Tooth
Whitening Raleigh NC - Consultations |
|
| |
During
a consultation in our office a dental provider
can tell you whether whitening procedures
would be effective for you. Whiteners may
not correct all types of discoloration. For
example, yellow-ish hued teeth will probably
bleach well, brownish-colored teeth may bleach
less well, and grayish-hued teeth may not
bleach well at all. In such a case it may
be better to whiten your other teeth and then
to place veneers on the grayish-hued teeth
to enhance your smile. Likewise, bleaching
may not enhance your smile if you have had
bonding or tooth-colored fillings placed in
your front teeth. The whitener will not affect
the color of these materials, and they will
stand out in your newly whitened smile. In
these cases, you may want to investigate other
options, like porcelain veneers or dental
bonding. |

Take-home
bleaching solutions are products containing
peroxide(s), which actually bleach the tooth
enamel. These products typically rely on a
percentage (10%, 16%, 22%) of carbamide peroxide
as the bleaching agent. Our whiteners come
in a gel and are placed in a mouth guard that
we custom make for you. We will tailor a usage
regimen based on the goals that are set in
your treatment plan. |

In

In
office bleaching is offered in the office
of Dr. Michael T. Jones & Associates and
initially takes about one hour. During chair
side bleaching a protective gel is applied
to your gums along with a rubber shield to
protect the oral soft tissues. A bleaching
agent is then applied to the teeth, and a
special arch light will be used to enhance
the action of the agent. Using our unique
whitening system no heat is generated which
could cause damage to healthy tooth structures.
A one hour appoint is guaranteed to whiten
minimally 2 shades or you will be given your
2nd appointment at no additional charge. |
