Over time most teeth lose their luster and brightness because they accumulate stains made by foods and beverages. New whitening agents can remove these stains without harming your teeth. By far the best and fastest whitening solutions are offered by your dentist. During a typical whitening procedure, your dentist will fabricate a custom tray to hold whitening gel against your teeth. You take the trays home and wear the gel-filled trays each night or for several hours during the day for several weeks.
Dentists can also bleach teeth in the office.
This is called power bleaching or laser bleaching. Ask your dentist about dental whitening. To find a dentist in your area that performs this procedure, click here.
