Teeth Whitening

White teeth make a smile spectacular. Patients wanting to brighten stained teeth have options available at Family Dental Group of Greenville. Before buying any over-the-counter whitening kits, call 660-438-5224 for an appointment to discuss professional whitening.

Whitening kits bought at the store are notorious for their lackluster results. The gels are usually goopy and messy and have to be left on the teeth for long periods of time. Patients have reported weeks of treatment and disappointment due to the ineffectiveness of the whitening gel.

The professional whitening available at Family Dental Group provides up to 10 shades of whitening. Treatments last from 30 to 60 minutes. The number of treatments will depend on the expected results.

Whitening gels contain hydrogen peroxide as the whitening activator. The amount of hydrogen peroxide needed for any meaningful whitening requires professional supervision to prevent damage to the tooth enamel. This amount of hydrogen peroxide is not available over the counter. Damaged tooth enamel can produce a translucent look and cause increased tooth sensitivity.

Let us help you improve your smile and the quality of your first impressions.
