Teeth stains can take the confidence out of your smile, but that doesn’t mean you have to live with them. The team at Inspiration Dental in Riverview, FL, offers a variety of professional teeth whitening options to help you treat stains and discoloration for a brighter, happier smile. These treatments are safer and more effective than over-the-counter options, so you can get the results you want without the risk of damaging your teeth.
For patients who need results fast, we utilize the Zoom whitening system that can lighten your smile up to 8 shades or more with a single treatment. In-office whitening is perfect for patients who want to look their best for an upcoming special event or to help their smiles shine in photos.
The Zoom system uses prescription strengthen whitening gel that our hygienist can apply directly to your teeth. We’ll start by cleaning your teeth to remove any tartar or bacteria buildup, then apply protective barriers to your gums to protect them from the gel. Then we will use a brush to spread the gel evenly over your teeth and a special light to activate the peroxide for faster results. After about 15 minutes, we will evaluate your progress and apply more gel as needed. Zoom sessions typically last about 2 hours, but the results can last for months with proper care.
For patients who want to treat their staining at home when it’s more convenient or want to help maintain their zoom session results, we offer home whitening treatments to help. We can either craft you a custom-fitted treatment tray and provide you with the Zoom whitening gel, or offer Opalescence Go-Trays. This set of 10 prefabricated upper and lower trays are intended for single uses, which makes them perfect for traveling. You’ll simply wear the trays daily for about an hour during your initial treatment and as needed for maintenance.
Some intrinsic staining won’t respond to the bleaching solution. Our team will evaluate your teeth during your initial consultation and determine if professional whitening is right for you. We can also provide patients who won’t get the results they want from whitening several other options to improve the look of their teeth, such as dental bonding, crowns, and veneers.
