Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental treatment that removes years of stains, improving the brightness and appearance of your smile. Unfortunately, many foods and drinks contain colored pigments that discolor teeth over time. Teeth whitening is a safe, effective procedure that you can undergo at our dental office. You may also opt for at-home options that utilize whitening strips. Our bleaching product penetrates the enamel and starts the oxidation process, transforming molecules to reflect less or no light, making teeth appear colorless and white.
At 7 North Dental, we offer best-in-class teeth whitening in Phoenix to transform your smile. Please schedule an appointment with Dr. Chadwick Brady to make your teeth a few shades whiter, ensuring lasting, natural-looking results.
Why Should I Choose Professional Teeth Whitening?
Here are some interesting points before you decide to visit our dental office for teeth whitening treatments:
- Our dentist employs a whitening gel with significantly higher strength, which leads to quicker results.
- You will receive custom whitening options from our team instead of one-size-fits-all products that may need to be fixed.
- Safety is a top priority at our clinic, and we will help you avoid any sensitivity or other issues during whitening.
How Does Teeth Whitening Work?
You'll find a softer layer known as dentin beneath the resilient outer enamel layer that shields your teeth. Staining and discoloration can occur within both these layers of your teeth. Products like whitening toothpaste or mouth rinses can't reach the dentin layer.
The whitening gel contains either carbamide peroxide or hydrogen peroxide, an active ingredient that can reach both your enamel and dentin layer. Applying this gel breaks down the molecules discoloring your teeth. The result is a whiter, brighter smile!
What Are My Options for Teeth Whitening?
Our dentist in Phoenix offers two convenient options for teeth whitening that will achieve the results you want for your smile. Depending on your needs and lifestyle, choose an in-office treatment that will deliver immediate results or a take-home system that allows you to update your smile whenever you like.
In-Office Whitening:
- We begin by enclosing your soft tissues and gums in a layer of protection. This prevents any injuries from occurring due to excess leakage of whitening gel.
- Then, we'll apply a high-strength brightening gel and give now is the ideal time to set.
- We finish with a fluoride treatment designed to reduce any sensitivity the whitening gel may cause.
Most patients report that their in-office treatment results in teeth ranging from six to ten shades lighter than before. This option is ideal for patients with hectic schedules who need quick results or may have a big event such as a wedding or vacation.
Take-Home Whitening Trays:
Patients who opt for a take-home whitening system will receive custom-made plastic whitening trays, which we create after taking impressions of their teeth. We will provide you with high-strength gel and show you how to apply it to your trays safely.
Most patients achieve their desired results by applying whitening trays daily on teeth for one to two weeks. Subsequently, you can acquire extra whitening gel from our office whenever you wish to brighten up your smile.
