Why You Should Trust Your Teeth Whitening to the Dentist

There are many kits and gels available online and in stores that claim to whiten teeth, but are they safe and effective? Below, we share why you should trust your teeth whitening to the dentist.

Frequently Asked Questions

Teeth whitening treatments can effectively deliver a bright, confidence-boosting smile. However, the safety of your gums and tooth enamel should always be a priority when starting any whitening treatment.  

Ensuring Safe Teeth Whitening

With so many teeth whitening options available, choosing and safely administering the right method makes all the difference. But that’s not the only factor to consider:

  • Start with good oral hygiene — Brush twice daily with fluoride toothpaste and floss daily to remove surface stains, food particles, and plaque. For an added boost, try an ADA-approved whitening toothpaste.
  • Trust the professionals — In-office whitening treatments from your dentist are the safest and most effective option. These treatments use high-quality products, controlled methods, and professional oversight to safely and effectively brighten your smile.
  • At-home, proceed with care —  Over-the-counter whitening products, like strips or trays, can yield solid results but must be used with care to ensure even whitening and avoid sensitivity or weakened enamel.
  • Take measures to maintain your results — To maximize your whitening results, avoid staining foods and drinks like coffee, tea, and red wine, and don’t smoke. Also, drink water regularly and schedule regular cleanings to keep your teeth looking their best.

If you’re considering whitening, consult your dentist first to determine the safest approach for your smile.

Safe and Effective Teeth Whitening in Scottsdale, AZ

If you’re in Scottsdale and want to learn more about your myriad teeth whitening options and select the one best suited for you, contact Dr. Saba Heday and the excellent Dynamite Smiles Dentistry team to schedule a consultation!

Teeth whitening can give you a dazzling smile, but how long will that fresh, bright look actually stick around? The answer depends on a few factors and a little bit on you!

Professional teeth whitening results can last anywhere from six months to two years. If you're diligent about your oral care and mindful of what you eat and drink, your whiter smile could last longer. But you might notice the brightness fading sooner if you're a big fan of coffee, tea, red wine, or other staining foods.

How to Keep Your Smile White 

Daily habits make a huge difference. Brushing twice daily, flossing daily, and whitening toothpaste (approved by your dentist) can help maintain your results. Regular professional cleanings at your dental office also help remove surface stains and keep your smile looking fresh.

Lifestyle choices also matter. Smokers, for example, often see whitening results fade faster because of the tar and nicotine stains.

Touch-Up Whitening and Pro Whitening in Scottsdale, AZ

Touch-up treatments are easy and can extend the life of your whitening results. Many people do a touch-up once or twice a year, often before significant events like weddings, vacations, or family photos.

If you're looking for long-lasting brightness, talk to your dentist about the best teeth whitening options and lifestyle options. A customized plan could help you enjoy that brilliant smile for years!

Reasons for Tooth Discoloration and Staining

An illustration of a whitened toothSeveral factors can contribute to tooth stains, discoloration, and yellowing teeth. Certain foods and beverages we consume can change the color of our teeth, such as dark berries, red wine, coffee, and brown carbonated drinks. Over the years, our teeth can look dull and dark if not properly cleaned or maintained with professional teeth whitening. 

Some common reasons why people can have stained or yellow teeth include:

  • Foods and drinks 
  • Poor dental hygiene 
  • Smoking and tobacco use 
  • Genetics 
  • Aging 
  • Medical conditions
  • Certain medications
  • Excessive fluoride use
  • Trauma
  • Metal restorations

If you are unhappy with the color of your teeth, professional teeth whitening may be the cosmetic dental treatment for you. Dynamite Smiles Dentistry offers effective tooth whiteners that are safe for tooth enamel and sensitive teeth. Dr. Saba Heday offers in-office whitening sessions and at-home whitening kits for convenient touch-ups. 

Professional Teeth Whitening vs. Store-Bought Whitening

Over-the-counter teeth whitening kits may seem popular, but they are not nearly as safe or effective as professional teeth whitening. Kits you can buy at the store are one-size-fits-all and can result in splotchy whitening, tooth sensitivity, and gum irritation. Whitening strips and other teeth whitening products may also be too abrasive on the teeth and have unwanted side effects.

Dynamite Smiles Dentistry creates customized treatments for each patient who desires brighter, stain-free teeth. With our professional in-office whitening sessions and at-home kits, you can maintain a flawless, white smile. 

Our Teeth Whitening Treatments 

We tailor each treatment to satisfy your individual needs, and Dr. Heday will determine what type of whitening method is best for you. She typically uses a combination of in-office whitening and take-home whitening to deliver dramatic results.

In-Office Teeth Whitening

Dr. Heday will choose a safe, professional-grade whitening gel with your whitening goals and level of sensitivity in mind. She applies the gel with custom-made applicator trays, which we design for maximum comfort and gum protection. Your teeth can dramatically lighten by several shades in a single whitening session at Dynamite Smiles Dentistry. 

At-Home Teeth Whitening 

We often prescribe custom at-home whitening kits so patients can maintain their white, blemishless smile. At-home kits allow you to whiten your teeth at your own pace and in the comfort of your home without needing to schedule a dental appointment. The applicator trays in your at-home kit will be customized to fit your teeth. Dr. Heday will give you specific instructions on how to use the whitening kit safely. 

After your whitening treatment, we will schedule a follow-up appointment to check your progress.
