Improving our appearance, well-being or health is usually at the top of most New Year resolution lists.  If this is a priority for you, then teeth whitening could be the perfect way to kick start 2023. We all like to go into the New Year by making improvements in our lives and if your teeth are looking dull, discolored, or perhaps even stained, then a brighter, whiter, more attractive smile could make you feel so much better about yourself. According to a survey by the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, 96% of adults believe an attractive smile makes a person more appealing to others and 74% of adults feel an unattractive smile can hurt their chance for career success.

Having a fantastic smile that you feel confident about, enhances your social and career opportunities. A brighter smile gives the impression of youth, vitality, happiness, and warmth. A bright smile is perceived as a healthy smile. And teeth whitening is such as easy, relatively inexpensive, and instantly noticeable way to do this and will not only improve your personal appearance but help you feel good about yourself in the process.

NEW YEAR. NEW START

Although there are over-the-counter treatments and home remedy options out there, at Expertise Dental we are the best dentist to advise our patients to seek professional advice and treatment as this is the best way to obtain a beautiful set of pearly whites – safely and effectively. This is how it works at Expertise Dental: Firstly, we will offer you an initial examination to check your teeth and determine if you are a good candidate for the teeth whitening procedure. Teeth whitening can be done on patients of any age although it can be more effective on some people’s teeth than others. Teeth whitening isn’t suitable for everyone. For example, it is not recommended for those with crowns, veneers or bridges as whitening doesn’t affect restorations so these teeth will look different. Also, if you suffer from sensitive teeth or gum disease then talk to us so we can look at treatment before undergoing whitening options. Secondly, we will explain what options are available and the best way forward. At our dental office we offer custom fabricated trays for our whitening procedure which is great at treating stains which can be caused by any number of reasons from the use of antibiotics, aging, trauma, decay, genetics, tobacco, foods, or drinks such as coffee or red wine. We will be able to determine the level of whitening required for your individual needs and the preferred shade required. Finally, after treatment we will offer you post-treatment instruction on how to deal with any issue of tooth sensitivity and how to avoid further staining of your teeth.
