Learn What Options Are Available If You Want Whiter Teeth

Smiling with confidence can be difficult for someone embarrassed by teeth stains. The frustrating truth is that stains can build up over time even when you do a good job protecting yourself against the formation of cavities. With so many popular foods and drinks capable of causing discoloration, avoiding this issue can be difficult, and it can also be a struggle to remove stains with store bought products. Fortunately, you can see meaningful results through a professional whitening procedure! At our Maple Grove, MN dentist’s office, we can discuss two different whitening treatment options for patients. One option is to have your smile whitened in our office with a process we can complete in one appointment. The other option gives you a custom kit from your dentist that you take home and use at your convenience!

How Do You Currently Feel About The Color Of Your Smile?

Do you have doubts about your smile because of noticeable stains? Have your teeth grown dull or discolored in the past few years? Even if you do a good job preventing active oral health issues like tooth decay and gum disease, it can be difficult to completely prevent the accumulation of stains on your enamel. As this problem progresses, your smile’s color can grow less bright and less attractive. Fighting stains with store bought products can be difficult because the treatments available to you can produce limited results. Whitening agents available at our practice can go beyond the removal of surface stains to produce more exciting improvements!

Planning A Professional Teeth Whitening Treatment

Take-home whitening kits include custom oral trays and advanced whitening agents available from your dentist. When you pick up your kit, you can begin fighting discoloration at home by performing daily treatments. Over the course of your recommended daily treatments (usually around ten days), your smile can become significantly brighter, matching the improvements produced by an in-office procedure!

If you want to see results as soon as possible, you can schedule a time to come in and have your dentist whiten your smile. The whitening agents that we use will remove stubborn stains in a short time thanks to a special curing light that we use to activate their effects. To help with especially tough stains, we can repeat the process in order to produce your desired outcome.

Should You Consider A Different Cosmetic Procedure?

One important note about dental discoloration is that it is not always the result of stains. If your smile has changed color because of internal tooth issues, we can recommend another cosmetic dental treatment option for you. By restoring dull teeth with porcelain veneers, we can hide discoloration, cover up damages and discoloration, and even help improve your smile by hiding gaps and overlaps between teeth.
