Teeth whitening Treatments in Plano, TX
As we age, our teeth will naturally become discolored. Teeth whitening can take years off your appearance in a single visit. It is the most requested cosmetic treatment because it’s affordable and quick. The ZOOM Teeth Whitening process is also completely safe.
Dr. Sowell and Dr. Chen provide Zoom Whitening because it offers the best results in the least amount of time. The best option for teeth whitening gives more comfortable, consistent, and long-lasting results.
Cheap teeth whitening solutions require more work and won’t give you the best results. However, teeth whitening at the dentist gives you the piece of mind that you have a professional by your side.
Dr. Sowell and Dr. Chen find that ZOOM! WhiteSpeed In-office treatment offers the quickest, most profound results. Especially when combined with custom bleaching trays and desensitizing solutions.
You will get the trays once we achieve the initial results from ZOOM WhiteSpeed In-office for you. The custom trays will allow you to continue to brighten your teeth at home with touch-ups. Our premier professional whitening program keeps the results from fading years down the road.
The advantages of ZOOM whitening include:
- No messy whitening gel trays to wear and fumble with.
- The active ingredient is hydrogen peroxide.
- Complete in just one hour so you can get back to your daily routine.
- Dramatic results that last longer than a store-bought whitening product.
Alternative Teeth Whitening Options
We offer at-home teeth whitening with custom trays designed to fit your smile. These trays use different strengths of whitening solutions, including budget-friendly options. As always, we’ll help you choose the best solution based on your goals and needs.
For some patients, teeth whitening alone will not remove deep stains. In these cases, Dr. Sowell and Dr. Chen offer additional options like tooth bonding and porcelain veneers.
Tooth bonding is an affordable way to fix stains and other imperfections. During the procedure, we apply a tooth-colored resin to the affected area and shape it to blend naturally with your smile. While not permanent, bonding can last for several years with good oral care.
Porcelain veneers are another option for a more permanent result. These thin, custom-made shells bond to the front of your teeth to cover imperfections like stains, or uneven surfaces. Veneers are highly resistant to stains, so you can enjoy a brighter smile without worrying about future discoloration.
If you’re looking for a simpler option, over-the-counter whitening products like strips or pens are also available. However, these treatments may not be as effective as professional whitening and can sometimes cause unpredictable side effects. No matter your needs, we’ll work with you to find the best way to achieve the bright, confident smile you deserve.
Teeth Whitening FAQs
Can I Whiten Dental Restorations Like Veneers or Crowns?
No, traditional teeth whitening will not work on dental restorations. Most modern dental restorations consist of highly stain-resistant compounds. Using mouthwash and fluoride toothpaste regularly can prevent stains from forming on your teeth and dental work.
Will Teeth Whitening Leave Me Sensitive to Hot and Cold Foods?
The teeth whitening procedure removes surface stains and can temporarily leave your teeth sensitive. This is normal and will go away after a couple of days. Treatment exposes fresh tooth enamel, which is why you experience sensitivity. All you have to do is avoid hot or cold foods briefly.
Is Teeth Whitening Permanent?
No. All whitening services, whether done at the dentist or not, are not permanent. You will need routine whitening treatments to keep your teeth perfectly white for a long time. Diligent brushing, flossing, using mouthwash, and visiting the dentist will ensure your treatment lasts longer. You will also not need as many follow-up treatments.
What Foods Should I Avoid for the Longest-lasting Results?
Believe it or not, what you eat can affect the health and appearance of your new white smile. A healthy, well-balanced diet can keep your teeth strong, healthy, and brighter for longer. Beverages high in acidity or strong color, like coffee and wine, can age and stain your teeth.
Foods high in calcium, like cheese and yogurt, can strengthen tooth enamel. Broccoli can help scrub teeth clean, and strawberries can help naturally whiten teeth. Also, remember to brush your teeth often and floss regularly to help them stay white.
How Long Does Professional Whitening Last?
Professional teeth whitening results usually last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years. The length of time can vary depending on how well you care for your teeth. Many people choose to have touch-up treatments regularly to keep their smile looking its best. The effects of the treatment are instant, so you’ll notice a big difference in the whiteness of your teeth right after your appointment.
Is Teeth Whitening Safe?
Yes, teeth whitening is generally safe, especially when a dental professional administers it. However, follow all the instructions when using whitening products at home. For example, don’t use too much gel or leave the mouthpiece in for too long. This will help avoid negative side effects and make sure your treatment is safe.
