What ever happened to the bright white teeth that we were born with? Teeth fade and dull and can get stained and badly discolored over time, luckily Melrose Dental Associates, Peekskill best dentist has remedies to bring back the white smile you want. There are three basic reasons that teeth dull and lose color. Extrinsic staining comes from eating and drinking foods such as coffee, tea, wine, sauces or smoking that leave stains on the outside of the teeth. Intrinsic staining occurs after the use of certain medications such as antibiotics, an injury to the tooth or the use of too much fluoride during childhood. As we age our teeth dull naturally due to years of use and the wearing down of the teeth enamel that reveals more of the inner dentin layer.
Our Peekskill best dentist offers our patients two methods to whiten their teeth, either in our office or in the convenience of their own home. Our dentist will fabricate a set of custom trays from impressions made of your mouth. These trays hold a professional strength bleaching solution snugly and evenly against the teeth with the proper amount of solution. It is these custom trays and the professional strength bleaching solution that makes our home whitening system much more effective than the one-size-fits-all bleaching kits available in drugstores. Our patient’s will use the trays for two or three hours a day for two or three weeks depending on the degree of discoloration of the teeth. The procedure will whiten the teeth several shades.
In our office we offer an innovative new whitening procedure that whitens them in just one session. Peekskill best dentist applies a special whitening gel to the teeth and is activated by a special laser. The gel is left on the teeth for 15 minutes and is then rinsed off. The process is repeated two or three times during the hour. After the procedure patients’ teeth can be up to eight shades whiter from our in-office whitening. Give us a call and see how to get your old white teeth back.
