How teeth whitening from your dentist in Lynchburg, VA, can brighten your smile
Does your smile make you look old? It’s possible. In fact, aging makes your smile appear yellower. That’s because as you age, your tooth enamel becomes thinner, allowing you and others to see the layer underneath, called dentin. This layer is naturally yellow, so the more dentin you can see, the more yellow your smile will look.
Fortunately, you can rejuvenate your smile with a professional teeth whitening treatment from here at Dental-Doctors of Lynchburg in Lynchburg, VA. Offered by Dr. Robert A. Bunn, read on to learn what this cosmetic option can do for you.
The benefits of professional teeth whitening
Professional teeth whitening is not the same as an over-the-counter teeth whitening treatment. In fact, over-the-counter products often contain harsh chemicals and abrasive agents that can harm your teeth. Conversely, professional teeth whitening is much better for you and your smile. Consider that professional teeth whitening is:
- Effective, because you can whiten your smile by up to 8 shades brighter
- Long-lasting, because your outstanding results can last up to 5 years
- Safe, because professional products have been tested and approved by the American Dental Association
You can have a dazzling white smile quickly too, because the in-office treatment only takes about an hour to complete. Treatment begins with isolating your teeth and applying a whitening gel solution to your teeth. This gel is then activated using a high-tech ultraviolet light. You will see amazing results even after your first one-hour appointment.
Remember that teeth whitening products can only whiten natural tooth structure, not fillings, crowns, or porcelain veneers. Your dentist can help you determine whether professional teeth whitening, bonding, tooth-colored fillings, or other treatments are the best choice for you.
