More and more the esthetics of teeth are of great importance
to patients, including tooth color. The color
of the teeth is influenced by a combination of their natural color and the
presence of any external stains that may form on the tooth surface. The type of natural stain and initial tooth color
can play a significant role in the ultimate outcome of tooth bleaching. Where oral health care used to be the primary
function of a dentist,
in the past 10 years the importance of tooth whitening for patients has seen a
dramatic rise in the number of tooth whitening products and procedures to come
onto the marketplace. The relationship
of the doctor and patient has changed.
And the demand by the consumer
to kind of cookie cutter the results of esthetic dentistry is supplanting the
traditional approach to oral health care.
There are a number of approaches to measuring tooth color
changes following tooth whitening; each with their own advantages and
disadvantages; and given the consumer’s demand for continued esthetic emphasis,
tooth whitening will continue to demand further research and perfection. The key factors that affect tooth whitening efficacy by
peroxide containing products are a function of peroxide concentration, to a
limited degree, light exposure and the allocation of application time. In general, higher concentrations provide
results faster than lower concentrations. While lower concentrations approach a
similar degree of results as higher concentrations with extended treatment
times, what appears to be a demand for immediate gratification by the consumer
apparently drives a propensity to develop systems that deliver higher
concentrations of peroxide with shorter application time periods.

the first thing people notice. And our goal is to help you smile, but we want

two and emerging with the smile you've always wanted. The results are immediate
and dramatic. There are many ways you can receive a youthful, attractive,
natural looking smile.
