Before Whitening		After Whitening

Tooth whitening (also known as Tooth Bleaching) in the form of a home kit has been available since about 1986.  This involves the making of a custom fit tray to hold a special whitening gel around each tooth.  It is highly recommended that you have a dentist supervise the whitening process, which includes an examination prior to the treatment, the preparation of the custom tray (as opposed to an off the shelf boil and fit tray) and a dentist provided gel agent (several times stronger than an off the shelf brand). The results are more predictable with a custom tray and the proper gel strength for your individual case.

Stain build-up on teeth is generally caused by the foods and drinks we consume; such as, coffee, dark teas, dark colored sodas, chocolates, dark wines, and other dark and acidic foods.  Smoking is a major contributor to stained teeth. Other causes include: A.) being born with discolored teeth (often due to medication taken by mothers during pregnancy), B.) genetics, or C.) childhood diets. Whitening (bleaching the teeth) can lighten the color of your teeth. Generally, whitening will provide the color a patient desires; however, there are times when the desired color cannot be obtained by traditional whitening methods and bonding treatment or veneers will be required to obtain the desired color.
