Who is a Good Candidate for Teeth Whitening?

Even if you consistently brush and floss your teeth twice daily, repeated or frequent exposure to dark foods and drinks can leave them looking more yellow or brown than pearly white. Potentially anyone unhappy with the shade of their smile can benefit from professional whitening services, but that doesn’t make them the best solution for every circumstance.

This topical treatment is perfect for removing years’ worth of surface stains from your enamel. However, if you have blemishes that originate or have seeped into the lower layers of your teeth, you might require a different procedure to mask the issue, like porcelain veneers or dental bonding.

How Does Teeth Whitening Work?

Although plenty of commercially available products claim to lighten your grin, there’s no guarantee you’ll achieve the desired results. To make matters worse, some patients have overapplied the bleaching agent to try to attain the perfect shade only to develop tooth sensitivity from the cheaper ingredients.

Meanwhile, Dr. Rodda uses professional-grade Glo Teeth Whitening gels designed to be ultra-concentrated without causing potentially adverse effects. Our team offers both in-office services and take-home kits, outlined in more detail below:

In-Office Teeth Whitening

In a single, hour-long appointment, we can brighten the color of your smile by up to 8 shades! First, we’ll apply the whitening gel and then cure it with a special light that speeds up the bleaching process. If you have an upcoming event and want to flash a flawless smile, this is an ideal way to get instant results.

Take-Home Teeth Whitening

Tips for Maintaining Your Brighter Smile

Now that you’ve attained the perfectly toned teeth, it’s natural to want to maintain the results for as long as possible. Some helpful tips to preserving your recently upgraded grin include:

  • Watch what you eat. You might re-stain your teeth if your indulge in dark foods like coffee, tea, berries, or tomatoes. Instead, eating white dairy products preserves and strengthens your enamel.
  • Schedule follow-ups. You may require occasional touch-ups to keep the perfect color intact.
  • Practice regular dental hygiene. Brushing and flossing twice daily removes bacteria and plaque buildup that discolored ingredients can cling to.
