What is teeth whitening?
Even when brushing and flossing your teeth daily, staining and discoloration can still naturally occur over time, but the team at Gupta Orthodontics can help you gain a brighter smile! Applied right in our office, Opalescence Boost is a teeth-whitening gel that safely, quickly and effectively provides a brighter smile. The gel is chemically activated, so no hot or uncomfortable LED teeth-whitening lights are needed. Opalescence Boost begins to work as soon as it is on your teeth. You’ll have a brighter smile in just 60 minutes!
How to whiten teeth
There are various ways to whiten teeth outside of regular dental hygiene. These methods may include:
- Teeth whitening strips
- Teeth whitening kits
- DIY teeth whitening
- Natural teeth whitening methods
However, the best teeth whitening method is to go with a dental professional who knows what they are doing. The team at Gupta Orthodontics is highly trained and provides a much more effective and safe teeth whitening treatment than you could give yourself at home.
What to expect from Opalescence teeth whitening
We recommend seeing your primary dentist for a checkup before visiting Gupta Orthodontics for Opalescence whitening treatment. You and your dentist will discuss your teeth and gum health and determine if a whitening treatment is best for you. Routine dental check-ups also eliminate plaque and surface stains, which create a smooth surface on your teeth, making the whitening treatment more effective.
After visiting your dentist, you can schedule an appointment at Gupta Orthodontics. You’ll come to our office and share some medical history, like existing health conditions or tooth implants. Then, we can begin treatment.
Treatment step-by-step
1.
We will determine the beginning shade of your teeth and then place a lip and cheek retractor to keep your tongue and lips clear of the whitening gel and a protective barrier around your gumline to prevent the gel from irritating your gums.
2.
We will gently apply the gel to your teeth using a brushed tip. The gel will remain on your teeth for 20 minutes before being suctioned off to evaluate the shade change of your teeth and determine if you need another application based on your goals. We can apply the gel up to three times in one treatment session.
3.
Following the final gel application and removal, we can easily remove the protective barrier and retractor, and you will notice a brighter smile!
