Teeth whitening is one of the easiest ways to improve your smile in Owensboro. It is quick, affordable, and non-invasive. Though some Owensboro cosmetic dentistry patients experience short-term sensitivity, most experience no tooth whitening pain at all.
If you have looked into Philpot teeth whitening, you probably already know the basics. The one thing they have in common is that they use a solution containing peroxide to remove the stains that have settled in the natural microscopic cracks in your tooth enamel.
There are many DIY teeth bleaching products available in Tell City, IN and it seems like new ones appear every time you visit the toothpaste aisle at your Owensboro grocery or Hartford drug store.
These Philpot tooth whitening strips and tooth whitening pens can sometimes whiten your teeth a few shades, but the peroxide concentration is much lower than the whitening solutions used in Owensboro cosmetic dental offices. It may not be effective enough for your tooth stains.
Tooth whitening offered at Hartford mall kiosks is risky, also. Most of these teeth whitening businesses in Kentucky have no professional oversight and the employees have little dental training. (Except instruction on how to take advantage of customer naivety.)
David Thompson and Vicki Frey recommend that you use extreme caution when considering a take-home Owensboro tooth whitener. If you have tooth decay, gum recession, crowns, or veneers, you definitely need professional guidance.
The portion of your teeth below the gumline, if exposed, may respond differently to tooth whitener. In addition, the peroxide solution does not noticeably whiten crowns and veneers. If you use a DIY tooth whitener on teeth with extensive porcelain restorations, you should probably hope it doesn’t whiten too much – you may end up with a two- or three-tone smile!
Even though Owensboro teeth whitening seems uncomplicated, your teeth deserve a professional opinion. After all, we are talking about teeth here. You can’t fix an uneven teeth whitening result like you can a bad hair-coloring job.
