Teeth Whitening – Bedford, VA

Causes of Tooth Discoloration

Tooth discoloration is a natural part of the aging process and your genetics. However, there are many factors that increase the darkening of the teeth. The foods and drinks you consume, such as coffee and tea, cause stains to develop quicker. In addition, poor oral hygiene and lifestyle habits, like smoking, will also cause your smile to look yellow. Certain medications can also cause the teeth to darken prematurely.

Benefits of Professional Teeth Whitening

Over-the-counter whitening products are ineffective. They do not contain the professional-grade whitening agents needed to penetrate the enamel. The only way to achieve drastic, lasting results is with professional teeth whitening. At PeaksView Dental, we use the Zoom! Whitening system to reverse tough tooth discoloration. We offer both at-home and in-office whitening treatments to brighten your smile.

Zoom! Teeth Whitening System

The Zoom! Whitening system is the most patient-preferred treatment because it produces high-quality results with minimal discomfort. To begin restoring your bright, white smile, you will need an initial consultation with your cosmetic dentist. We will evaluate the health of your teeth and find the underlying cause of your discoloration. Then, we will create a comprehensive treatment plan that meets your needs and personal preferences.

In-Office Teeth Whitening Treatment

We offer in-office teeth whitening in Bedford to whiten your smile in just one appointment. After determining you are a candidate for the treatment, we will apply a protective gel to the gums and lips to prevent irritation. We will then fill the whitening trays with the professional-quality whitening agent.

You will wear the trays while we use a special light to activate the whitening agent. You will relax comfortably for about 2 hours while tough stains fade away. We will repeat the process three times to achieve drastic results. In just one appointment, your smile will become several shades whiter.

At-Home Teeth Whitening Treatment

We understand that you may need the convenience and comfort of whitening your smile at home. With our at-home kit, you will achieve professional quality results around your own schedule. After performing your initial consultation, we will take impressions of your teeth to create custom-made whitening trays. With the ideal fit, you will have added comfort while ensuring the even distribution of the whitening gel.

In addition to your trays, we provide you with professional-grade whitening gel. You will use the trays and the gel daily whenever is most convenient for you. Over the course of the next 10 to 14 days, you will see improvement in the appearance of your smile. Tough stains will fade away to leave a younger-looking smile.

Maintaining Your
New Smile

When choosing professional teeth whitening, you benefit from long-term results. To ensure your new bright smile stays as white as possible, it is important to practice proper oral hygiene. You need to brush your teeth twice a day and floss daily, while also visiting your dentist twice a year for preventive care. In addition, you need to avoid factors that cause staining of the teeth, such as dark pigmented foods and tobacco use.
