It's no secret that lighting up a room with an attractive smile is a huge confidence booster. Over the years, thousands of teeth whitening products and gimmicks have hit the shelves of drug stores all over the world and are being advertised by many popular celebrities on the internet. But these products offer less than impressive results and can leave you with tooth sensitivity problems. Compared with over-the-counter teeth-whitening products, professional teeth whitening performed by a trained dental expert can quickly achieve dramatic results with a reduced risk of developing tooth sensitivity issues.
Receive A Whiter & Brighter Smile With Professional Teeth Whitening Solutions
Even if you maintain a thorough routine of oral hygiene, the yellowing of the teeth is a natural process as you get older. The enamel in your teeth begins to break down and becomes thinner, allowing for the underlying dentin to become visible.
Unfortunately, dentin is naturally yellow and can only be whitened by professional teeth whitening solutions. Over-the-counter products do not have the approval to contain the same ingredients as professional solutions; they often cannot get past the tooth enamel and reach those stubborn stains.
Removing stains through professional teeth whitening can strengthen your teeth, improve the health of your gums, and reduce the risk of developing gum disease. Not only will you be left with a beautiful, bright smile, you will also be improving your oral health.

5 Benefits Of Professional Teeth Whitening Treatments
Thorough And Even Whitening
Professional teeth whitening solutions can target both intrinsic and extrinsic stains. Intrinsic stains are within your tooth enamel and are caused by infection, medication, aging, or tooth trauma. Extrinsic stains are caused by smoking or certain foods and beverages such as red wine and coffee. Over-the-counter products can only (if at all) target extrinsic stains, leaving behind those stubborn, hard-to-reach intrinsic stains. A professional teeth whitening session will target both extrinsic and intrinsic stains, granting you a beautiful, even, white smile.
Speed And Reliability
No more waiting around for 3 months to see if your whitening toothpaste or strips have been working or not. A professional teeth whitening session can give you a noticeably whiter smile in just one hour. The results will be reliable, and with suggested at-home maintenance, long-lasting as well.
Professional Teeth Whitening Will Protect Your Gums
If a teeth whitening bleaching agent comes into contact with your gums, it can cause severe irritation and damage your gums tissue. Over-the-counter products can also break down your enamel and cause tooth sensitivity problems. A professional teeth whitening treatment is much safer and more comfortable because you will have an experienced dental expert performing the procedure and monitoring the progress every step of the way. Your gums and other areas of your mouth will be carefully protected throughout the treatment.
Customized Treatments
Over-the-counter products are one-size-fits-all. You are unable to customize your treatment to achieve your whitening preference. However, professional whitening treatments are customizable to your preferences and can focus on the areas you need whitening the most. Some areas of your teeth may have deeper stains than others and require more bleaching agent to remove the stains. Professional whitening treatments can be customized to the needs of each tooth, leaving you with an even, white smile. Over-the-counter products may only whiten surface stains on your teeth and cannot address the deeper stains, resulting in a patchy, uneven smile.
Receive A Professional Opinion
Not everyone is a good candidate for teeth whitening treatments and most will not know if they are or not until they visit their dentist. If a tooth is discoloured because of a root canal, teeth whitening treatments will be ineffective, and your dentist will recommend other treatment options, such as covering the tooth with a crown or replacing it with a veneer. Instead of wasting time and money on purchasing over-the-counter products that may not work, you will be able to find out the root of the problems causing your tooth discoloration and will be able to receive more effective and faster treatments.

FAQs
How many sessions are required to receive optimal whitening results?
Most people only require one session to see drastic results. After one session that lasts thirty minutes to an hour, your teeth will be several shades whiter. If you have deep stains, your dentist may require you to come back for additional treatments. Your dentist will put together a personalized treatment plan for you so you can achieve your desired results.
How long do results last?
Results will vary from person to person. On average, many people enjoy the results for 2-3 years.
Do teeth whitening treatments hurt?
Professional treatments protect your gums and other areas of your mouth from the bleaching agent used on your teeth so you do not feel any irritation. You may feel slight discomfort from holding your mouth open for a longer time, but you should not feel any pain. If you do feel pain, let your dentist know right away so the bleaching agent does not damage your enamel.
