Many patients desire a brighter smile and in-office teeth whitening is a great way to get there. There are a few things that set in-office whitening apart from the many at-home whitening options available for purchase by the public. Firstly is the expertise of our staff that will be taking you through the entire process. For any whitening procedure, it is important to keep the bleaching agent on the teeth, and away from the gums. At Landover Dental, our staff will place a barrier around your gums to prevent any possible irritation. Since this preventative barrier is not available in at-home kits, the bleaching agent in those kits is not as strong as what we are able to offer in-office. That means that you can also expect a better outcome when choosing in-office whitening.
All whitening procedures are only capable of brightening natural teeth. Dental fillings or crowns will not be changed from this procedure.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can't I just get a dental cleaning?
While dental cleanings are always advised prior to whitening, cleanings only remove stains on the surface of the teeth. The tooth whitening solution used here penetrates the surface of the teeth and whitens from the inside out.
Will whitening work for me?
The results of teeth whitening vary from person to person. Teeth whitening generally works best on teeth stained yellow-brown than on gray stains.
Will whitening hurt my teeth?
Most patients do not report any pain, but some do experience some sensitivity following teeth whitening. Our staff will monitor your sensitivity during the treatment and make adjustments as needed for your specific needs.
