At our local office, we are known for improving the appearance of our dental patients’ smiles and overall confidence in their smile with our teeth whitening procedures. After cleaning your teeth, we can complete this procedure in a relatively short amount of time. You may want teeth whitening for a special event or just because you want a brighter, more beautiful smile.
People often have their teeth whitened as way to boost confidence in their smile. As people age, it is common for teeth to yellow or become dull. This is a very normal occurrence with age and what a person eats or drinks plays a big role in this as well. Repeated contact from drinking coffee, wine, tea, etc. can stain your teeth. Eating foods that contain food coloring or smoking can also stain or discolor your teeth. Brushing immediately after eating and drinking can help prevent this from happening but this usually isn’t an option for most people, and it wouldn’t be enough to remove the risk entirely. Fortunately, stained and discolored teeth is not a life sentence.
The teeth whitening procedure itself causes little to no discomfort, and it is a relatively easy procedure to complete. Before Dr. Miller begins, we recommend that patients schedule a dental exam with our Chesterfield, MO dental office to examine your teeth and gums to make sure they are healthy. This ensures teeth whitening is an appropriate action to take.
We recommend that patients have their teeth whitened before completing other dental procedures. Most of the materials that are used in dental restorations or for cosmetic purposes are resistant to stains and whitening. For example, a dental crown won’t bleach or stain and will keep its initial coloring. When a veneer, crown, bridge, or implant is created in a dental lab, they are created to match the shade of the existing teeth surrounding it.
If the surrounding teeth shades are yellow, the restorations will be created in a yellow shade. If the teeth surrounding are white, the restoration will also be. So the timing of the teeth whitening procedure is crucial if you plan to get restoration work done. If you live in the Chesterfield, MO area and are interested in a dental restoration, schedule your teeth whitening procedure first.
