Tooth Whitening Procedures
Tooth whitening (or bleaching) is a simple, non-invasive dental procedure that can change your teeth if they are discolored or stained and cause you to be self-conscious about your smile. You may have tried using over-the-counter tooth whitening kits, but the safest and longest-lasting solution is to visit a cosmetic dentist like Dr. Swantkowski and professionally whiten your teeth.
At our office, we offer the Zoom! professional tooth whitening system, as well as a professional take-home, custom tray whitening kit.
Some of the most notable advantages to using this system include:
- Zoom! is completely safe and non-invasive
- There are no side effects except mild tooth sensitivity during and right after the procedure
- The whole process takes less than two hours
- With proper care, results last many years
- A set of custom tooth whitening trays are included for a post-treatment touch-up
With the professional take-home whitening system, you whiten your teeth at home with your custom trays made in our office. This tooth whitening system can whiten your teeth up to five shades whiter.
- Completely safe and non-invasive
- There are no side effects except mild tooth sensitivity during and right after the procedure
- The process takes about two weeks
- Results can last for many years
Tooth whitening is not permanent. A touch-up maybe needed every several years, and more often if you smoke, drink coffee, tea, or wine.
