Teeth-Whitening Procedures That Dentists Offer

teeth whitening servicesWhile you may try a variety of home remedies and over-the-counter treatments to brighten your smile, you may be surprised at what a teeth whitening dentist in Toronto can do for you. Many people are self-conscious about their yellow or discoloured teeth. Teeth whitening has become a huge industry with a wide range of products that promise to whiten teeth. Unfortunately, the effectiveness of these products can vary wildly. What few people realize is that dentists and other dental professionals offer teeth whitening services in Toronto and other regions. Teeth-whitening services offered by professionals have a lot of benefits over the products you might find on a shelf.

 

Advantages of Professional Dental Procedures

Here are a few of the reasons why you should see a dentist for teeth whitening rather than potentially waste money on store-bought products.

It’s More Effective

Dentists are trained professionals and are allowed to use stronger—and more effective—procedures. Your dentist may bleach your teeth, which is one of the most common teeth whitening procedures and many store-bought and over-the-counter teeth whitening treatments also use bleaching. However, dentists are allowed to use a much stronger formula that can whiten teeth much more effectively than any consumer product.

Other Conditions Are Ruled Out

Some of the time, yellow or discoloured teeth are due to stains (from cigarettes or coffee) or poor oral hygiene. However, other times discoloured teeth can indicate more serious dental concerns, such as gum disease. In fact, gum disease is one of the leading causes of yellow teeth. When you use home remedies, you may be delaying treatment for a serious condition and allowing it to get worse. When you opt for a professional dental procedure, your dentist can rule out the possibility of any serious conditions.

You Get a Custom Procedure

Store-bought products are a one-size-fits-all solution that may not fit your needs. For instance, teeth-whitening trays may not fit properly in every individual’s mouth, making them ineffective for whitening. A dentist can provide custom teeth-whitening trays made specifically to work with your mouth.

Difficult Cases Can Be Treated

What many people don’t realize is that certain types of discoloured teeth cannot be whitened by home remedies. For instance, crowns, fillings, and other restorations will not whiten like regular teeth. Furthermore, grey teeth are difficult to whiten and can require special treatment. A dentist can perform teeth-whitening procedures that work on difficult cases.
