Nothing gives one more confidence while smiling or talking than white, bright teeth. Nevertheless, our teeth get stained from time to time from habits such as smoking, eating and drinking. You might not be impressed with the color of your teeth, so just how do you fix this?
Teeth whitening is a procedure used to lighten the natural color of one’s teeth and make them whiter and brighter. It removes stains and any type of discoloration on the tooth surface. If you want to maintain that white color on your teeth, you will need to undergo a teeth whitening procedure from time to time.
Teeth Whitening Process
Take home tooth whitening is not a one day thing. It can take 2-3 weeks to reach the desired results you are trying to achieve. First, you will need to consult with your dentist who will examine and let you know if you are suitable for the treatment procedure, as you do not want to bleach decayed teeth.
