Do you have a smile
marred by dental discoloration? Embarrassing teeth stains can cause our smiles
to lose their luster. Thankfully, at Pecan Tree Dental we offer an array of
teeth whitening solutions to brighten your smile. In today’s blog, your GrandPrairie dentist, Dr. Quinn Smith, explains how our whitening systems can
erase stains and brighten your teeth.
What Causes Teeth Stains?
Did you know there
are two types of teeth stains? Extrinsic teeth stains form on the surface of
our teeth and are caused by the drinks and foods we consume, such as soda,
coffee, red wine, and tea. Smoking also leads to extrinsic discoloration.
Intrinsic stains occur when the tooth structure beneath the enamel becomes
discolored, usually through trauma or the use of certain antibiotics, such as
tetracycline.
Teeth Whitening
At Pecan Tree
Dental, we offer two forms of teeth whitening. Zoom! whitening is performed
in-office and brightens smiles by up to eight shades in under an hour. This
form of teeth whitening works great for removing extrinsic stains. We also
offer a convenient at-home whitening solution. Your Grand Prairie cosmetic
dentist will create a custom-made whitening tray based on an impression of
your teeth. Then, he will prescribe a special bleaching formula. Simply wear
the gel-filled trays daily for the amount of time recommended. In about two
weeks you can notice dramatic results. At-home whitening works great for extrinsic
stains and some minor intrinsic stains.
Masking Permanent Stains
In order to brighten
a smile with intrinsic discoloration, we offer the latest in cosmeticdentistry. Porcelain veneers and dental bonding both offer a solution for
masking the appearance of intrinsic stains. Talk to Dr. Smith for more
information.
