TEETH WHITENING

Everyone wants a stunning smile. But coffee consumption, aging, and medications can take their toll on our teeth. Over time, everyone’s smile begins to lose its brilliance.

Fortunately, you can regain that youthful glow with a fast and easy dental treatment. Dr. Todd’s patients love the results of our Ultradent whitening experience.

Ultradent offers both take-home and in-office whitening options that both yield outstanding results. The whitening gel contains protective ingredients including potassium nitrate and fluoride, so you can boost the health of your teeth and brighten them simultaneously. These ingredients also shield against sensitivity.

Ultradent gel preserves your smile’s strength while giving you that gorgeous white Hollywood grin you’ve always wanted.

Teeth whitening is one of the most common and effective cosmetic dentistry treatments. You can see noticeable results in just one visit to our office, and professional teeth whitening is very safe.

How Does In-Office Teeth Whitening Work?

The most effective option for teeth whitening is in-office treatments. During a visit to our office, you’ll start with a consultation. This is when Dr. Todd will take impressions of your teeth and use these to create custom whitening trays. 

Once the trays are ready, Dr. Todd will fill the trays with your custom whitening gel. You then place the trays on your teeth. He will supervise the whitening process and may use a curing light to ensure fast, lasting results.

Most people see noticeable results after just one treatment. In-office, professional teeth whitening is best if you want to lighten your teeth multiple shades or have deep stains and discoloration. 

When you don’t like how your teeth look, it can greatly impact how you feel about your physical appearance. With teeth whitening, it’s easy to get a boost of self-confidence in just one visit. Plus, this treatment is pain-free and noninvasive.

How Does At-Home Professional Whitening Work?

First, come see Dr. Todd for a thorough oral exam. If you’re a good candidate for teeth whitening, we will take impressions of your teeth, which we use to fabricate custom whitening trays just for you. This part of the process is very similar to in-office teeth whitening, but instead of applying the whitening trays at our office, you’ll take them home.

We will provide you with the trays, the powerful formula, and the instructions you need for a flawless application. At home, fill your personalized tray with the gel and wear the trays for the time indicated by Dr. Todd. Results usually become obvious within a week or two.

Is Professional Whitening Really Better than Over-the-Counter Options?

Many patients ask: Why not just buy a whitening toothpaste or a kit from the store? While these drugstore products will brighten your teeth to some degree, neither the results nor experience can be compared to professional whitening. Over-the-counter kits can’t compete with professional whitening because drugstore treatment options:

  • Have weaker gels and are less concentrated than professional formulas
  • Do not have trays customized to your teeth, causing discomfort
  • Can cause sensitivity because they are not personalized for you
  • Have formulas that can damage your enamel instead of strengthening it

Dr. Todd offers the safest and most effective method of brightening your smile. He will talk to you about the results you want to ensure you love your smile. Teeth whitening is a great option whether you just want to slightly refresh or you’re looking to drastically change the shade of your teeth.

At-Home or In-Office: The Choice is Yours

We offer both in-home and in-office whitening options so that you can decide your preferred method of treatment. Ultradent will lighten your smile by several shades, no matter the option you choose.

If you want to lighten your teeth a few shades, at-home teeth whitening is a good choice and is generally a bit more affordable. Or, if you have more pronounced stains or yellowing teeth, in-office teeth whitening is the quickest option for big results.

If your stained teeth are bothering you, come ask us about our convenient whitening treatments. It doesn’t take long to see the results you’ve always wanted. Contact us today at Butler Smiles Dental Care to schedule your consultation.
