Brighten Your Smile with Professional Bleaching
If you’re seeking a fast and effective means of improving the color of your teeth and appearance of your smile, consider teeth whitening treatments at Total Health Dental Care. We consider all of you, not just the mouth, with this treatment. And we perform our work to benefit your total health, as well.
Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dentistry service that lightens the color of teeth and removes stains and discoloration. Teeth whitening is frequently requested at our Oakland office and Berkeley office, and is quite popular with our patients. To find out why, contact our dental team today to schedule your own appointment.
Benefits of Teeth Whitening
The aesthetic appeal of a bright, white smile is certainly the most obvious perk of a teeth whitening treatment; teeth may look up to 14 shades lighter after a ZOOM!® session. The teeth whitening procedure is safe and practically pain-free; patients experience little to no tooth sensitivity, and the bleaching process doesn’t affect the enamel.
Patients who have their teeth bleached at our office report higher levels of confidence about their overall appearance. Smiling and speaking in social and professional situations becomes easier with a bright, white smile.
About Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening treatments eliminate discoloration that is caused by products such as coffee, tea, cigarettes, and certain antibiotics. There are several methods of teeth whitening available on the market today: professional in-office bleaching systems, at-home bleaching kits, and whitening toothpastes.
Our practice utilizes the ZOOM!® professional teeth whitening system, one of the leading chairside whitening systems in the world. Prior to a ZOOM!® bleaching session, your gums are covered with a protective shield. The ZOOM!® proprietary bleaching gel is applied to your teeth. A special laser light is used to enhance the bleaching agent – it activates chemical components of the gel and together the light and gel penetrates the tooth’s enamel, breaking up stains and improving the overall color of the teeth.
Please note that bleaching gel will not change the color of tooth restorations such as dental crowns, fillings, or bonding material. If you have questions about this or other details of the teeth whitening process, contact our Oakland practice or our Berkeley practice.
