Benefits of Professional Teeth Whitening Dental Services in Buderim

Tooth whitening is one of the most common and popular cosmetic dental procedures in Buderim. People usually have their teeth whitened to enhance their professional or social image, boost their confidence, and look and feel their best on special occasions like weddings, graduation ceremonies, and black-tie events. Your local Smile On Clinics practice offers safe and affordable whitening solutions to give you the beautiful, youthful, and healthy smile you deserve.

Several factors that can cause teeth to become discoloured and stained include aging, food and beverages, smoking, some medications, trauma, and bad oral hygiene. It can be tempting to buy over-the-counter whitening pens, strips, and gels that promise results in a short space of time and can be used in the convenience of your own home. However, despite the claims, they’re typically less effective than professional treatments from a teeth whitening dentist in Buderim. Reasons that DIY whitening kits might not achieve the results you’re looking for are:

They must contain lower concentrations of whitening ingredients that are required for safe use at home. They can break down surface stains, but they can’t penetrate much deeper.
There’s the potential for people to apply the solutions incorrectly, resulting in uneven whitening and irritation to the gums.
Teeth can become sensitive, or enamel can get damaged when people are mistaken for believing that they will achieve results quicker if they use more product.
The few results that might be experienced are often short-lived, and teeth can get stained again quickly.
They are not always suitable for use by people with sensitive teeth, crowns, or fillings.

Professional treatments offer numerous advantages over DIY kits, including:

A higher concentration of whitening agents that are more effective when breaking down stubborn stains, and you’re more likely to see results faster, provided you follow the dentist’s recommended timescale for appointments.
Customised solutions suited to the condition of your teeth, whether you have surface or deep staining and discolouration. There is a range of professional products designed for use by people with sensitive teeth, crowns, and fillings.
A safer supervised procedure that will protect your gums from getting sore. Your dentist will also ensure that the product is spread evenly and in the correct quantities that are suitable for your teeth.
They offer long-lasting results as long as a good oral hygiene routine is maintained.

Before you have your teeth whitened by one of our dentists, they will carry out pre-treatment tests to determine your suitability for the procedure. If they detect dental problems such as untreated cavities or gum disease, they will recommend that they be resolved before you can proceed to cosmetic dentistry. They will also potentially turn you down for treatment if you’re pregnant or breastfeeding due to a lack of available research on health and safety in this area. If you are found to be ineligible for cosmetic whitening, you can maintain healthy white teeth by brushing and flossing every day, not smoking, and rinsing your mouth with water after consuming food and drinks that could stain your teeth. Alternative professional interventions might include having your teeth cleaned by a hygienist, using a toothpaste that’s formulated for teeth whitening, and having treatment to fix unhealthy and broken teeth.

After you’ve had your teeth whitened, you can expect to receive instructions and advice for looking after your teeth, including tips on how to keep your brighter smile for longer, dietary tips, and recommendations for additional treatments. Your dental professional might also prescribe fluoride treatments and other products if they think you can benefit from them. Read More

What Usually Happens During a Whitening Application Process?

During the whitening procedure for each cycle, your dentist will usually follow these 2 steps:

Applying the whitening gel: A small brush will be used to apply a controlled amount of the whitening agent evenly over each tooth. Your dentist will take extra special care to avoid accidentally touching your gums or soft tissues in your mouth with the brush to prevent gum irritation and discomfort. In general, whitening is a painless process, and any mild sensitivity can be resolved with a toothpaste that your dentist will recommend.

Activating the whitening agent: A blue LED light will be used for around 10-15 minutes to speed up the whitening process.

Results from each whitening session can usually be seen instantly!

4 Myths About Tooth Whitening Debunked

There are some misconceptions that dentists often hear where cosmetic whitening is concerned, and our dentists wanted to debunk some of them.

Having white teeth means they’re healthier overall. We’re afraid that mouths with perfectly spotless white teeth can decay, have cavities, and develop gum disease and other dental conditions. You should still ensure that you’re brushing and flossing properly every day and visiting your dentist every 6 months for routine checks.
Whitening causes enamel to wear down: When carried out by a professional dental practitioner, whitening won’t cause any damage to your teeth’s enamel.
Natural remedies can whiten teeth: Some people are under the impression that strawberries, baking soda, charcoal, and other natural ingredients can be a cheap alternative to professional whitening. Some of these remedies can be abrasive or increase tooth decay when they’re not used properly, and contrary to popular belief, they are not as effective as getting your teeth whitened by a dental professional.
You can only whiten the front teeth: Even though the front teeth will be more visible, it’s still possible to have the back ones whitened too. It’s always best to get all your teeth done professionally to avoid sore gums and infective whitening from improper application of the agent.
