Having a beautiful smile may be even easier than you think. Many people achieve the look they’ve been dreaming of with our simple “whitening” procedure.

TEETH WHITENING IN BOULDER, CO

Having a beautiful smile may be even easier than you think. Many people achieve the look they’ve dreamed of with cosmetic dentistry in Boulder, Colorado, including our simple teeth whitening procedure. 

For confidence in appearance, bleaching technology allows us to promise improvements in yellowing, aging, or stained teeth. Crowns or dental veneers may be more appropriate for very severely stained teeth. However, we can help you decide which whitening solution is right for you. Call us today at Boulder Dental Designs.

WHAT ARE THE DETAILS OF TEETH WHITENING?

It’s safe, quick, and inexpensive. Just let us know if you want to whiten your teeth at any appointment. We use whitening to correct tooth discoloration, which can be caused by staining, aging, or chemical damage to teeth. 

Using the latest whitening technology, we can offer a safe method for creating a beautiful, brilliant smile. In cases of extreme tooth discoloration, crowns or veneers may be the best choice, but because of the low cost of whitening treatments, teeth whitening is nearly always worth a solid try.

You can lighten only your upper teeth or both the upper and lower, depending on how much you show when you talk and smile.

In only a day or two, your custom bleach splints will be ready for you to pick up. We provide you with a special bleaching agent to put into the clear splints. With only 30 minutes of wear per day, our bleaching agent removes stains right out of your enamel in a short time without altering tooth structure or existing dental work in any way. 

When your teeth reach the desired brightness, only occasional treatment is needed to maintain your new smile. We’ll take before and after photos at your appointments to compare the difference.

HOW IS TEETH WHITENING DONE?

An impression is taken to make a specialized “mouth guard” or “stent” to hold the bleach against the teeth.

The material is used each day for 30 minutes to 1 hour (depending on which strength of whitening gel you choose)  for a week or two, and at the end of this time, significant whitening will occur.

KEY BENEFITS OF TEETH WHITENING

• • • Corrects brown, yellow, and spotted tooth staining
    • Works on people of any age
    • Is a near-permanent solution for a “dull” smile, restoring brightness and brings a smile alive

In some cases, the change is nothing short of brilliant. For confidence in appearance, bleaching technology allows us to promise improvements in yellowing, aging, or stained teeth. For very severely stained teeth, crowns or dental veneers may be more appropriate.

CONSIDERATIONS FOR TEETH WHITENING

Over-the-counter bleaching agents are available for purchase at drug stores and pharmacies. However, since these products can cause harm to the gums and teeth, it’s better to use products that our practice recommends.

SHOULD I USE OVER-THE-COUNTER OR PROFESSIONAL TEETH WHITENING SOLUTIONS?

Over-the-counter bleaching agents are available for purchase at drug stores and pharmacies. However, since these products can cause harm to the gums and teeth, it’s better to use products that our practice recommends. Additionally, over-the-counter whitening solutions are typically not as effective compared to whitening solutions at Boulder Dental Designs. 

Your dentist will take an impression of your teeth to prepare for your professional whitening process. They create a custom-made splint to apply the whitening solution onto. The whitening solution will reach all the crevices around your teeth with a custom splint, ensuring the entire tooth is whitened. 

Another advantage of professional whitening is that professional whitening solutions will whiten your teeth faster than other-the-counter solutions.
