What is teeth whitening?

Teeth whitening is a process that lightens your teeth. Also called tooth bleaching, whitening products contain peroxide-based solutions that break apart tooth stains. Most solutions contain either hydrogen or carbamide peroxide. When applied to discolored teeth, whitening products react with stains to brighten your smile.

How does teeth whitening work?

Hydrogen and carbamide peroxide contain volatile oxygen molecules that attract stain molecules. When they interact, the stains break down into smaller pieces, making them easier to remove. 

While over-the-counter (OTC) products are peroxide-based, their concentrations are not as high as professional solutions. The fastest way to lighten the color of your teeth is through chairside teeth whitening.

What can I expect from teeth whitening?

Teeth whitening is a safe, effective treatment. Capitol Premier Dental Group offers Sinsational Smile teeth whitening for patients looking to enhance the color of their teeth quickly without the pain and sensitivity of more aggressive treatments.

Sinsational Smile uses a pre-filled tray to whiten your teeth. An LED light activates the whitening solutions to remove up to 1 ½ shades’ worth of stains in 20 minutes*. The team sends you home with a take-home whitening pen to help maintain your brighter smile.

How many teeth whitening treatments will I need?

Most people see noticeably brighter teeth in just one whitening treatment. However, the team may recommend additional treatments to enhance your results. During your first visit, the team works with you to determine the number of visits you may need.

How long do teeth whitening results last?

Many factors can influence the color of your teeth. If you want to maintain your results, you should limit your intake of foods and drinks, such as:

• Coffee and tea
• Red wine
• Soy sauce
• Marinara sauce
• Curry
• Soda and sugary juices

Enamel keeps your teeth white. If it starts to thin, it can expose the darker dentin underneath. Many people have thin enamel due to genetics. Certain medications, tobacco use, and age can also darken your teeth, particularly if you have naturally thin enamel.

The team can perform a comprehensive dental evaluation to create a teeth whitening plan that works for your needs and lifestyle.
