Who Is a Good Candidate for Teeth Whitening?
Most adults with healthy teeth and gums are great candidates for professional teeth whitening. If your enamel has yellowed or darkened from food, drinks, tobacco, or aging, a take-home kit from our La Crosse cosmetic dentist can truly make a difference.
However, one thing to keep in mind is that whitening only works on natural tooth enamel. That means that crowns, veneers, and bonding material won't respond to the treatment. So, if you have multiple restorations, you may need an alternative solution. The best way to explore your options is a quick consultation with Dr. Saphner. He can check your teeth and recommend a treatment plan that works for you.
How Does Teeth Whitening Work?
Professional teeth whitening uses a peroxide-based bleaching gel (usually hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide) to break apart the pigments responsible for staining and lifting them from both the surface and deeper layers of your enamel.
The biggest difference between store-bought products and professional teeth whitening in La Crosse is concentration. Our gel is several times stronger, and our custom trays ensure even contact across every tooth. The result is faster, more consistent whitening with less risk of gum irritation or tooth sensitivity.
Take-Home Teeth Whitening
Our take-home kits are simple to use and fit easily into any routine. We'll take impressions of your smile to create a set of custom trays, then send you home with a supply of professional-strength gel.
You’ll simply wear the trays for the recommended time each day and keep up with your oral care as normal. You'll likely notice a difference after just one or two applications, but full results usually develop over about 10 to 14 days. Once treatment is over, you can keep your trays, making touch-ups simple.
Tips for Maintaining Your Brighter Smile
A little consistency goes a long way after teeth whitening. Here are some simple habits to help protect your results:
- Watch What You Eat: Coffee, red wine, dark berries, and soda can easily erase your results. Be sure to rinse with water when you do indulge.
- Regular Oral Care: Brush twice a day and floss before bed as normal. You can also use a whitening toothpaste a few times a week to prevent surface stains from building up.
- Keep Up with Cleanings: Regular professional cleanings with our team can remove tartar and surface stains before they dull your smile.
- Touch Up as Needed: Your custom trays make it easy to refresh your results at home whenever you need a boost. If you need help, just let us know.
