Like hair, eyes, and skin have different colors, teeth naturally come in different shades. While you may be born with bright, white teeth, others may have slightly yellow teeth. Even so, aging, poor oral hygiene, excessive fluoride exposure during the developmental stages of life, and indulgence in stain-causing substances like soda and dark wine may change the appearance of your pearly whites.
Want to get rid of your stain-filled smile? You can always do so by relying on a safe and painless procedure. Professional teeth whitening from Proffitt Dentistry of Maryville, Tennessee, can lift years of tooth discoloration with comfort and efficiency.
First off, teeth whitening is extremely safe when done by a professional. However, when you try DIY or use amateurs to lighten your smile, the results can be disastrous — it could leave you with permanently damaged teeth.
Typical teeth whitening often leaves you with minimal teeth sensitivity that fades off after a few days. However, when you use ill-fitting trays, harsh products, or leave the bleaching agent on your teeth for too long, you could experience higher, uncomfortable levels of sensitivity.
Unsafe teeth whitening can cause:
Don’t be discouraged by the above risks if you want to whiten your smile. Teeth whitening done by Dr. William Proffitt and the team is safe, effective, and pain-free.
When we want to whiten teeth, we don’t go straight into the procedure. Dr. Proffitt examines your teeth to rule out cavities and gum disease that may complicate the whitening procedure. Next, if it’s been a while since you got a dental cleaning, we clean your teeth to eliminate plaque and tartar that may impede the effectiveness of the teeth whitening treatment.
Whitening trays are convenient — you can brighten your teeth from anywhere. All you need is to wear the trays for at least 15-30 minutes a day, and within two weeks, the results will be evident — perfectly white teeth with little to no sensitivity!
