Stop Hiding Your Smile, Get Your Teeth Cleaned
Your teeth can lose their sparkle for a number of reasons. If you smoke or drink dark beverages such as coffee, your teeth will stain over time. Exposure to excessive amounts of fluoride as a child can cause your teeth to appear stained and mottled, and the antibiotic tetracycline, when taken at a young age, can cause your teeth to discolor during development. Also, the hard outer layer of the teeth, the enamel, can wear with age, revealing the natural yellow color of the underlying dentin. Whatever the cause of your discolored teeth, Dr. Henry has a solution that will penetrate both the enamel and dentin to reveal whiter, brighter teeth.
At-Home Teeth Whitening from Your Erlanger Dentist
Take-home whitening trays from Dr. Henry offer professional results in the privacy and comfort of your own home. Using a custom-fitted mouth tray that holds the professional-grade bleaching gel against your teeth, at-home whitening is safe, effective, and affordable, as Dr. Henry offers this treatment for only $100. The high concentration of peroxide will penetrate stains in both the enamel and dentin while keeping your tooth structure intact. After just 10 to 14 days of wearing your whitening trays, you will have a brilliant, youthful-looking smile to show the world.
Maintaining Your White Teeth
Your teeth whitening results will not last forever, but taking certain measures will help extend the amount of time between treatments. Maintaining good oral hygiene and avoiding tooth-staining foods and beverages will help your teeth stay white longer, and Dr. Henry recommends using a touch-up whitening treatment whenever you notice your bright smile is starting to fade.
