Teeth Whitening in Carmel, IN

As we get older, our teeth will start to change color and get darker. While most of this involves wear and tear as we age, the food that we eat and drink along with habits such as smoking can also affect the color of our smiles. Tea, coffee, red wine, are just some of the most common culprits for darker looking teeth because of their strong colors. Tooth decay and other dental problems can also affect our teeth, causing them to turn grey or develop spots. Nobody really has perfectly white teeth. That’s why a lot of us turn to our dentists to have our smile’s professional whitened instead.

Professional teeth whitening at your Indiana top cosmetic dentist’s office is the best and safest method for whitening your smile. Using a special bleaching agent, your dentist can improve your smile by several shades brighter while making sure that the rest of your mouth, including your tongue and cheeks, remain safe during the procedure. This way, you can whiten your teeth in just a single visit, something that you can’t duplicate when using over-the-counter whitening products.

While OTC whitening gels and pastes do work, you’ll need to use them every day for months at a time in order to see any improvements in your smile. At most, these products can only brighten your smile by a shade or two, so they’re not recommended for people who have teeth that have darker stains. You’ll also have to be careful when using these products as they could cause harm to your gums and mouth. While the bleaching agents in these items are weaker than those used by your dentist, you won’t have professional supervision during at-home treatment. Improper use can cause sensitivity in your teeth or even irritation in your gums.

If you want to whiten your teeth in a safe and effective manner, it’s best to schedule an appointment with Dr. David Smith of Really Smile Dental. He’ll be able to examine your teeth and recommend the best whitening treatment for improving your smile.
