It's much safer to let Access Dental & Dentures take care of the whitening process for you or, at the very least, let us counsel you before trying any new whitening products. Here's a look at some of the possible side effects that could occur with over-whitening, followed by the benefits of letting our professionals help you whiten those teeth instead.
Effects of Over-Whitening
The most common side effect of teeth whitening is increased tooth sensitivity. If you already have sensitive teeth, gum disease, or teeth with worn enamel, using teeth whitening products can worsen these conditions. Be aware also, if you have had bonding or tooth-colored fillings, whiteners do not affect the color of these materials so they will not match the rest of your newly whitened teeth.
Teeth cannot handle the repeated stripping that happens with whitening. It leaves the enamel worn and teeth are more susceptible to cracking or chipping. In some extreme cases, teeth can even become flexible and bend when pressure is applied!
Benefits of Professional Whitening
Our dental offices in Southern Missouri will provide you with a custom whitening tray, made from your own dental impressions. You can customize the brightness of your smile at home with the whitening agent we supply. This way, our dentists can give you a treatment specifically created for your mouth, plus offer advice and monitor the progress so you don't overdo it.
Some of the many benefits of getting assistance from Access Dental to whiten your teeth include:
- A Custom Whitening Tray
As mentioned above, we fit the whitening tray to your teeth for a perfect fit. - Complete Coverage
The customized tray ensures that all of your teeth are covered evenly and completely, keeping each tooth the same shade of white. - Professional Strength
Our dentists are able to give you a professional strength whitener for faster results than over-the-counter brands. This will help you gain and maintain the shade of white you desire. - You Control the Shade
Treatments are applied by you, at home, as often as you would like to achieve the perfect whiteness, but with the knowledge, advice, and monitoring from our professionals at your checkups. - Convenience
You have the convenience of making your teeth whiter on your own time schedule. Also, with our many convenient locations throughout Southern Missouri, it's simple to schedule an appointment to get your customized whitening tray at an office near you.
Whitening your teeth should be done in moderation and is always best under the supervision and recommendations of your dentist. The knowledgable dental professionals at Access Dental & Dentures are able to guide you to the most effective ways to brighten your smile and keep it that way. After all, our goal is to help you keep that great smile you deserve!
We want to be your dentist because your family deserves a great smile!
