Let’s face it. Many of us can’t start our day without a large cup of coffee. Some of our everyday habits can cause teeth discoloration. Having stained teeth isn’t exactly the best way to present yourself. If you’re satisfied with the shape and alignment of your teeth, but you need an entire shine, teeth whitening is a fantastic option as it is a pain-free process. With just one visit to our office, you will see a noticeable difference in the brightness of your smile.
Laser whitening is a teeth whitening technique in which gums are covered with a rubber dam and a bleaching chemical is applied on the teeth. A beam of argon laser, which is intended to accelerate the process of bleaching, is then projected upon the teeth. This laser activates the bleaching chemical and lightens the teeth color. Laser whitening is said to be six times more effective in teeth whitening compared to other procedures
WE USE EPIC LASER TECHNOLOGY
A Better Way to Whiten in the Clinic:
Whitening is one of the most sought-after cosmetic improvements that patients seek. With a variety of retail and take-home products available, none can achieve the results and immediate impact of in-office whitening.
Research has shown that Epic dental lasers are capable of delivering 6-12 shades (varies by patient) with less than 20 minutes of gel-to-tooth contact time. The laser energy from an Epic laser interacts with chromophores in the proprietary laser-activated gel to accelerate the in-office whitening procedure.
Will teeth whitening work if my teeth are severely discolored?
If you teeth have experienced severe discoloration, chances are that teeth whitening will not give you the bright white smile you are hoping for. In these cases other options are available such as composite bonding or porcelain veneers.
Does teeth whitening have any side effects associated with it?
We take the necessary measures to ensure that bleaching agents do not damage your gum tissue so that you can have a comfortable teeth whitening experience. After the procedure is complete you may experience tooth sensitivity for a short period of time.
