Teeth Whitening
Serving New York City & Manhattan, New York
Whether of personal or business nature, first impressions are vital to building successful relationships. With a brightened, more aesthetically pleasing smile, initial impressions will be impressed upon your associates and your confidence will soar.
Teeth whitening procedures restore a tooth’s original color, before all the stains that life has impressed upon them. While it’s not a permanent solution, our teeth whitening techniques such as New York BriteSmile can whiten teeth up to nine shades, while LumaArch can whiten teeth 3-4 shades.
Our cosmetic dentists will personally oversee every aspect of your teeth whitening, ensuring that your oral health is satisfactory to precede and explain how to care for your freshly whitened teeth.
Am I A Candidate For Teeth Whitening?
Even with the best oral hygiene, numerous agents wear down the porcelain-like enamel of our teeth over time. Below this enamel lurks yellow dentin, our teeth’s true color. Teeth whitening procedures remove the stains and debris that have built up over time, allowing more organic elements to fill in the cracks.
Teeth are stained by numerous factors, such as:
- Age – As time ticks by, more stain accumulates on our enamel. Although in our twenties teeth may still resemble the pearls we used to have, by our thirties and forties, they’re overcast with yellow and brown
- Eating habits – Coffee, tea, soda, carrots, red wine, oranges, and sugar stain our teeth. Additionally, acidic foods gnaw at our enamel
- Smoking – It’s common knowledge that Nicotine seeps into enamel and discolors it
- Grinding – Stress and other factors that contribute to teeth grinding can crack our teeth and leave them more susceptible to staining
If these or any other factors have discolored your teeth, leaving you with a smile that’s weighing down your confidence, you might be a candidate for teeth whitening.
Restoring To Your Full Shine
Teeth can be stained in two ways and certain products address both, while some only the most basic stains.
- Surface stains also known as extrinsic stains, occur on the surface of your teeth. They occur due to exposure to staining elements, such as tobacco and dark beverages. All whitening techniques will rid your teeth of surface stains
- Intrinsic stains form inside your teeth and result from the wear and tear of aging and trauma. These are far more difficult to remove but adhering to a take home bleaching kit for an extended period of time can achieve your goals.
