How Whitening Works
Most people start out with sparking white teeth with a porcelain like enamel surface. Over the years the enamel wears down allowing stain and debris to fill in these weakened areas that can cause a dull appearance. Bleaching and whitening removes these intrinsic (where the stain forms on the inside of the tooth), or more commonly extrinsic stains (surface stains from drinks, coffee, wine, food, etc.). Setting up a consultation with John P. Goodman, DDS is your best option to finding out if teeth whitening is right for you.
Whitening can be very successful and safe when used properly, but can have negative side effects if not. Such risks include gum irritation from the bleach itself or sensitivity to temperature or pressure from higher concentration of bleach. If you already have sensitive teeth or gums, you should discuss your options with John P. Goodman, DDS. to establish which Tooth Whitening Option would be best for you.
Whitening Options
There are numerous options for accomplishing brighter and whiter teeth. Simple less dramatic options are whitening toothpastes or even chewing gum you can find at local Grocery stores. More drastic options include over the counter bleaching strips, gels, trays or take home kits you receive from dental professionals, but most require frequent to occasional maintenance. Whitening toothpastes or gums will give you slight results and over the counter kits you would buy at a store are not always efficient and can sometimes be spotty. These kits generally have a lower strength bleaching chemical gel and may only whiten a few teeth while take home kits like Dr. Goodman's Whitening will brighten a whole smile. Not to mention purchasing routine maintenance of over the counter kits can be pricey and even run you up to the same amount as more efficient take home kits or even long-term treatments.
