Teeth Whitening Langley : Boost Your Smiling & Speaking Confidence – And More

While there are a variety of ways to achieve brighter, whiter teeth, at Forest Hills Dental Centre in Langley, we know that professional whitening treatments are the safest, most effective, and most reliable options.

What Are The Benefits Of Professional Teeth Whitening Treatments?

If you’re looking for fast, dramatic results, professional teeth whitening may be your ideal option. These treatments are performed or overseen by a dental professional and they utilize stronger bleaching agents than what is available over the counter. Results are also much more likely to last for many months (or longer) with professional whitening treatments, as a result.

Who Is A Candidate For Professional Whitening Services?

Patients who have healthy teeth and gums are good candidates. If you’re interested in whitening but you have untreated decay or you’ve had restorative work (fillings, crowns, veneers, bridges, implants) performed on your most prominent teeth, whitening is not likely to be an ideal treatment for you.

 What Should I Know About Over-the-counter Teeth Whitening Treatments And Products?

There are many over-the-counter whitening products available, including toothpastes, gels, strips, and rinses. These products generally contain bleaching agents such as hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide, which can help remove surface stains on your teeth.

While these products are generally safe for most people to use, it’s important to know that overuse can lead to irritation of your gums or tooth sensitivity and that they’re far less effective than professional options.
