Stained, yellowed teeth are exceptionally common. Just about everyone experiences some discoloration, in large part because so many foods and beverages can cause teeth stains! Fortunately, our teeth whitening in Aurora, CO, can restore and rejuvenate your smile.
Is Teeth Whitening Right For You?
The best thing about professional teeth whitening is that it can eliminate even the toughest stains. You can also be sure that each of your teeth will be evenly whitened, which is sometimes an issue with over-the-counter whitening kits. Most of our patients who visit for teeth whitening are good candidates for this treatment. However, if you have gum or tooth sensitivity, our dentists will discuss which treatment might be better for you.
The Staining Culprits
- Certain foods, including berries, soy sauce, tomato sauce, curry and beets
- Certain beverages, including black coffee, tea, red and white wine, and soda
- The aging process, which causes enamel to thin
- Poor dental hygiene
- Smoking
- Dental decay or failing restorations
Get a Brighter Smile
Brushing and flossing are a must to maintain your smile, but doing this alone won’t whiten your smile to its full potential. We offer professional teeth whitening to take your pearly whites to a whole new level!
Our Options for Teeth Whitening
In-Office Teeth Whitening
Philips Zoom® whitening is completed at our office in about one hour. A barrier is placed on the gum tissue to prevent the whitening agent from coming into contact with the gums and surrounding tissues. We then apply the whitening gel to the surfaces of your teeth and leave it on for 20 minutes. At that time, the gel is removed.
Most patients will undergo 2 to 3 applications, depending on the base color and sensitivity level of their teeth. In-office whitening agents are stronger than take-home agents, which allows for beautiful results in a shorter amount of time. You'll leave our office with your whitened smile, ready to show off. It can be the perfect option if you are getting ready for a wedding, job interview, retirement party, or another event where you want to look and feel your best.
Customized Take-Home Whitening Trays
If you are not overly concerned with getting results in one hour, you may opt for take-home whitening trays. We take impressions of your teeth to create custom trays. You are then provided with a kit containing the appropriate whitening gel and instructed on how to place small beads of gel in the trays. After about two weeks of wearing them for the specified time each day, your teeth will be brilliantly white!
