TEETH WHITENING
Toss the Whitening Strips
Coffee, tea, smoking, soft drinks, wine and just plain aging can all contribute to stained teeth. If you find yourself unwilling to open up and smile due to stained teeth, then teeth whitening is a good choice for restoring confidence in your smile.
You can buy over the counter whitening strips and try to wear them so that they're not noticeable, or you can spend an easy hour at Dr. Villadiego's dental office in Los Angeles for a gentle in-office whitening treatment.
Things to Know About Teeth Whitening
- It can take just one hour to make your teeth up to eight shades whiter when you visit our Chatsworth, Los Angeles dentist office.
- Whitening toothpastes don't use bleaching agents, but rather abrasive substances that scrub off minor surface stains. They are no substitute for a professional teeth whitening procedure.
- During the procedure, your gums are protected and a bleaching solution is applied to your teeth.
- A specific wavelength of light is applied to the treated teeth to boost the effect and get your teeth whiter.
- A shade guide will show you exactly how white your teeth are both before and after your teeth whitening treatment.
- At Dr. Bernie's Los Angeles cosmetic dentist office, you can relax with music, a movie or a back massage during your teeth whitening treatment.
- To extend the effects of your teeth whitening, maintain good dental hygiene and either avoid dark colored beverages or use a straw to drink them.
