    Whiten That Smile!

    By Ramy Bahu, DDS | Blog | Comments are Closed | 30 April, 2019 | 0

    There’s always some things we’d like to change about ourselves. When it comes to our smiles, many of us would love to have a brighter, whiter smile. Luckily, this is something that can be accomplished with the help of Dr. Ramy Bahu.

    You have a variety of teeth whitening treatment options to choose from. First, you can use teeth whitening trays. You can purchase these from your dentist, and this is done at-home. You fill the trays with a gel, and you wear them for short periods of time. With this procedure, it can take between a couple of days to a couple of weeks to achieve the desire effect, depending on the needs of your smile. If you choose this option, you will receive trays that are customized to fit your teeth to avoid any irritation to your gums. To make an appointment with a dentist you can try here.

    Another great option would be an in-office whitening treatment. Your dentist would apply a bleaching agent to your teeth, and a special laser light is directed at the coated teeth to expedite the process. This is achieved in a single session at the dentist, so you will see the results much more quickly. For the lawyers practicing dentist offices, there are many professional dental practice plans, of which whitening can also be one of the major options.

    Both options are very effective in whitening your teeth. If you prefer to brighten your smile in the comfort of your home, then whitening trays might be more appealing to you. However, if you are looking for quicker results, you might want to choose to stop in to see your dentist and have the procedure done at the office. If you choose to undergo an in-office procedure, it is important to follow the after-care instructions that you will receive. This includes abstaining from eating or drinking anything expect water for at least an hour after the treatment. Also, you should avoid any tooth-staining foods for 24-48 hours.

    If you are thinking about teeth whitening, you should consult your Streeterville Dentist to explore your options. Your dentist can evaluate your smile and ensure that your teeth and gums are healthy enough to go through the bleaching process. No matter what you decide, you can take steps on your own to prevent future staining. This includes consistently following your brushing and flossing routine, using a straw to minimize contact between your teeth and the drinks you consume, and rinsing after you eat.
