowing caused by dark beverages like coffee, wine, and tea, as well as those caused by aging and tobacco use.
Take-Home Vs. In-Office Whitening – What’s Better For Me?
If you’re thinking about getting your teeth whitened at Carmel Mountain Ranch Dental Care, you may be wondering what the difference is between in-office and take-home teeth whitening.
At our office, we use high-quality Ultradent whitening products for both in-office treatments and at-home trays. The primary difference between in-office and take-home treatments is the speed of the whitening.
In-office teeth whitening uses a more powerful peroxide-based compound, and a UV light that helps boost the speed of results. You can get a much whiter smile in just a single hour-long session, so it’s ideal if you want to whiten your teeth fast. Take-home teeth whitening takes a little longer. Dr. Carpenter will give you a set of custom-fit whitening trays, which you’ll wear for several weeks in the comfort of your own home.
The end result of both treatments is the same, but it will take a little longer to get your results with take-home whitening. The biggest benefit of take-home whitening is that you don’t have to spend any time in the dentist’s chair. In addition, take-home whitening is a bit more gentle than in-office whitening for patients who have sensitive teeth.
