Your dentist can whiten teeth dramatically using various forms of hydrogen peroxide. One form, carbamide peroxide, is most often used in the form of a gel, and placed into a special tray that is custom-fitted to your teeth. The tray is worn in the mouth for one to four hours per treatment. When in contact with the teeth,the carbamide peroxide releases oxygenthat releases the stain on your teeth. This process is safe and effective with only a few temporary side effects. This treatment can be applied at home under periodic supervision by your dentist. Dentist-Assisted
Bleaching utilizes highly concentrated carbamide peroxide that is brushed
directly onto the teeth,then a custom-fitted bleaching tray is placed.
The high concentration of peroxide can cause irritation to the surrounding
gum tissue and should only be applied by a professional. Most often,
this procedure is used followed by addtional treatments applied at-home by
the patient. Power Bleaching utilizes highly concentrated hydrogen
peroxide in a carefully applied solution. A heat or light source is
used to activate or accelerate the whitening process. This treatment
creates the most dramatic results and is used for people with severe
discoloration. Treatments can last seven to ten years, depending on
your habits. Ask your dentist to evaluate your smile and decide
which treatment is best for you!
