What Is Professional Teeth Whitening?
Professional teeth whitening is a cosmetic dentistry treatment designed to lighten stains and discoloration on the visible surfaces of the teeth.
Whitening treatment uses professional-strength whitening agents to break down discoloration in the enamel and create a brighter overall appearance.
What Is Zoom Teeth Whitening?
Zoom teeth whitening is a professional whitening system designed to brighten teeth more efficiently than many over-the-counter products. Treatment is performed under professional supervision so the whitening process can be tailored to your smile.
Dr. Carreon can evaluate your teeth before treatment and discuss the shade changes you would like to achieve.
What Causes Tooth Discoloration?
Teeth can become darker or more stained for many reasons. Common contributors include:
- Coffee and tea
- Tobacco use
- Natural aging
- Certain medications
- Some medical conditions
- Fluorosis
- Plaque and surface buildup
The type of discoloration matters because not every stain responds to whitening in the same way.
Who May Benefit From Teeth Whitening?
Professional whitening may be worth considering if your teeth have become yellowed, dull or stained and you want a brighter appearance without changing the shape of your teeth.
Many patients choose whitening before weddings, photographs, professional events or other occasions, while others simply want to refresh their smile as part of their regular cosmetic care.
Why Choose Professional Whitening?
Store shelves and online retailers offer many whitening products, but professional treatment provides greater control over the whitening process and allows your teeth to be evaluated before treatment begins.
A professional consultation can also help determine whether discoloration is likely to respond to whitening or whether another cosmetic option should be considered.
What Happens During Teeth Whitening?
Professional whitening treatment generally involves applying whitening gel to the visible tooth surfaces. The gel works to break down stains and lighten discoloration in the enamel.
Treatment time can vary based on the whitening system used, your starting tooth color and the level of whitening you want to achieve.
How White Can My Teeth Get?
Whitening results vary from person to person. Your starting shade, the type of staining and the condition of your enamel can all influence the final result.
Dr. Carreon can discuss realistic expectations before treatment so you understand what whitening may accomplish for your smile.
Will Whitening Change the Color of Crowns or Fillings?
Teeth whitening is designed to lighten natural tooth enamel and does not whiten dental restorations in the same way. Crowns, veneers, bonding and tooth-colored fillings generally retain their existing shade.
If you have visible restorations, Dr. Carreon can consider their color when discussing your whitening goals and overall cosmetic treatment plan.
How Can I Help Maintain My Whitening Results?
Whitening results can gradually fade as the teeth are exposed to foods, beverages and other sources of staining. Good oral hygiene and regular dental cleanings and exams can help remove surface buildup and keep your smile looking its best.
Limiting tobacco and heavily staining drinks may also help your results last longer.
