We often get asked what is the best way to whiten my teeth? There are three options or over-the-counter options for teeth whitening.
There are custom trays that you do at home, and then there’s in-office whitening. And it kind of depends what you’re looking for and also what kind of stain you have on your teeth.
For young people with very little stain over the counter is often effective.
Then there’s custom trays that’s an in office solution where we scan the teeth and we make really great fitting custom trays. You do the whitening at home though. This is for people who don’t have a lot of staying and aren’t looking for the Hollywood smile. They just want to brighten up their teeth.
And then there’s an office whitening, and then there’s a combination of that too. My very favorite in office whitening is an option where you whiten for two weeks at home, then you come in our office for the in-office portion, and then you continue to whiten at home. And the combination seems to be really effective. This is for people who have more stain or they have higher expectations. They want the brightest smile that they can get. If people have gray brown stains or lines on their teeth, we have to go a step up in whitening from there. It usually takes a little bit longer but it does include in-office whitening with that deeper darker stain correction too.
