Did you know that whiter teeth are at the top of more Americans’ wish lists than any other cosmetic dental treatment? The American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry reveals that no other procedure has the same universal appeal as teeth bleaching, so we are pleased to offer a professional-strength alternative to whitening strips and drugstore whitening products. Here are three compelling reasons to consider professional teeth whitening over so-so whitening kits from the toothpaste aisle.
Long-term Cost Savings
Drugstore whitening kits may be priced to sell, but the long-term costs tend to be higher. Most kits have enough product for one or two touch ups, but after that you must pay the price again and again. The results rarely last as long as professional results, which means you’ll need more frequent touch ups. The great news? Once you purchase a kit from your dentist, you will receive complimentary refills for life.
Comfort and Customization
We often hear complaints from patients who tried over-the-counter bleaching products but were unsatisfied with the results. For many, the problem was a matter of comfort. Pre-assembled kits usually contain one size of whitening tray apiece for the top and bottom arches. For someone who has a smaller or larger than average mouth or wider arch, these trays are extremely uncomfortable. Poor fit also makes for uneven whitening, which appears unnatural. On the other hand, our kits are custom made to fit your teeth precisely.
Fast, Dramatic Improvements
Professional teeth bleaching offers optimal whitening in only 14 days. Most patients who use our home whitening trays see noticeable improvements in the color of their teeth within a matter of days. The results develop quickly enough that you can tell they’re working, but not so fast that the change appears unnatural. The best part? You can whiten your teeth by several shades within the privacy and comfort of your home.
