More and more the aesthetics of teeth are of great importance
to patients, including tooth color. The color
of 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 teeth whitening. Where oral health care used to be the primary
role of a dentist,
in the past 10 years the importance of teeth whitening has seen a dramatic rise
in the number of tooth whitening products and procedures to come onto the
marketplace. Not only has the
relationship of the dentist and patient changed, but the demand by the consumer for cookie cutter results
to 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 continues to demand further research and perfection. The key factors that affect tooth whitening efficacy by
peroxide containing products are a function of peroxide concentration, light
exposure and the allocation of application time. In general, higher concentrations of peroxide
provide results faster than lower concentrations. And what appears to be a
demand for immediate gratification by the consumer apparently drives the need
to develop systems that deliver higher concentrations of peroxide in shorter application
time periods.
Your smile is
the first thing people notice. And our goal is to help you smile, but we want
to make sure it's the right smile, one that's natural and comfortable for you. If
stained teeth are "hiding" the real you, it's time for what is
commonly referred to as a smile make over. It is understood that a beautiful
smile can brighten your lifestyle
every day, both professionally and socially. And unlike plastic surgery, teeth whitening
isn't a major operation. Imagine coming
in for a single appointment or 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.
You can be assured that as a prosthodontist, I
understand the functional mechanics as well as the cosmetic artistry needed to
evaluate and create the right smile
for you. Your goals for achieving the smile you want and the dental health you
need are my first priority in our Sandy Springs office.
