Questions

Q1. True or false – Professional teeth whitening involves clinical strength bleach.

Q2. True or false – Dental bonding utilizes the same material (composite resin) which is used for white dental fillings.

Q3. True or false – Porcelain dental veneers are designed to encase your entire set of teeth, front and back.

Answers

A1. TRUE – Teeth Whitening is an effective way to address deep tooth stains with clinical strength bleaching agents.  In a short period of time, your smile will appear up to ten shades whiter. We can offer you fast bleaching in the office, which only takes about an hour. Or you may prefer to order a take-home whitening kit which you can implement on your own time for great results.

A2. TRUE – Dental bonding is made from a tooth-colored composite resin. Bonding is a cost effective way to achieve a uniform smile when your cosmetic issues are very minor. Bonding fills in chips, cracks, and gaps to conceals imperfections such as jagged teeth or isolated stains.

A3. FALSE – For patients in need of a complete smile makeover, porcelain veneers produce drastic results. Veneers are custom made restorations that are placed over the front of teeth. They resemble natural teeth and address multiple smile imperfections.
