Many people struggling with a stained smile will consult with Dr. John Phillips and the dental specialists at 29th Street Dental Care to explore their whitening options. In many cases, the stains in the tooth enamel are so deep that they simply cannot be safely and effectively removed by the whitening products sold in stores.
To fully whiten your smile, Dr. John Phillips will likely recommend administering a dental bleaching treatment. The potent whitening agent that he employs is the only thing truly strong enough to eradicate stains from your teeth.
After the bleaching treatment, Dr. John Phillips might also use a special ultraviolet light to address any trouble spots and restore the full luster of your smile.
Once your teeth have been completely whitened, Dr. John Phillips often advises taking further measures to maintain your smile between dental cleanings.
One convenient way to do this is to periodically apply whitening strips to the teeth in your smile. The topical form of hydrogen peroxide on the strips can effectively counteract minor surface stains, removing them before they have a chance to set in.
Just be sure to always look for the American Dental Association’s Seal of Acceptance before purchasing any whitening strips. This small logo represents that they have been tested and researched by the ADA for safe oral use.
