When yellowed or stained teeth are making you reluctant to smile, teeth whitening can help. Although you can find several over-the-counter options for this available at local stores, professional whitening procedures offer a few important benefits. Find out more about why you should consider choosing professional teeth whitening to get a brighter smile.
Brighten your Smile
Stains and discoloration can make an otherwise beautiful smile appear old and dingy. If your smile could use some sparkle, consider safe and effective professional teeth whitening in Long Beach, CA. Our dental office offers in-office and take-home teeth whitening to brighten your smile up to ten shades.
How it Works
In-office teeth whitening is the quickest and safest way to enhance the appearance of your smile. When you come in for your appointment, Dr. Tang will first place protective coverings on your soft tissues, and then he will apply the teeth whitening solution to all of your teeth. A special lamp will speed up the bleaching process. In about an hour, you will have a bold, beautiful smile.
At Home Options
If you have sensitive teeth, dark stains, or prefer to whiten your teeth gradually, Dr. Tang may recommend take-home teeth whitening. At your appointment, we will create custom mouth trays that will hold the whitening solution flush against your teeth. Wear the trays for about an hour a day and after two weeks your teeth will lighten up to eight shades. Keep the reusable trays and any leftover teeth whitening solution for touchups or special occasions.
If you live in the Long Beach, Lakewood, or Seal Beach areas, let cosmetic dentist Dr. Tang refresh your smile with professional teeth whitening. Call our dental office today to schedule your appointment.
Safe and Effective
Using an over-the-counter whitening product can irritate your gums or leave your teeth feeling sensitive. These products might also not provide you with the results you want. When you choose professional teeth whitening, you can count on having it done in a safe manner. Your dentist will make sure that this cosmetic service is right for your teeth and won’t bother your gums. Although you might experience some tooth sensitivity, it should be mild, and your dentist can recommend ways to reduce it. Professional whitening services also provide more effective results, giving you a beautiful smile. In fact, these services can whiten your teeth by as much as ten shades.
Quick and Convenient
Professional teeth whitening in Long Beach only takes about an hour when you have it done in the office. Your dentist will protect your gums, put a teeth whitening solution on your teeth and bleach your teeth faster using a special lamp. You can also have your teeth whitened on your own time by choosing take-home trays. These are custom-made mouth trays that you wear for roughly one hour per day for a couple of weeks for brighter teeth. You can put these trays in your mouth whenever it’s convenient for you to do so. Whether you choose in-office teeth whitening or take home trays, you can depend on having whiter teeth in a short amount of time.
