Why should I consider dentally supervised whitening treatments?

 

Not only are the results much quicker than home whitening kits, they are also generally safer. Not all tooth whitening kits are approved by the American Dental Association and that is for a good reason. All whitening kits are not created equally and it is important to remember that when you are seeking to brighten your smile.   Whitening kits come in several different forms and strengths.   It is crucial the kit that is best suited for the individual needs, problem and clinical prognosis be used.   Damage to teeth and soft tissue can occur if the wrong kit is used.  Great results are unlikely unless the proper kit is used.

You may be surprised to know that dentally supervised whitening treatments are not for everyone.

So what can I expect from dentally supervised tooth whitening treatments?

 

Typically a single supervised whitening treatment will whiten your teeth between 5-10 shades. An average treatment will take only 45 minutes. Some dentists also dispense extremely high-quality home whitening kits as well. With the dentally dispensed kits you take home, you can expect a more powerful whitening treatment than you would typically receive from an over the counter kit.

 

What happens during a dentally supervised whitening treatment?

 

There are a few steps to the whitening treatment you receive in your dentist's office. Typically your dentist will apply an extra strength whitening treatment to your teeth and then they will have you sit under special lightening for 10-15 minutes to help activate the treatment. You may repeat this process up to three times in a single visit to achieve optimum whitening results.
