Who is a Good Candidate for Teeth Whitening?

The best candidates for teeth whitening are those who don’t have lingering oral health problems, but who are unhappy with the shade of their teeth. Discoloration can occur for a variety of reasons, including genetics, consuming certain stain-causing foods and beverages, and as a side-effect to certain medications, like tetracycline.

Teeth whitening isn’t ideal for patients who have restorations like veneers, crowns and bridges because they’re non-porous, meaning they won’t whiten alongside your natural teeth, causing your smile to be multiple shades. We also recommend that patients receive a professional cleaning before getting teeth whitening for ideal results.

How Does Take-Home Teeth Whitening Work?

We utilize highly effective Philips Zoom! DayWhite take-home teeth whitening kits, which contain concentrated gel and customized whitening trays that you’ll wear for two weeks. The DayWhite kit is designed to be worn for between 30 and 90 minutes once each day, yielding an impressively bright smile. The gel itself is specially formulated and contains amorphous calcium phosphate, potassium nitrate, and fluoride, which help minimize sensitivity as well as strengthen your tooth enamel to prevent cavities in the future, ensuring your oral health never becomes compromised throughout the process.

Tips for Maintaining Your Results
