When you are effectively brushing and flossing your teeth each day, you remove the harmful oral bacteria capable of creating cavities on teeth, and causing gingivitis. While your routine also helps you clear away particles that create teeth stains, you can still notice a change in the color of your smile over time. It can be hard to avoid teeth stains, as so many popular products leave behind chromogens or tannins that dull the brightness of a person’s smile. Fortunately, your Kansas City, MO dentist can send you home with a professional teeth whitening kit to combat these stains, and improve the way you look!
Many Popular Products Can Leave Stains On Your Enamel
Is coffee what you rely on to fight fatigue at the start of your day? Do you enjoy unwinding with a glass of red wine at the end of your evening? So many popular foods and drinks are dark or rich in color, and those products can leave behind particles that steadily accumulate on our enamel. Brushing your teeth can remove surface stains, while leaving deeper-set particles behind. Those stains below the surface of your teeth can even persist after you use a store bought whitening product! You can be relieved to know that a professional whitening kit is capable of addressing these stains, and making more significant changes to the way you look.

The whitening kits we provide patients are personalized in order to make your daily treatments easier. Your kit will include custom-made whitening trays that you use to evenly apply the gels supplied to you. On a daily basis, you will wear the tray, administering your prescription-strength whitening agents directly to your enamel. Over the course of ten to fourteen days, these agents will help remove stubborn stains, so that at the end of your procedure you are dazzled by the sight of your bright smile.
While people tend to be ecstatic over their smile improvements from their whitening kits, there are other cosmetic dental procedures available to you. You can find that these services can help with the color of your teeth while providing additional benefits. For example, porcelain veneers can help you with dental discoloration, while also hiding chips, cracks, and problems with the spacing or size of teeth.
What Can I Do To Keep My Teeth White After My Treatment?
While brushing and flossing can fail to completely stop teeth stains, good preventive dental care can limit the buildup of stains, particularly when you combine care at home with routine dental cleanings and exams. Limiting or avoiding products you feel have a bigger impact on the color of your teeth can also be recommended. You can also improve your resistance to discoloration by limiting how many acidic products you consume, as these can weaken your enamel and make it easier for particles to gather.
