Various Teeth Whitening Procedures

If you have recently looked in the mirror and not seen the smile that you would like, you are not alone. Almost everyone is going to have mild to severe discoloration on their teeth at some point in their life. Luckily, teeth whitening procedures are more affordable, effective, and comfortable than ever. Here is a quick glimpse at some of the causes of tooth discoloration and the treatments that may be available to patients looking to transform their smile.

Not everyone is going to be a perfect candidate for teeth bleaching or whitening. When stains are below the enamel and dentin, it is often going to require an alternative treatment, such as porcelain veneers, in order to improve ones smile.

Fortunately, the more common form of discoloration is on the surface of ones teeth. This type of staining can be due to improper hygiene habits or the foods that we all consume. Our cosmetic dentist in Los Angeles is proud to be able to offer our patients the Zoom whitening system in order to remove these stains. With a peroxide-based solution, patients will see their teeth as much as 8 shades brighter in under an hour.
