What do you Know About Teeth Whitening??

With prom, graduation, and wedding season just around the corner, the photo opportunities will be plenty, and the resulting photos will be priceless. Teeth whitening is the most widely requested cosmetic dentistry operation, according to DentCruise, in our selfie-crazed, photo-sharing society.

Different Types of Teeth Whitening

Teeth Whitening trends that are making their way across social media and ads demonstrate how simple a range of over-the-counter solutions may be. However, there are other alternative options. We’ll go over a few options briefly to assist you to decide what kind of whitening products to use.

Teeth Whitening at Home

• Whitening Toothpaste: Whitening toothpaste brightens your teeth using a variety of procedures. To polish the teeth and/or give a reflecting appearance that removes surface stains from teeth, baking soda, abrasives, or chemicals are employed.
• Over-the-Counter Teeth Whitening Kits: Teeth whitening kits may comprise strips, trays, and/or brushes that allow you to leave a substance on your teeth for longer than toothpaste. These kits typically include peroxide, which bleaches your teeth to remove stains that are deeper than surface stains.
• Natural Remedies: These range from eating healthier to following a current trend to avoiding teeth-staining meals and/or sugary and acidic drinks. If you smoke or use tobacco, those are the main culprits, so quit for whiter teeth.

Teeth Whitening At The Dentist

When you have your teeth professionally whitened, there will be no gaps in the coverage area (as is common with whitening strips), nor will they be too bleached or cause gum damage (which can happen with in-home self-treatments).

• Take-Home Kits: Many dentists provide at-home teeth whitening services. A ready-made kit or custom-made bleach trays are two options. While some of these look like over-the-counter whitening kits, they usually include a higher concentration of bleach.
• Zoom Teeth Whitening: This process, which is only offered in dental offices, whitens your teeth by using a 25% hydrogen peroxide gel in conjunction with a specific lamp.

Concluding, you must now be well aware of the type of teeth whitening products that are used to give you a sparkling smile!!
