Professionally Supervise Tooth Whitening

Your smile care needs deserve an exceptional dental office, with a professional care team who provides leading-edge care and more comforts than you ever thought possible in a dentist’s office.
Even if you’re considering using an over-the-counter tooth whitener, the American Dental Association recommends that you consult with your dentist. This recommendation is made because tooth-whitening systems containing carbamide peroxide or hydrogen peroxide can be uncomfortable for those with sensitive teeth or gum recession. In addition, most products will only whiten natural tooth enamel, which means that the presence of tooth-colored filings, veneers, crowns, or partial dentures may yield uneven results. With this in mind, the dentist can evaluate whether tooth-whitening is a good idea for your teeth. While tooth whitening usually reduces most stains caused by age, smoking, and regular coffee/tea drinking, it will not remove tooth discoloration caused by the use of tetracycline in children under age 8.
