When you’re flipping through a magazine or watching your favorite show, you will inevitably see a lot of beautifully white smiles. Marketing pros and celebrities alike understand how a white, bright smile can totally transform the appearance.
Perhaps you’ve caught yourself even saying, “How do they have such beautiful teeth?” Many times it’s simply because they’ve had their teeth professionally whitened. There are no tricks involved in the process. It’s simple, easy and affordable for everyone, not just celebrities, and print models. Treating yourself to a brighter, cleaner, white smile is easier than you think.
The most efficient way to whiten your smile is to make an appointment with a professional to get the brightest, most long-lasting results. After the treatment is completed, your teeth will be up to 7 shades lighter depending on the amount of staining you have and your original tooth color. Once you’ve had your teeth professionally whitened, you will be more inclined to keep them clean and healthy.
Professional teeth whitening is an excellent way to:
• Boost confidence
• Increase self-esteem
• Motivate you to quit smoking
• Maintain good oral hygiene
• Smile more often
• Lighten tough stains (from medications, smoking, wine, coffee, aging)
At Premier Smiles, they take the time to examine your teeth prior to the whitening procedure to make certain that you are a good candidate and to explain the outcome that you desire and how it will be accomplished. Natural teeth will be lightened from the inside out, so any intrinsic staining, like that from tetracycline, will be lighter, giving the tooth a whiter appearance.
Professional whitening usually has between 30-44 percent carbamide peroxide. The peroxide creates a porous surface and allows the agent to penetrate into the teeth. This infiltration allows for the intrinsic stains to be lightened. It is completely safe, as the pores in the teeth close within 24-48 hours. No over the counter toothpaste or gel can get your teeth as white as professional methods.
Your teeth will be remarkably lighter, but not fake white, as teeth will only lighten to a natural tooth color. Although the results are long lasting, many clients choose to purchase whitening toothpastes, pens and maintenance gels to use at home. Typically individuals will see a brighter smile for 6 to 12 months, depending on your diet and dental hygiene.
If you’ve got an upcoming job interview, Halloween parties to attend, would like to improve your appearance, or just want to do something special for yourself, getting a professional whitening treatment is fast, safe and will make you feel fabulous. Whiter teeth are perceived as healthy; knowing that you take pride in your appearance will have a positive impact on you, and those around you.
