Dental Whitening Is Best When Done with Your Dentist

Professional Teeth Whitening at Home in Surrey BC Area

If you have been considering teeth whitening but aren’t sure if you should try an over-the-counter product or see your dentist for an at-home professional treatment, it is important that you understand the differences between these options. An at-home whitening treatment you can buy at your local drug or grocery store may cost less and be more convenient. However, the results you can get in Surrey, British Columbia when visiting the team at Surrey Place Dental Group are superior and involve fewer risks.

More Efficient Results

It does not matter which method of teeth whitening you ultimately choose. Any teeth whitening treatment will use hydrogen peroxide as a bleaching agent in the solution used. The whitening solution used by your dentist for a professional take-home treatment will consist of 15-43 percent hydrogen peroxide. But, an over-the-counter treatment will contain only 3-20 percent peroxide. When you elect for a professionally provided at-home treatment with a higher peroxide concentration, you will see faster and better results that last longer.

Additionally, you will receive instructions and have the ability to contact your dentist if you have any concerns. Over-the-counter treatments can take weeks or even months only to show inferior results. In contrast, professional at-home treatment will produce superior results safely and effectively.

Professional Oversight

A significant advantage that a professionally provided at-home treatment holds over one you buy at your local drug store is that you will receive treatment oversight both before and during the course of your treatment to ensure that the results you get are excellent. When you first see your dentist, your teeth will be examined to verify your good candidacy for a whitening treatment. This step is essential to avoid results that would be less than perfect.

Additionally, your dentist will clean your teeth and make sure any existing plaque and tartar are removed before providing you with your take-home treatment. Your dentist will be available to you throughout the whitening treatment to ensure nothing goes wrong so that there is minimal tooth sensitivity or irritation of the gums afterward.

When you choose a whitening kit from your local store, you’re on your own. What you get are results that are uneven and less than optimal. There is often no number you can call to get help if you have questions about the instructions.

Longer Lasting Results

When you look for an over-the-counter whitening option that you can do from the comfort of your own home, you will see that there is a never-ending line of options, including whitening toothpaste, strips, mouthwashes, etc. These products work by removing discoloration from the tooth’s surface. A professional at-home whitening does so much more by penetrating your teeth and producing far more dramatic and lasting results.

Schedule A Professional Whitening Today!

Your local Surrey, BC, dentist provides an at-home teeth whitening option, which produces excellent results compared to over-the-counter options. To schedule an appointment with Surrey Place Dental Group, please call (604) 969-4212 today.
