Are
you tired of hiding your teeth every time
you smile? Wouldn’t it be nice to have a
big, bright, beautiful smile? Well, tooth
bleaching isn't just for the movie stars,
and it isn't just for one day. Millions
of people have had their teeth bleached,
and probably millions more are thinking
about it. Tooth Whitening will safely lighten the color of the teeth,
reduce discoloration and staining and give
you a brighter smile which will last for
up to five years.
The
term "teeth
whitening" can refer to a number
of techniques to improve the brightness
of the patient's teeth. Among them are at-home
tooth whitening, power bleaching and the
latest technology,laser
teeth whitening.
Why
have my teeth lost there whiteness? |
There
are many causes. The most common include
genetics, aging, consumption of staining
substances (smoking, coffee, tea, and
sweet drinks), tetracycline (antibiotic)
staining, excessive fluoride, and old
fillings.
Staining
is not the only factor that can affect
the color of an individual's teeth.
Some people just have naturally brighter
teethl than others. There can also be
medical reasons for any change in the
color of your teeth. This may be a side-effect
of the medication or in some cases discoloration
may be caused by the disease itself.
If you suspect that there is an underlying
medical cause for your teeth discoloration,
be sure to inform our cosmetic dentists. |
