Having a beautiful smile may be even easier than you think. Many people achieve the look they've been dreaming of with our simple “bleaching” procedure.
It's safe, quick, and inexpensive. Dental bleaching can be used to correct tooth discoloration caused by staining, aging, or chemical damage to teeth. Using the latest in bleaching technology, we offer a safe method for creating a “brilliant” smile. In cases of extreme tooth discoloration, crowns or veneers may be the only choice, but because of the low cost of bleaching treatments, bleaching is nearly always worth a try.
Just let us know if you would like to whiten your teeth. You can lighten only your upper teeth or both the upper and lower, depending on how many teeth show when you talk and smile. A day or two after we take an impression of your teeth your custom bleach trays will be ready. We provide you with a special bleaching agent that you put into the clear trays. With only a few hours of wear per day, our special bleaching agent bubbles stains out of your enamel without altering tooth structure or existing dental work. When your teeth reach the desired brightness, only occasional treatment is needed to maintain your new smile.
An impression is taken to make a specialized tray to hold the bleach against the teeth. The concentrated bleach Dr. Repanich recommends is used each night for 30 minutes for a week or two, and at the end of this time, significant whitening occurs. 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 porcelain veneers may be more appropriate.
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.
