Bleaching                                                              
Tooth whitening by various chemicals is currently very popular. There are a number of different treatments available ranging from a plastic tray into which the patient places the bleaching solution up to an in office treatment using high strength bleaching agents, special high intensity lights, heat, and other materials.

New breakthrough technology allows you to whiten your teeth comfortably and effectively, in only 1 hour a day.

The trays our office supplies are a clear plastic form, custom made to the exact shape of your teeth. There will be a slight space molded in front of each front tooth to hold the bleaching gel. Simply place a small amount of the gel into that space, and insert the tray into your mouth. Usually the best time to wear the tray is during the evening, although your own individual schedule will give you the best times for wearing it. Do not eat with the tray in place.

Darkened teeth can be lightened noticeably (2+ increments on a dental shade guide) in a relatively short period. Success of treatment depends on how often patient wears the bleaching trays.

We suggest only wearing the upper tray first. This gives you a comparison with the lower teeth to see how the bleaching is progressing. Be patient. The effect is subtle and it may take several days to see any improvement.
