Teeth Whitening
This procedure is also sometimes referred to as bleaching. We take an impression of the teeth and make custom whitening trays. Then we dispense the whitening agent and give instructions regarding its use. In this office, we use only 10% cabamide peroxide, as we feel that higher dosages could cause increased sensitivity to teeth and possibly damage the supporting gum tissues. We have patients return for shade checks (monitoring progress with a shade guide) as well as checking the health of the gums.
