Everyone wants whiter, brighter teeth. There are many different brands and types of over-the-counter teeth whitening kits to choose from, or you could go to your dentist and have your teeth professionally whitened. Many patients in Carol Stream, Illinois, choose to have the dentist whiten their teeth as part of their annual check-up. Professional Teeth Whitening can be a much better option than whitening them with an over-the-counter kit at home.
Having your dentist professionally whiten your teeth will give you a much brighter, whiter smile. Your dentist will use a whitening system that is a much higher quality than what you would find at your local drug store. Higher quality means brighter white and longer-lasting results.
Having your dentist whiten your teeth with a professional system reduces the risk of damaging your enamel. Some over-the-counter teeth whitening kits are extremely abrasive. The more they are used, the whiter your teeth get and the more risk to the sensitive enamel that protects your teeth from damage. While professional systems are much stronger, they are also more controlled under the watchful eye of your dentist. There is less mess, and you are better able to protect your enamel if you let your dentist do the work.
Professional whitening systems used by your dentist will provide much longer results than what you will receive from an over-the-counter kit. Where an over-the-counter kit may need to be used once every two weeks, a professional whitening performed by your dentist may last up to six months if you take care of your teeth properly and avoid substances that may cause them to stain. The treatment will last for several months as long as you limit yourself to the things that cause the most stains.
One of the best reasons to visit your dentist for all of your teeth whitening needs is that they can customize a treatment plan just for you. Not everyone will need the same degree of whitening. Some may need several treatments before they reach a shade of white they prefer. They can set up a schedule that will allow you to maintain the degree of white you have achieved while preventing any damage to the surface of your teeth.
