Common FAQ About Teeth Whitening

How long will my teeth remain white after treatment?

http://www.DrMohanty.com

If your teeth are properly whitened, you should be able to maintain a

pearly white smile for about 1 year before considering going for another

touch up.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

However, it is important to avoid the root causes of teeth discoloration by

maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

If you want you teeth to stay white longer, then cut back on coffee, tea,

dark wines, colas and colored processed foods.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

And whenever you do partake of these, remember to rinse out your

mouth immediately with water, brush your teeth or eat a crunchy fruit or

vegetable like an apple, celery stick or carrot stick.

How much does it cost?

http://www.DrMohanty.com

Well, teeth whitening can be both cheap and expensive.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

It all depends on your budget, the condition of your teeth and what kind

of results you want to get.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

Home kits and products can cost from $6-40, while a visit to your dentist for a whitening treatment can cost about

$400-500 per session.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

Home kits are cheap but the results take time to see, while a dental visit

can get you a pearly white smile in less than an hour and successfully whiten even the worst of dark stained teeth.

What are the best products to use?

http://www.DrMohanty.com

There are lots of whitening products on the market and it’s often confusing

on what’s best.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

Basically look for well-known brand name products and find out what other consumers are saying about their experience with the product.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

If in doubt, consult your dentist who will advise you on the best products

for your teeth.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

Do I need to visit my dentist or can I whiten my teeth at home?

http://www.DrMohanty.com

Either option is alright but in certain cases, a trip to the dentist will do you

well.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

If you have had dental problems in the past or have fillings, veneers, crowns or braces, then you definitely need to

consult your dentist.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

Also if you have very dark brown stains or your tooth appears to be gray, then home treatments will not whiten your teeth much and you will need in-office

treatment.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

Finally, the dentist route is best if you want quick results, but if you have the patience to wait things out, you can do

it at home.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

Will teeth whitening treatments damage my teeth?

http://www.DrMohanty.com

If used correctly, no.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

Tests have shown that the 10% peroxide level doesn’t damage your

teeth enamel or any dental work such as fillings or crowns.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

The only effects are tooth sensitivity which usually disappears after a few

days.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

When will I see results?

http://www.DrMohanty.com

If you use home whitening products then you should see results after 2-4

weeks.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

If you choose a professional treatment at your dentist’s office, your teeth should be whiter in 45minutes to 1

hour.

http://www.DrMohanty.com

However if your teeth are badly stained, you may need to attend another teeth whitening session.
