Dental Services: Whitening
Everybody loves a bright white smile, and there are a variety of products and procedures available to help you improve the look of yours.
Many people are satisfied with the sparkle they get from brushing twice daily with a fluoride-containing toothpaste, cleaning between their teeth once a day and the regular cleanings at the dentist’s office. If you decide you would like to go beyond this to make your smile look brighter, you should investigate all of your options.
You can take several approaches to whiten your smile:
• In-office bleaching;
• At-home bleaching;
• Whitening toothpastes
Bryant Dentistry is an innovator in teeth whitening. Our office uses all of the latest technologies to provide our patients a variety of options.
Bright Smile (Laser Whitening):
We're sure you are familiar with the "Laser In Office" whitening. This technique is known as the Brite Smile Method. With just one visit to BriteSmile you can have the naturally perfect and healthy smile you've always wanted. BriteSmile is a revolutionary, one hour teeth whitening experience that is safe, remarkably effective and the results last for years. And your satisfaction is guaranteed! The whitening agent is painted on your teeth and is accelerated by a ultra-violet light. Three 20 minute sessions of applying the whitening agent, along with the ultra-violet light process, and your teeth will lighten-up anywhere from 2 to 4 shades. Impressions will be taken also, so that you will leave with your very own whitening trays and whitening agent. These you can use at your convenience to "perk-up" that smile. Come on in, site back and relax, and let the whitening process begin!
Bleaching Trays:
The bleaching trays still remain an easy and successful method of whitening your smile. Impressions are taken of your mouth. From these impressions, we make whitening trays that specifically fit your teeth. A shade of your teeth is taken so that we have something to compare the "before shade" to the "new shade." When the trays are ready, an appointment s made to make sure the trays fit properly and to explain the whitening process. it takes about two weeks of wearing your whitening trays for only 1 1/2 hours each day to achieve the results you are looking for. After that, additional whitening gel may be purchased from us as you feel the need to re-fresh your smile. having your own personal trays, will ensure the convenience of "perking-up" that smile as one sees fit.
Whitestrips:
We now have the Oral B Whitestrips available in our office as another method of whitening your smile. The kits consist of all the Whitestrips needed to complete the process on top and bottom teeth. The Whitestrips are worn twice a day for 30 minutes for 21 days. The strength of the bleach in the Whitestrips is far more effective than any over the counter product.
The above mentioned whitening procedures available for you in our office, are safe and effective for your teeth. After all, why not brighten that smile! A smile is meant to last for a lifetime. Thanks for entrusting us as your dental professionals.
