The enamel, the outer layer of your teeth, is the hardest substance in the human body!
The first step towards a brighter smile is a consultation and thorough dental examination. Dr. Brookes of Acacia Dental Care will assess your oral health, discuss your aesthetic goals, and determine if teeth whitening is the right option for you. This step is crucial as certain conditions, like cavities or gum disease, need to be addressed before whitening to prevent sensitivity or discomfort. You'll also have the opportunity to ask any questions you may have about the procedure during this initial visit.
Once you're deemed a suitable candidate for teeth whitening, the next step involves creating a custom tray for your treatment. Dr. Brookes will take an impression of your teeth, which is used to craft a custom-fitted whitening tray. This tray is designed to fit snugly over your teeth, ensuring that the whitening gel is evenly distributed for optimal results.
The final step is the whitening process itself. You'll apply the whitening gel to the custom tray and wear it for a prescribed amount of time each day. The gel works to lighten your teeth by several shades over a period of a few days or weeks, depending on the extent of discoloration and your desired level of whiteness.
Teeth whitening doesn't damage your teeth – it simply removes stains and discoloration!
