 Take a walk around the drug store and you will see many products that promise to make your teeth whiter. These products range from toothpaste to gels to whitening kits. Their packaging makes them look as if they can perform miracles. When people see these products and the price of these over the counter products, they may wonder why anyone would go to a dentist to have their teeth whitened. A little research will turn up these three reasons for having our offices whiten your teeth. Reason #1 - Safer and BetterThe first reason to turn to professional whitening from our office has to do with the product. The over the counter products are not as strong as the products we have access to.They also can create problems for sensitive gums and teeth. Our professionals are trained to use the products properly and know how to watch for any problems with the teeth and gums when the using the product. Reason #2 - Proper UseWhen you get an OTC product it is typically a one size fits all. The problem is that it does not offer a perfect fit for anyone. At our office, we make sure the products we use fit properly and the correct about of whitening agents are used, so the results you get are much better.Reason #3 We Are FasterIt may seem that buying a product at a drug store and doing it at home is faster but take some time to read the instructions on the OTC products. They require you to keep the product on your teeth for several hours and to repeat the process over a period of days.We offer a whitening process that requires a one-hour visit. You walk out the doors the same day with whiter, and brighter teeth. We know that the advertisers make it seem like these OTC products are the perfect way to get a great smile. We also know that the products never work as well as the advertisements claim. If you really want to get your teeth whiter in a way that is safer, better, easier and faster, give us a call at our offices to schedule an appointment. |
