Tooth Whitening Dentistry To Fix Discolored, Dark Or Stained Teeth
At Philip J Gross DDS
Tooth
whitening involves the placement of a bleaching solution on the teeth to eliminate stains and discoloration. The solution is held in place by a custom-made, see-through tray that fits over the teeth - much like a mouthpiece worn by a professional boxer.
Bleaching is a safe, effective and relatively easy means of producing a whiter smile.
Two whitening methods are available at Philip J Gross DDS: Power Bleaching with a Laser, done at our office, and At-Home-Bleaching, which provides for home use (not to be confused with over-the-counter
whitening products available in local
Portland area drug stores).
The difference between the two is the strength of the whitening agent and the time it takes to get effective results. Power bleaching usually takes three to six visits, while home bleaching may take up to four weeks of regular use.
Sensitive teeth, or those that are chipped, eroded or weakened by cavities, should be repaired or protected before they are bleached.
Please don't hesitate to call Philip J Gross DDS at (503) 223-5125 with any questions you may
have about the benefits of tooth whitening or tooth bleaching for a
whiter smile.
