3 Reasons Why Professional Teeth Whitening Is The Best Option

by Gregory Price

No one wants to have yellow teeth that they have to feel self-conscious about. Thankfully, there are effective forms of teeth whitening that remove this top layer of yellow from your teeth. One of the best methods of teeth whitening is to have your teeth whitened by your dentist. Here are three reasons why professional teeth whitening is the best option.

It Is Quick

One excellent reason to have your dentist professionally whiten your teeth is the quick time frame in which he can do it. Most dentists use a laser to whiten their patient's teeth and this procedure can generally be completed in one visit. The laser beam is used to whiten the teeth directly and the effect is almost immediate. The level of whitening is also not lessened by the short time frame and you can get your teeth several shades whiter in one visit.

It Doesn't Hurt

A complaint that many people experience when they use whitening strips is a pain in their teeth. This is caused by the thinning of the enamel on each tooth. While this thinning can make their teeth whiter, it can also cause increased sensitivity in each tooth and it can make them more susceptible to cavities. When you have your teeth professionally whitened, the dentist is able to use the laser to shoot past the first layer of enamel and whiten the tooth underneath. This removes several layers of deep stains from your teeth and can even help to remove stains that you thought were permanent. 

The Results Last

When you have your teeth whitened, you want these results to last for an extended period of time. There are a few different reasons why your teeth will stay whiter for longer when you choose to have them professionally whitened. For one thing, the enamel will remain intact, which gives you a layer of protection between whatever you are eating and your teeth. Also, because the laser whitens your teeth for several layers down, it will take a great deal of time to build up these stains once again. Lastly, because your dentist is whitening your teeth, they will likely guarantee their work and will whiten them again if you aren't pleased with the results.

By having your teeth professionally whitened by your dentist, you can make sure that the whitening procedure is quick, it doesn't hurt your teeth, and you know that the results will last you for quite some time. To learn more, contact a dentist in your area.

About Me

Up until a year ago, I did my best to keep my teeth and gums clean. But after securing a new job, I began to work late into the night and didn't have the time or energy to brush and floss before I retired to bed. My busy schedule and poor dental hygiene finally affected my teeth and gums. After experiencing severe pain in several of my teeth, I made an appointment with my dentist. My dentist examined my mouth and discovered three large cavities in my molars. After four long weeks, my dentist finally completed my dental work. I learned a very painful lesson during that time. No matter how busy you are, always brush and floss. I started this blog to inform other people about the importance of good dental care. I hope you find the time to read it. Thanks for visiting.
