Did you know that if you want a whiter and brighter smile that your dentist family can help? Of all the different cosmetic treatments that are offered by a family dentistry office, teeth whitening remains the most popular. This is likely because this process is much less expensive than any other cosmetic procedure; however, it has one of the most dramatic differences in your overall appearance.

You can purchase teeth whitening products at the store or have the process completed by a dentist greeley co. A number of people choose the professional whitening option due to the fact that it is the most effective and fastest way to actually whiten your teeth since the actual bleaching materials that are available at a dentist’s office are much stronger than what is currently available in a store.

There are two options for professional whitening: it can be performed at your actual dental office or it can be completed at home, under the supervision of your dentist.

When you opt to have the procedure completed at the dentist’s office, the selected whitening product is going to be applied directly to your teeth. It will contain concentrations of bleach that can be up to 35 percent. Some products will be accelerated with the use of heat or light. The main advantage of this method is that you will see instant results. Your greeley dentist will likely provide you with a comparison chart when the process is complete so you can see how much whiter your teeth appear after the treatment.

If you opt to have the teeth whitening completed under the supervision of a dentist then you will receive customized trays that you will wear at night. You will also be provided with a tooth whitening gel that contains a lower concentration of the bleaching agent. This mouthpiece, which has been customized for your teeth will ensure maximum contact in between your teeth and the actual whitening gel. The primary advantages offered by these trays are the fact that they can be used at your convenience and they are more affordable than in office whitening treatments.

No matter what you choose, when you turn to your dentist for teeth whitening, you will have much better and more efficient results than the over the counter products. You should talk with your dentist in order to find the best option for your particular needs. This will help you achieve the bright and white smile that you want.
