As time goes on and you get older, it can cause your teeth to become dull, yellow and deeply stained. By smoking, drinking soda and alcohol and using tobacco, you can increase this staining. When your teeth are stained, you may smile less and feel a lack of self-confidence. If your teeth are yellowed and stained, there is hope to bring them back to their original whiteness. Through Teeth Whitening Phoenix services, your smile can be restored.
When you first go in for your teeth whitening visit, the dentist will examine your teeth and gums to make sure that you are a good candidate for teeth whitening. After the examination, your teeth will be thoroughly cleaned, flossed and polished. This removes any plaque and food debris so that the whitening agent can better penetrate the teeth and remove the stains.
Once you are ready for the teeth whitening to begin, the dentist will paint the whitening agent onto your teeth. You will need to wear a special tray that helps to keep the whitening solution on your teeth, since saliva can wash it away.
With some teeth whiteners, the dentist will use a special light that helps to increase the whitening effect of the solution. This light helps the solution to better penetrate the enamel of the teeth so that the deepest stains are removed.
Once the solution has been on the teeth for a specified amount of time, the dentist will remove the plastic tray and rinse your mouth well. Then, your teeth will be carefully brushed, to remove any leftover whitening agent, and your teeth will be polished. The polishing brings out the shine and the whiteness of the teeth. Through the services of your Teeth Whitening Phoenix dentist, your smile can be beautiful again.
