Who Is a Good Candidate for Teeth Whitening?

Most patients who are in good oral health are eligible for teeth whitening. If Dr. Malaviya or Dr. Sardhara find that you have any dental health issues like cavities or gum infections, you’ll need to get those addressed before we can focus on the appearance of your smile.

In order to ensure successful results, we must first understand the cause of your tooth discoloration. There are two types of tooth stains: extrinsic and intrinsic. Extrinsic stains occur on the teeth’s surface, often as a result of habits like smoking or overconsumption of richly pigmented foods and drinks (coffee, tea, tomato sauce, berries, etc.). Intrinsic stains develop beneath the surface for multiple reasons, such as aging, injuries, or certain medications.

No matter the cause of your dental discoloration, our professional teeth whitening treatment can lighten your teeth by several shades, helping you smile with confidence!

How Teeth Whitening Works

You might be wondering how professional teeth whitening differs from over-the-counter solutions. The main advantage of our treatment is that the bleaching gel is significantly more potent than any product you can find in stores. Not only that, but your treatment will be customized to meet your unique needs and desires.

With that in mind, there are two ways that your cosmetic dentist in Creative Smiles Dental Care can whiten your teeth:

Take-Home Teeth Whitening

Do you want to improve your smile on your own time from the comfort of your own home? If so, then you might benefit from our take-home teeth whitening kits. Unlike store-bought whitening kits, our system uses trays that are made from impressions we take of your teeth, ensuring a precise, comfortable fit. We’ll provide you with these trays, along with a super-potent bleaching gel, to wear for a certain amount of time per day, usually about 30 minutes. You should achieve the results you were looking for after about two weeks of using these trays every day.

In-Office Teeth Whitening

If you have an event coming up soon where you want to look your best, like a wedding or a job interview, we can brighten your smile in a single appointment that only takes about an hour. Once you arrive at our office, we’ll start by isolating your teeth with a dental dam to protect your soft tissues from the whitening gel. Then, we apply the gel to your teeth, which penetrates the enamel to break up deep-set stains. After a few minutes, we wipe off the gel, removing the stains as well. We can repeat this process a few times until you’re satisfied with the results.

Tips for Maintaining Your Brighter Smile

While no teeth whitening treatment provides permanent results, there are some best practices you can follow to keep your smile bright for as long as possible:

  • Maintain a good oral hygiene routine (use a whitening toothpaste and/or a whitening mouthwash a few times a week)
  • Visit our dental office at least twice a year for a checkup and cleaning
  • Eat plenty of white dairy products to keep your teeth bright and strong
  • Avoid consuming too many foods and beverages that notoriously stain teeth
At Creative Smiles Dental Care, we have the perfect way to maintain your bright smile for years to come: our Free Teeth Whitening for Life program! All you need to do is pay a $99 enrollment fee and attend a checkup and cleaning with us every six months. It’s that simple!

Teeth Whitening FAQs

Are you thinking about getting teeth whitening in Creative Smiles Dental Care? Even though you may know a bit more about the process, it’s completely normal to still have a few lingering questions in mind. Lucky for you, our team is more than happy to address any concerns you have! However, we understand that some people would rather do their research online than speak to a professional at Creative Smiles Dental Care. For that reason, we’ve decided to answer some frequently asked questions below.

Many people are hesitant to move forward with cosmetic dental treatment because they’re worried it will hurt. Well, you’ll be pleasantly surprised to find that most procedures are not as bad as you may think! Since professional teeth whitening is fully customized to meet every patient’s individual needs, your chances of experiencing sensitivity or discomfort are much lower. Of course, don’t hesitate to let us know if your teeth are naturally prone to sensitivity. We can find solutions to make your treatment as comfortable as possible, like spacing out your appointments or using specialty toothpaste.

Truthfully, almost anyone with a stained or discolored smile is a good candidate for teeth whitening treatment. The best way to find out if you’re eligible is by scheduling a consultation with our team at Creative Smiles Dental Care. During your appointment, we’ll conduct an oral examination and inquire about your goals to determine whether or not this service is right for you. If you don’t have any underlying problems (i.e., decay or gum disease), we can begin working on your custom treatment plan!

No, teeth whitening is not considered permanent. You can expect your results to last anywhere between a few months to a couple of years depending on several factors. For instance, your oral hygiene, health, and lifestyle can influence the lifespan of your new smile. If you want your bright results to last as long as possible, make sure you practice good oral hygiene, visit your dentist regularly, and kick bad habits to the curb (i.e., smoking, biting fingernails, using teeth as tools).

Every case is unique, which is why there is no set price for teeth whitening in Avon. The cost varies from patient to patient depending on factors like the number of sessions needed, whether it’s an in-office or take-home treatment, and whether you’ll need any restorative care beforehand. During your initial consultation, we’ll thoroughly explain the pricing information so you know exactly what to expect.

Toothaches

Is my toothache a dental emergency? While not every toothache is considered a dental emergency, you’ll want to still visit our team just in case. This could sometimes be an indication that something is wrong with your smile. A toothache will qualify as an emergency if you experience the following:

How you should handle a toothache: You should first give us a call so that we understand the situation and can schedule an appointment. Afterward, try flossing around the pained tooth to remove any bothersome debris. Rinse your mouth with saltwater to alleviate inflammation and fight off infection. Place a cold compress on the outside of your mouth to reduce discomfort and swelling. Take over-the-counter pain medications like ibuprofen. Avoid using aspirin directly on your gums or teeth.

How we treat toothaches: Your treatment will depend on the root cause of your toothache. If it’s due to periodontal infection, then we’ll likely provide gum disease therapy. If your discomfort is due to an infection, then we can perform a root canal to save your tooth. But if it’s beyond repair, then our team may consider extracting it to preserve your oral health. We’ll be sure to assess your situation and determine the best way to relieve your pain and save your smile.

Chipped Tooth

Is a chipped tooth a dental emergency? Most chipped teeth don’t require immediate attention. However, you’ll still want to get it treated as soon as you can since a damaged tooth will be more vulnerable to future injury and infection later on.

How you should handle a chipped tooth: Try rinsing with warm water to clear out any tiny pieces of the tooth from your mouth. This way you can keep the area clean and bacteria-free. Avoid using the chipped tooth for biting or chewing anything. Feel free to cover it up with dental wax or sugarless gum if it feels sensitive.

How we treat chipped teeth: Although a chipped tooth may seem unsettling at first, it’s quite simple to treat. In most cases, we can easily repair and improve your condition with dental bonding. But if a front tooth is chipped and you’re worried about your appearance, you can consider getting veneers for a more comprehensive and longer-lasting solution.

Cracked Tooth

Is a cracked tooth a dental emergency? A cracked tooth is typically considered a dental emergency, as it will be more vulnerable to further damage, bacteria, and infection. However, if the injury is minor, then it may be able to wait a few days to get treated if necessary. That said, remember that very small cracks in your smile can be difficult to notice. If you experience any sensitivity or pain while chewing, especially after taking a blow to the face, then you might have a hidden crack that’ll require treatment.

How you should handle a cracked tooth: Firstly, gently rinse your mouth with water to remove any broken fragments of the tooth, clearing away bacteria in the process. Try covering up your tooth with dental wax or sugar-free gum if it feels sensitive. Keep away from chewing on that side of your mouth until you can see us.

How we treat cracked teeth: If the crack in your tooth is small, then we may be able to simply repair it with dental bonding. For more severe cracks, you may require protecting and strengthening it with a dental crown. In rare cases, a tooth that is beyond repair may need to be extracted and replaced altogether.
