Teeth Whitening

At The Smile Gallery

An assortment of teeth-whitening systems is available, including toothpastes and rinses, over-the-counter gels, strips and trays, and whitening agents obtained from a dentist. But whitening isn't for everyone. It's ideal for people who have healthy, unrestored teeth and gums. Individuals with yellow tones to their teeth -- as opposed to gray tones -- respond best. Talk to your dentist to find out if whitening is right for you.

The Whitening Effect

Microscopic intrinsic stains and discolorations are present deep within the teeth, which give them an overall dull or yellowish appearance. Such stains are professionally removed by our whitening experts with the use of a peroxide based agent. The peroxide reacts with such stain producing substances thereby oxidizing and removing them completely. The gums and lips are protected with special barriers to prevent their contact with peroxide.
