Who Is a Good Candidate for Take-Home Teeth Whitening?
If you’re interested in achieving a brighter smile, there’s a very good chance that a take-home teeth whitening kit would be a good choice for you! We use professional-grade Opalescence Go™ whitening kits, which use much more powerful ingredients than anything you can buy in stores. Our teeth whitening kits can be used to address stubborn enamel discoloration and years of stains.
To make sure you’re a good candidate, we’ll first meet with you for a consultation. Oral health issues like gum disease or cavities can make teeth whitening very uncomfortable, so these issues will need to be treated first if they are present. We’ll also evaluate the type of enamel stains that you wish to have removed. Opalescence Go™ can address nearly all types of tooth discoloration, but should we discover that it’s not a good fit for you, we’ll help you discover which treatment would best help you achieve the beautiful smile you deserve.
How Does Take-Home Teeth Whitening Work?
If you are considered a good candidate for teeth whitening and you’d like to move forward with it, we’ll give you an Opalescence Go™ take-home teeth whitening kit. No uncomfortable impressions or waiting for molds to be created required! Inside the kit you’ll find a specialized tray called the UltraFit tray, which is designed to fit over your teeth. These trays are pre-loaded with a whitening solution, so all you have to do is pop them into place!
You’ll wear your whitening trays for a set amount of time every day, typically between 20 and 60 minutes. This will give the whiteners enough time to sink into the enamel and break up the discolored particles. It will only take a few days of this routine to achieve the dazzling smile you’ve always wanted!
Tips for Maintaining Your Brighter Smile
While no teeth whitening treatment is permanent, there are several things you can do to help maximize the lifespan of your results. With the right care, your smile can stay bright for a year or more! Keep those pearly whites shining with these simple tips:
- Brush your teeth for two minutes twice a day
- Use a fluoridated toothpaste and a soft-bristled toothbrush
- Limit consumption of dark-colored foods and drinks
- Drink staining beverages like coffee and wine through a straw
- Visit us twice a year for your routine checkups and cleanings
Take-Home Teeth Whitening FAQs
What’s the Difference Between Store-Bought Teeth Whitening & Professional Take-Home Whitening?
At first glance, our take-home teeth whitening kits may seem pretty similar to the teeth whitening products you can buy online or at your local pharmacy. But don’t be fooled! They’re actually quite different, particularly when it comes to results. Our teeth whitening products use high-quality, professional ingredients that are much more powerful than anything you can buy over the counter. Using a store-bought teeth whitener may take weeks and weeks of use just to achieve subpar results and cause tooth sensitivity in the meantime. On the other hand, you can count on our take-home teeth whitening products to dramatically and safely improve the appearance of your smile in just a matter of days!
Will Take-Home Teeth Whitening Make My Teeth Sensitive?
The number one complaint from people who use store-bought teeth whiteners (aside from the lackluster results) is tooth sensitivity. If not used correctly, teeth whitening can weaken your enamel and irritate your gums, causing your teeth to feel very sensitive.
Fortunately, you have nothing to worry about with a professional take-home teeth whitener! The whitening agent is specifically designed to reduce any sensitivity to the enamel, so the vast majority of patients don’t feel any discomfort at all. Plus, the whitening trays themselves will be molded to your unique smile, ensuring even better, more comfortable results.
How Long Does Take-Home Teeth Whitening Take?
The big question is when can you expect to have a brighter smile? With our Opalescence Go™ take-home teeth whitening kits, you can begin to see your teeth become whiter in a matter of days! Generally, it will take about two weeks to reach its full whitening potential. However, it’s important to keep in mind that how long the process will take will highly depend on how well you care for your oral health and if you’re following your whitening treatment plan!
Is Take-Home Teeth Whitening Permanent?
You can fully expect your shiny results to last several months to a year as long as you take good care of them! This includes brushing your teeth for two minutes twice a day, avoiding staining foods and beverages, and drinking plenty of water. Coming in for your biannual dental checkups and cleanings can make a huge difference as well. In addition to that detailed cleaning and polishing, we can give you personalized recommendations for how to keep your pearly whites bright. Should you be interested in it, we can even discuss a take-home teeth whitening touch-up treatment!
Is Teeth Whitening Covered By Dental Insurance?
Like most cosmetic dental procedures, teeth whitening is very rarely covered by dental insurance. However, you’ll be happy to hear that teeth whitening is one of the most affordable cosmetic options available! At Limestone Dentistry, we want you to enjoy the happy, healthy, and confident smile you deserve. Should the price of professional take-home teeth whitening be a concern for you, we would be more than happy to work with you to find a solution.
