Teeth Whitening: Do It Right

Lafayette dentist teeth whitening

As the years go by, our teeth naturally lose their luster. Dark colored foods and drinks speed up the process, but even people who avoid coffee, wine and cola are not immune to yellow or gray teeth. Want to brighten up your smile? Have you considered tooth whitening? Teeth whitening at Boulder County Smiles in Lafayette CO is one of the quickest and most affordable ways to look younger and more attractive.

Does Teeth Whitening Hurt?

Though some teeth whitening patients experience a little short-term sensitivity, most experience no pain at all.

There are several different methods for whitening teeth, but each uses a solution containing peroxide to remove the stains that have accumulated in the microscopic cracks in your tooth enamel.

DIY Whitening Products
First of all, commercially-available strips, mouthwashes and paint-on whiteners use a lower concentration of whitening agent than in-office methods. They rarely remove all of the stains on your enamel.

If you have gum disease, cavities, crowns, dental bonding, or porcelain veneers, we recommend visiting us first for a teeth whitening consultation. You are always better off having teeth whitening performed by a professional.

Don’t assume that teeth whitening offered at mall kiosks is risk-free. The industry is largely unregulated and the staff often have little dental training. Do you really want to take chances with your smile?

At Boulder County Smiles in Lafayette CO, we provide professional teeth whitening. We also offer dental implants, and treat conditions like sleep apnea. Give us a call today.
