Professional Teeth Whitening Boosts Appearance & Confidence
Over time, staining foods and beverages, tobacco use, and aging can take a toll on your smile. Teeth whitening is the fastest and most affordable way to enhance the natural beauty of your smile. While over-the-counter products have limited effectiveness or may contain abrasive ingredients that damage the enamel of your teeth, professional grade whitening products offer dramatic results.
Discoloration that can be removed with teeth whitening include:
- Yellowing due to aging
- Staining from coffee, wine, and other foods that stain teeth
- Tobacco use
- Poor oral hygiene
Not all stains can be removed with teeth whitening. Teeth that are discolored due to trauma to the tooth, overexposure to fluoride, or certain medications, such as tetracycline antibiotics, do not respond to teeth whitening treatment. Additionally, restorations can’t be lightened with teeth whitening. If you need a crown, bridge, or other restoration, we recommend having your teeth whitened first, so we can match your restoration to the new color of your teeth.
Professional Whitening in Our Office
Our in-office teeth whitening in Pueblo is the fastest way to get a whiter and brighter smile. The process is not painful and requires only one visit to the office. In office whitening treatments can usually be completed in about an hour, and you will leave the office with a whiter smile. A protective coating is painted onto your gums prior to the whitening treatment to protect them from becoming irritated.
A whitening gel is applied to the teeth and activated with a special light. After the first application, the color of your teeth is checked to determine if another application is needed. It is possible to lighten the teeth up to eight shades with this process. For teeth that are badly discolored, a second appointment may be needed to get the desired result.
Whitening Your Teeth at Home
If you prefer at-home whitening, there are professional grade products that your dentist can give you to use at home. For this method, custom whitening trays are made specifically for your teeth to produce a much better result than products sold in stores. You will use the trays with a whitening gel every night until your teeth reach the desired color.
Whether you choose in office teeth whitening in Pueblo or at home whitening trays, the results will last longer with good oral hygiene and care. After whitening, if you use tobacco or consume a lot of staining foods and beverages, new stains can form. Avoid staining foods and tobacco use for lasting results after professional teeth whitening treatment.
