Teeth whitening is one of the most sought-after cosmetic dental treatments, known for its ability to significantly enhance the aesthetics of your smile. At Tolland Hill Family Dental, we offer advanced teeth whitening solutions, including GLO and KöR Whitening Systems, to effectively brighten your teeth and boost your self-confidence.
Common Causes of Teeth Stains
Over time, teeth can lose their natural whiteness due to various factors:
- Food and Beverages: Chromagens in coffee, tea, red wine, and certain foods contribute to staining.
- Aging: As we age, tooth enamel absorbs color molecules, leading to discoloration.
- Tobacco Use: Smoking and chewing tobacco are major contributors to teeth staining.
Good Candidates for Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening is ideal for individuals with:
- Healthy Teeth and Gums: Free from major dental issues.
- Tea, Coffee, and Tobacco Users: Those whose lifestyle habits have contributed to tooth discoloration.
- Innate Discoloration: Natural yellowing or discoloration of teeth.
It’s important to note that restorations like crowns, veneers, and fillings will not be affected by whitening treatments.
What to Expect After Teeth Whitening
Post-whitening, some tooth sensitivity is normal. You may be advised to avoid pigmented beverages for 24 hours to prevent re-staining. To maintain results, an at-home whitening kit may be provided for later use.
GLO Whitening System
The GLO Whitening System, available for both in-office and at-home treatment, is designed to minimize sensitivity:
- Innovative Technology: Combines LED light with heat resistors in a closed-system mouthpiece.
- Effective Gel: Activated by controlled warming heat, the professional-strength GLO Whitening Gel delivers impressive results.
- Award-Winning System: Recognized with Thomas Edison Awards, the GLO system is acclaimed for its effectiveness and minimal sensitivity.
KöR Whitening System
The KöR Whitening System is known for addressing sensitivity issues commonly associated with teeth whitening:
- High-Quality Gel: Refrigerated from manufacture to application, resulting in a highly effective, low-sensitivity gel.
- Chemical-Free: No stabilizers in the gel, allowing for exceptional performance when applied to warm teeth.
- No Light or Lasers Needed: The effectiveness of the KöR system doesn’t rely on lights or lasers.
