What is teeth whitening?

Teeth whitening at Dental Studio of Pasadena uses advanced ZOOM! technology from Koninklijke Philips, NV, in Amsterdam, Netherlands. ZOOM! breaks up and removes stains from your teeth without pain or invasive procedures. ZOOM! in-office treatments make stained teeth up to eight shades whiter after just one 45-minute treatment.

You can also take advantage of professional-strength at-home whitening kits available at Dental Studio of Pasadena if you prefer to whiten your teeth yourself.

Why does teeth staining happen?

Teeth staining is often inevitable, even with excellent oral hygiene habits. The following foods, drinks, and lifestyle choices contribute to stained teeth:

• Smoking
• Some medications
• Poor oral hygiene
• Skipped professional dental cleanings
• Older age
• Red wine
• Cola
• Green tea
• Coffee
• Spaghetti sauce
• Popsicles
• Dark juices
• Soy sauce

You don’t have to give up the foods and drinks you love. Simply schedule teeth whitening sessions at Dental Studio of Pasadena periodically to maintain a bright, vibrant smile.

Is teeth whitening right for me?

Nearly everyone benefits from ZOOM! teeth whitening with the Dental Studio of Pasadena team. After discussing your preferences, lifestyle, and oral health history, your specialist lets you know which whitening treatment best suits your needs.

Your dentist also examines your teeth and gums and the results of your most recent dental X-rays to ensure you don’t have any decay, tooth damage, or gum disease. If you do, they treat these dental problems in addition to whitening your teeth.

What should I expect during teeth whitening?

During a teeth whitening treatment, your dentist places teeth-whitening trays and gel on the surface of your teeth. They often use a painless LED light to enhance the whitening process. Your treatment takes about 45 minutes. Afterward, there’s no downtime, so you can enjoy your beautiful white smile right away.

If you choose to whiten your teeth at home, put the whitening gel in the take-home trays, apply the trays to your teeth, then remove the trays when you’re done.

What happens after my treatment?

After teeth whitening, keep your teeth as white as possible by using whitening toothpaste to brush them after meals. Floss daily and use whitening mouthwash if your dentist recommends it. See the Dental Studio of Pasadena providers every six months for routine dental cleanings and exams, and professionally whiten your teeth whenever needed.
