Tooth whitening has become one of the most popular dental procedures in California. It seems that everyone in Daly City is whitening their teeth to help their smiles look younger and brighter. Many consumers in the San Francisco area are turning to over-the-counter solutions to whiten their teeth, however their can be dangers and pitfalls to this approach.
Here is some basic advice on teeth whitening from Kenneth Hovden DDS:
First, we encourage you to visit our office in Daly City before starting a tooth whitening system. It is a good idea to have your teeth checked and analyzed before starting a tooth whitening program. Tooth whitening is not for everyone, and depends on your dental history.
Dr. Hovden at Kenneth Hovden DDS can help you determine whether your teeth can be whitened safely and effectively. We can also recommend tooth whitening solutions that will work best for you. Kenneth Hovden DDS is a good cosmetic dentist to start for this important decision.
There are many pitfalls to be aware of when whitening your teeth. Over-the-counter teeth whitening products available in the Daly City area will provide varying degrees of effectiveness on your teeth. If used improperly, tooth whitening solutions can cause problems including tooth sensitivity, over whitening, damage to your tooth enamel, and irregular coloration. Whitening too much can even have a reverse effect, making your teeth look gray. Additionally some stains cannot be removed with whitening and need porcelain veneers.
Most tooth whitening product manufacturers recommend that you visit your local Daly City dentist when things go wrong with your over-the-counter tooth whitening solution. We recommend you begin with the professionals at Kenneth Hovden DDS to get started with a tooth whitening solution that will give you the best tooth whitening results.
