Teeth Whitening
Achieve a brighter smile
Your teeth can become darkened or stained from several different factors, but treatment and prevention can help you achieve that shining smile.
Whether you're looking to freshen up your smile for a big event or you want to confidently show off your smile, our team is here to help. Visit us for a teeth whitening appointment.
What to expect from a teeth whitening treatment
At an in-office teeth whitening treatment, we will start with applying a whitening gel to the surface of your teeth. We'll then activate the gel by shining an LED light for a specific amount of time, depending on your teeth and desired results.
All teeth are unique and can respond differently to whitening treatments. Fillings, crowns, and veneers can’t be whitened during this process, but they can be replaced to match the new shade of your teeth.
What causes discolouration?
Stains and discolouration can be categorized into three different types: Extrinsic, intrinsic, and age-related.
Extrinsic Discolouration
Extrinsic discolouration are stains that affect only the surface of the tooth or the tooth enamel. This typically comes from:
- Food such as red sauces or chocolate
- Beverages such as coffee, red wine, and tea
- Tobacco in the form of cigarettes or chewing tobacco
Intrinsic Discolouration
Intrinsic stains are caused from within the tooth and look more grey in colour. These stains can come from:
- Certain medications
- An injury to the tooth
- Tooth decay
- Excessive amounts of fluoride
- Genetics
Age-Related Discolouration
Aging can cause your enamel to wear down, allowing staining or yellowing to occur. Age-related discolouration can also come from a combination of extrinsic and intrinsic factors.
Maintaining your teeth
After a teeth-whitening treatment, your teeth are still prone to becoming stained or discoloured. By practicing good oral hygiene, you can help maintain your results.
