If you are interested in whiter, brighter teeth, never before has there been such a variety of options available to patients as there is today. There are bleaching systems and cosmetic restorative procedures that can offer the oportunity for whiter smiles to everyone.
CAREFULLY CONSIDER WHETHER BLEACHING IS A GOOD OPTION.
Patients who have sensitive teeth should consider using the milder solutions for bleaching, since the in-office techniques may cause additional sensititvity. In addition, patients who have very thin teeth may find that the bleaching techniques, while they may lighten the teeth, may show more of a grey translucency after the bleaching. Patients who have multiple crowns or white fillings on their front teeth should know that these types of restorations will not bleach with the materials available and as a result, they might need to consider the future costs of replacing crowns, doing veneers or replacing the white composite fillings in their front teeth.
HOW SOON WILL I SEE RESULTS AND WHAT KIND OF RESULTS CAN I EXPECT FROM THE TEETH WHITENING PROCEDURES?
Everyone responds differently in the length of time it takes to see results. This is why it is important for you to carefully discuss in advance with your dentist what the causes of the discolorations are. For most people, with the at-home bleaching techiniques, you should see results within about four to seven days. For the in-office techniques, typically, results are seen within an hour. For people with intrinsic staining (from fluorosis, tetracycline staining or tooth trauma inside the pulp), the results may take longer and it may be necessary to have a few sessions, or discuss other options for the more intense stains. Typically these are the streaks or the purplish discolorations that are harder to lighten. Patients with intense streaks in their teeth will find that the intensity fades, however, it is almost impossible to toatlly remove the streaks, especially using only the home bleaching techniques.
HOW MUCH SHOULD I EXPECT TO PAY FOR THE PROCESS?
Prices vary depending upon the type of procedure that you and your doctor select to achieve the best result. It is fairly typical to see prices ranging from $325 to $850 depending upon the procedures that are best suited for you.
