Do you have a special event coming up or just want to have a brighter smile? Teeth whitening has become a popular cosmetic dental treatment over the past several years. However, you should always consult a cosmetic dentist before you purchase an over-the-counter product. OTC options are never as effective as professional teeth whitening from Dr. Whitehouse and Dr. Kilkelly.
The best part is that a teeth whitening procedure at Derby Dental is fast and convenient. After your initial visit to our Austin dental office, we will give you some choices. You will have the option of in-office whitening services or at-home teeth whitening kits.
Benefits of KöR Teeth Whitening
Compared to store-bought teeth whiteners, KöR Professional Teeth Whitening is clearly the superior choice. Store-bought products use watered-down bleaching agents and one-size-fits-all trays. KöR lets you brighten your smile safely and effectively thanks to its incredibly potent gel and custom-fit trays!
The gel will reduce sensitivity while also removing more deeply set-in stains. We will custom-fit the trays to minimize irritation to your gums. Plus, depending on how well you care for your mouth afterward, your results can last for several months to a year or two.
Maintaining Your Teeth Whitening Results
Once you brighten your smile, you will likely want to keep your smile white for as long as possible. With the right routine, you can help maintain your professional whitening results for longer than at-home treatments.
Daily Routine: Brushing and flossing your teeth can help your teeth remain whiter for longer. When you don’t brush your teeth regularly, plaque and bacteria builds up. As a result, this can turn your teeth yellow over time. Yet, a good oral hygiene routine can eliminate this issue and improve your oral health at the same time.
Use Whitening Toothpaste: There is toothpaste that helps gently whiten your teeth. You can use hydrogen peroxide toothpaste to keep your teeth whiter and maintain your results. However, these products may have limited effectiveness.
Watch Your Diet: Certain foods and drinks like coffee, tea, red wine, and dark-colored fruits can stain teeth. Therefore, you should try to limit your intake of these items to help maintain the teeth whitening results.
