It can feel frustrating to see your smile gradually lose its brightness. It can be particularly frustrating to have problems with teeth stains even after using a teeth whitening treatment picked up from your local store or pharmacy. What you should know is that if stubborn teeth stains are a problem for you, it may be time to speak to your dentist about the benefits of a professional whitening procedure. Whitening treatments provided at our Moreno Valley, CA dentist’s office can deliver results that store bought treatments will have a tough time matching. This is because your dentist can provide bleaching agents that have more potent effects and deliver more significant changes. If your discoloration is caused by something other than stains, or if you wish to deal with more than just the color of your smile, we can talk to you about other cosmetic dental treatment options.

Is Your Discoloration Caused By Teeth Stains, Or Something Else?

People who have problems with the color of their teeth are often dealing with accumulated stains. These stains can come from many different sources, making this a problem that can be hard to avoid completely. Tobacco users can be particularly vulnerable to teeth stains (among other dental concerns), but discoloration can also affect those who tend to enjoy an assortment of dark or color-rich foods and drinks. With changes to your diet and habits, you can make yourself less vulnerable to discoloration. However, this adjustment can still leave you with discoloration that you are eager to address.

Arranging A Professional Whitening Treatment

A professional whitening treatment can do more for you than a whitening kit picked up at the local grocery store. At our practice, patients have access to whitening agents that are stronger, and more effective at removing deeper stains. You have the option of either arranging a whitening procedure in our office, and having results after one appointment, or taking home a kit to take care of your smile on your own time. Both of these choices lead to notable improvements, which can make you eager to show off your brighter teeth!

Addressing Intrinsic Discoloration With Porcelain Veneers

While teeth whitening treatments are often the first procedure people look into when they have dental discoloration, it may not be the right approach for you. Individuals who are bothered by discoloration may actually have issues with intrinsic discoloration. Intrinsic discoloration occurs whenever a problem within the tooth affects its color, leading to concerns about your appearance. Porcelain veneers are often recommended to address this issue. With veneers, minimal preparatory work can be required – the shells created to restore your teeth will be bonded in place to provide lasting improvements.
