Book AppointmentWhat to Expect from a Teeth Whitening Treatment
Depending on your needs and preferences, you might prefer an in-office or take-home whitening treatment. In-office whitening typically involves applying a professional whitening gel, which is activated or left on for a set amount of time. Take-home kits include custom trays and gel that you use at home for gradual whitening.
All teeth are different and can respond differently to whitening treatments. Fillings, crowns, and veneers can’t be whitened during this process, but they can be replaced to match the new shade of your teeth.
What Causes Teeth Discolouration?
If you’ve noticed your teeth appear more yellowed, have dark flecks or white spots, or are generally less bright, there are several potential causes. Visiting your dental clinic for your regularly scheduled exam and teeth cleaning can help brighten things up.
A teeth whitening treatment can make even more of a difference, especially when combined with healthy oral habits. Stains and discolouration can typically be categorized into 3 different types: extrinsic, intrinsic, and age-related.
Extrinsic discolouration includes stains that affect only the surface of the tooth or the tooth enamel. This typically comes from:
- Food such as red sauces or chocolate
- Beverages such as coffee, red wine, and tea
- Tobacco in the form of cigarettes or chewing tobacco
Intrinsic stains are caused by something going wrong within the tooth. These teeth often look more grey in colour. These stains can come from:
- Certain medications
- An injury to the tooth
- Tooth decay
- Excessive amounts of fluoride
- Genetics
- Certain diseases
Your tooth enamel wears down over time, allowing staining or yellowing to occur. While this change is often considered an unavoidable part of life, teeth whitening may help.
Age-related discolouration can also come from a combination of extrinsic and intrinsic factors.
Freshen Up Your Smile
With Philips Zoom, your whitening treatment can typically be completed in a single visit, with many patients noticing visible results after their appointment. Our team will guide you through the process and provide recommendations to help maintain your brighter smile.
