Your teeth can lose their color for a number of reasons, like:
Your teeth also lose their color naturally as you age. The hard, outer layer (your enamel) gets thinner over time, while the soft inner layer (your dentin) turns yellow. The thinning enamel allows more of the yellowing dentin to show through, which can make for a discolored smile.
Dash Dental Spa offers a few different types of whitening. First, teeth whitening can be split into two categories: vital and non-vital.
Non-vital whitening is performed on a tooth that’s lost its color after having a root canal treatment. Your dentist drills into the discolored tooth and applies a whitening agent inside that helps the tooth return to its normal color and blend back into the rest of your smile.
Vital whitening involves applying a bleaching agent made from hydrogen peroxide to the surfaces of your teeth. Dash Dental Spa offers two types of vital whitening: in-office whitening and take-home whitening.
In-office whitening brightens your smile in a single, hour-long office visit. Your dentist uses special tools to protect your lips, cheeks, and gums. Then, they carefully apply a bleaching agent to the surfaces of your teeth.
Then, they shine a special blue light on your teeth to help the whitening agent penetrate your enamel and break up deeper stains. At Dash Dental Spa, you can relax and watch Netflix during your entire treatment and have a paraffin wax spa treatment performed on your hands, after which you leave the office with a noticeably whiter and brighter smile.
Dash Dental Spa also offers take-home whitening trays so that you can whiten from the comfort of your home. Your dentist uses an impression of your smile to make your whitening trays, which fit snugly on your teeth and hold a bleaching agent in place on your teeth.
You wear them on your teeth for a prescribed amount of time each night and enjoy a more beautiful and radiant smile within a matter of weeks.
There are a few different things you can do to keep your smile radiant after your teeth-whitening treatment, like:
