What Causes Teeth to Stain?
Why would you want or need teeth whitening from our West Palm Beach cosmetic dentist? Why do our teeth darken? There are actually many factors:
- Coffee, tea, wine, and dark colas are commonly known to stain teeth. Think of it this way: If you are afraid that a beverage will stain your white tablecloth, it will also stain your teeth!
- Smoking. Just another reason to quit already!
- Excess fluoridation as a child.
- Early/in-utero tetracycline use.
- Dental trauma. When the nerve and blood vessels inside your teeth are damaged from trauma, the nerves can die, leaving a resulting dark color.
- Age. As we age, the enamel (the top layer of our teeth) naturally thins out, and the secondary tooth layer (dentin) begins to show through with its characteristic yellow color.
- Dentinogenesis imperfecta is a rare genetic disorder where all teeth appear blue-grey or yellow-brown.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Teeth Whitening?
If you are dissatisfied with the color of your teeth and want to do something about it, there is a good chance you’ll be considered a candidate for teeth whitening. However, a complete oral examination must first occur, in which Dr. Asinmaz will look to see if any existing tooth decay, cavities, or gum disease exists. If so, these will need to be treated before having your teeth whitened.
Types of Teeth Whitening
At Palm Beach Dental Excellence, we are pleased to offer two convenient options for our patients: In-office teeth whitening with Epic X Diode Laser Whitening and take-home teeth whitening. The choice of which one to pursue is yours, but our team will help to better explain which one might be best for your needs.
Take-Home Teeth Whitening
We will capture impressions of your smile so that custom trays can be crafted to whiten your teeth. When ready, we’ll also provide you with professional-grade bleaching gel that will penetrate the enamel of your teeth and target intrinsic and extrinsic stains. You should expect to see the results in about two weeks.
In-Office Teeth Whitening
Using the Epic X Diode Laser Whitening system, Dr. Asinmaz and our team can generate results much faster than other similar products. This unique laser can produce a whiter, brighter smile in as little as 20 minutes and enhance tooth enamel by 6-12 shades. Once the whitening gel is applied to the teeth, the laser is used to activate the gel and eliminate stains.
Understanding the Cost of Teeth Whitening
It’s no surprise that professionally administered teeth whitening is more costly than the products you can purchase in the store. This is often because the quality you receive from your cosmetic dentist in West Palm Beach, whether as part of a take-home whitening kit or in-office treatment, is much higher. However, with the exceptional results you’re virtually guaranteed to enjoy, in addition to the shorter treatment time, many patients agree that investing in teeth whitening from Dr. Asinmaz is worthwhile.
