Who is an appropriate candidate for professional teeth whitening near Charleston?
Patients near Charleston, South Carolina are often working with their dentist to learn about ways to improve the health and beauty of their smiles. Some patients may be told that teeth whitening would be a beneficial method of rejuvenating the appearance of their natural teeth. However, when patients use over-the-counter whitening strips and trays, they are often disappointed in the results. Dr. Andrew Greenberg and the team of Mouth Carolina Dentistry, PA may suggest professional-grade products available in their practice for optimal results.
At Mouth Carolina Dentistry, PA, we provide take-home teeth whitening trays. Unlike the ones available in the local oral care aisle of the drugstore, these whitening trays are custom-made for a precise fit. Impressions are taken and used to create the whitening trays, which can be used to brighten the smile. Patients are also given stronger whitening gels, which can dramatically enhance the smile in just a few days of use. These whitening gels are higher concentrations than anything available over-the-counter making them much faster and more effective at lightening the teeth and pulling stains from deep within the tooth enamel. Unlike other dentists in the area, Dr. Andrew Greenberg does not provide in-office bleaching, as many patients experience problems such as extreme sensitivity with their use. Additionally, the results do not last as long as those achieved with his professional whitening trays.
Dr. Andrew Greenberg must determine if patients are appropriate candidates for professional teeth whitening before starting the process of making their custom whitening trays. Patients should not have restorations in their smile such as veneers, crowns, and bridges as these will not be whitened by the treatment. Patients who are interested in updating their restorations after the whitening process can undergo treatment with the understanding that they will need to be replaced to match the new tint of the natural tooth enamel for a more natural appearance.
Patients in the Charleston, South Carolina area who are interested in finding out more about professional grade teeth whitening solutions available at Mouth Carolina Dentistry, PA are welcome to contact Dr. Andrew Greenberg and his dedicated team to find out if take-home whitening trays are best for their needs.
