Tooth whitening may be all you need to give
you the smile that you deserve. Tooth whitening really is the most popular
cosmetic dental procedure in the world, however, sometimes people go overboard,
especially with over the counter whitening products.
According to your Corona Dentist those gels,
pastes, strips, and mouth rinses that you purchase from your local pharmacy are
not as strong as the prescription whitening products from your dentist. Most
whitening agents contain hydrogen peroxide, but the over the counter whiteners
don’t have as a high a percentage.
Dental Care of Corona offers both in office
tooth whitening and custom made tooth-whitening systems that you take home. Both
will give you the confidence you need to flash your pearly whites again.
However, tooth whitening doesn’t work for everyone.
If you have interior or intrinsic stains, old
restorations, chips, cracks or other issues, your Corona Dentist may recommend other
cosmetic dentistry procedures such as cosmetic dental bonding or porcelain veneers.
Cosmetic Dental Bonding
This quick and easy treatment can repair
chips and cracks, make your teeth longer or shorter, or fill in the small gap
between your teeth. Done in a single office visit, dental bonding is not as
strong as porcelain veneers, but may be a good option, especially if you do not
want any permanent changes.
Porcelain Veneers
Cosmetic porcelain veneers are custom made to
fit your teeth. They are permanent because a small portion of your natural
tooth needs to be removed to make way for the porcelain veneer. During the
manufacture of your permanent veneers, your dentist will fit you with temporary
veneers if your natural teeth are unsightly.
If you would like more information about
tooth whitening, cosmetic dental bonding or porcelain veneers, schedule an
appointment with Dental Care of Corona, it really will make a difference to
your self-esteem.
