Teeth Whitening in Durham and Ajax
If your teeth have lost their pearly white healthy appearance you are not alone. Aging, diet, injuries along with many other factors cause teeth to dull and yellow. Teeth whitening has become a popular cosmetic dental procedure. Teeth whitening is process that restores stained or discoloured teeth to a healthy, natural colour, and is very safe under the supervision of a dental professional.
What to expect from a Teeth Whitening treatment
The results from teeth whitening can last for as long as a year and with touch-ups treatments (at home) every few months results can last even longer. "Touch-ups" are especially useful for patients that drink beverages that are prone to stain teeth, such as coffee, tea and red wine. Some patients may experience heightened tooth sensitivity or mild tooth or gum sensitivity during treatment, but these symptoms are only temporary and disappear within a few days after the treatment is finished.
To help you restore your gleaming, bright white smile and to give you an added boost of confidence, Durham Dental Anesthesia offers custom whitening kits. Our Ajax dental office offers Day White ACP and Nite White ACP, which are both applied using custom-fitted trays that we will provide for you after taking impressions of your teeth. Both products are safe and extremely effective when used according to the directions.
