Tooth bleaching
involves the placement of a bleaching solution on the teeth to eliminate
stains and discoloration. The solution is held in place by a custom-made,
see-through tray that fits over the teeth - much like a mouthpiece worn by
a professional boxer.
Bleaching is a safe, effective and relatively easy means of producing a
whiter smile.
At-Home-Bleaching provides for home use (not to be confused with
over-the-counter bleaching products available in your local drug store).
The difference between treatments are the strength of the whitening agents
and the time it takes to get effective results. At-home bleaching may take
up to four weeks of regular use.
Sensitive teeth, or those that are chipped, eroded or weakened by
cavities, should be repaired or protected before they are bleached.
