If you’re unhappy with stains and discoloration on your teeth, you are not alone. Our teeth can become blemished over time due to aging, eating, and other factors, which can lead to you feeling self-conscious about your appearance. Luckily, there are simple solutions available to help brighten your smile and renew your confidence. Your team at Wayman Family Dentistry in Oklahoma City, OK, offers in-office and at-home methods to help lift stains off your teeth and achieve a brighter smile. In today’s blog, we’re here to talk about these teeth-whitening options and more.
Quick, Convenient In-Office Option
Need a quick smile refresh before a special event you have coming up? Our in-office whitening treatment can help lift several shades of discoloration in just about one hour. Once you’ve completed your cosmetic treatment consultation and received approval for this method, we can proceed. We apply the bleaching agent to your pearly whites and activate it with a special light. We easily lift your stains from the enamel, allowing you to leave your appointment with a visibly brighter smile. This method is perfect for an upcoming date night or special occasion.
Comfortable At-Home Treatment
Are you short on time to visit our office for treatment? Prefer to do this by yourself? No matter what your reasoning for wanting an at-home treatment, we understand that it can be highly comfortable, convenient, and safer than a store-bought kit. If you decide to do the procedure at home by yourself, we’ll send you home with custom trays that you will wear every night with the safe and effective bleaching agent. You will wear these trays as instructed by your dentist and enjoy your brighter smile in just a few weeks.
Maintaining Your Pearly Whites
Now that you have lifted those stains, you want to keep your teeth as bright as possible for as long as possible. Typically, a professional in-office or at-home treatment can last up to two years. To best maintain your results, you may also need to follow some extra steps in your oral hygiene routine. First and foremost, make sure to follow a consistent oral hygiene routine, including brushing and flossing twice a day. This routine is one of the easiest ways to keep your smile looking fresh. Additionally, try to avoid or reduce the amount of beverages and foods you consume that can stain your teeth. For instance, minimize drinking coffee and soda, or drink it through a straw when possible. If you need any clarification, you can always give our office a call.
