Request an AppointmentWhat Causes Tooth Discoloration?
Teeth can lose their brightness for many reasons. Common causes of stains include:
- Coffee, tea, red wine, soda, and dark berries
- Tobacco use
- Natural aging, as enamel thins and the yellow dentin beneath shows through
- Certain medications
- Inadequate brushing and flossing
Benefits of Professional Whitening
Store-bought whitening products often deliver slow, uneven, or disappointing results. Professional whitening uses higher-quality whitening agents applied under the guidance of our dental team, so you can enjoy noticeably brighter results while protecting your teeth and gums. Because we evaluate your oral health first, we can make sure whitening is safe for you and recommend the best approach for your goals.
Is Teeth Whitening Right for You?
Most adults with healthy teeth and gums are good candidates for whitening. Whitening works best on natural tooth enamel and does not change the color of crowns, veneers, or fillings. If you have deep or internal stains that do not respond to whitening, porcelain veneers may be an excellent alternative. We will review your options during your consultation.
Start With a Clean, Healthy Smile
For the best whitening results, we recommend starting with a professional cleaning and exam. Removing plaque and tartar and treating any cavities first helps the whitening treatment work evenly and comfortably.
Keeping Your Smile Bright
To maintain your results, brush twice daily, floss every day, and rinse with water after consuming stain-causing foods and drinks. Periodic touch-up treatments can help keep your smile looking its best. Whitening is also a popular part of a complete full mouth cosmetic dentistry makeover.
