Advantages of Teeth Whitening

How many of us get a confidence boost when a stranger gives us a compliment? Have you ever paid attention to how much of a positive effect this has on your self-esteem? The same applies to teeth whitening. Teeth-whitening is an excellent way to restore the natural color of your teeth or even make them whiter than your natural color if you would like. Here at Bensalem Family Dentistry Dr. Michael Eisenbrock, DDS can help you do just that.

With all of the lifestyle habits and environmental factors that have the ability to stain our teeth on a daily basis, even proper maintenance sometimes leave them a little dull. Fortunately, through our tray whitening system, your pearly whites can revive their shine. In addition, teeth-whitening can also take years off of your appearance. This is because as we age, over time, our teeth darken and can become yellow, brown, or even develop a green or gray tint (which may be due to heredity and/or eating habits). Your smile speaks volumes about who you are and leaves an everlasting impression, so it’s only natural that you want it to be as radiant as possible.

How to Avoid Staining Teeth

Keeping our teeth white is a top priority on many of our cosmetic to-do lists. In addition to our professional teeth whitening system, at Bensalem Dentistry of Bensalem, PA, we also want to offer advice to our patients for keeping teeth white!

At Bensalem Dentistry, we have a professional teeth whitening system that is great for kick-starting whiter teeth. But there are tips for keeping teeth white after a whitening procedure, or even for whitening before a procedure!

Rinsing the mouth after consuming dark liquids and foods will help avoid debris from staining teeth. Avoiding dark foods and liquids is best, but that is not always possible. Using a straw to drink dark liquids can help. Also, make sure to brush and floss your teeth three times per day to remove plaque that can trap stain causing debris close to the enamel.

When choosing toothpaste, make sure to choose one that is not too abrasive. In addition, do not bear down on the teeth too harshly when brushing. Using abrasive toothpaste and brushing techniques will actually wear down enamel, allowing darker colored dentin to show through. This also makes teeth prone to cavities.

Keeping teeth white and bright is not as hard as it seems with some minor changes throughout your day.

Customized Take-Home Tray Whitening System

Bright, bold pearly whites are lovely to look at but can be hard to achieve. Over time, our teeth start to discolor, and certain foods and drinks can make it worse. Bensalem Dentistry located in Bensalem, PA offers our patients who are looking to whiten their teeth a customized take-home tray whitening system for fast and effective results.

What makes our tray whitening system work so well is that the trays are completely customized to fit your teeth. Picture the trays like Invisalign aligners; they hug your teeth to provide the most effective whitening process. This is achieved by taking impressions of your teeth to create an exact replica.

For a sparkling smile, you will put the whitening gel we provide into the trays and wear them for a short period of time over the course of a few days. Results depend on the current shade of your teeth and how much whiter you would like your smile to be. Our customized tray whitening system often produces smiles that are four to eight shades whiter.

If you are interested in turning up the wattage of your smile, contact us today to see if our customized tray whitening system will work for you. To schedule at our Bensalem, PA dental practice, call us at (215) 638-9952 or visit the Bensalem Dentistry website, www.bensalemdentistry.com.
