There are various factors that can dull the color and overall appearance of your teeth. Several foods and drinks are particularly tough on the enamel. As time goes by, our teeth will lose some of their radiance. Teeth whitening in our Tulsa office is the solution that many people turn to address stains and discoloration to help restore beauty and brightness to their smile. Dr. Frank Henrich, dentist in Tulsa, OK at Henrich Dental can help you discover the best solutions for your cosmetic needs and goals.
The effects will vary from patient to patient. In-office professional teeth whitening can last from a few months to a few years depending on patient maintenance and oral care routine. Daily oral hygiene is very important to help your teeth remain whiter longer. Frequent visits to your dentist for exams and cleanings can help, as well as avoiding foods and drinks that can stain teeth. To extend the life of your treatment, we offer at-home touch-up kits.
Many patients end up wasting time and money on over-the-counter whitening agents that often lead to inconsistent, less than desirable results. With in-office teeth whitening, we can help you reach your goal. Our techniques and materials are a proven way to safely and effectively whiten your smile in just one visit to our dental practice.
Our in-office teeth whitening procedure offers several advantages over over-the-counter whitening methods, including:
The in-office whitening process takes about an hour or so. A special bleaching agent will be expertly painted onto your teeth. We avoid your gums and the agent won’t harm your enamel. Once this is done, a light is put onto your teeth that activates the bleaching agent in the gel. Your teeth will get multiple shades whiter throughout this process.
At-home whitening kits can enhance your whitening experience. They are customized for your specific needs and mouth concerns. Bleaching trays are fitted to your smile to make sure they don’t irritate the soft tissues of your mouth. Your dentist will give you instructions on how to use them for optimal results.
