One of the very first things people notice about us is our smile. A bright radiant happy smile portrays health, confidence, and vitality! All of us want to feel comfortable enough (and not self-conscious) to flash a big beautiful grin whenever we want. However, not all of us are fortunate enough to be born with perfect white teeth.

As we age teeth naturally darken or yellow. But there are many causes for tooth discoloration. Genetics always plays a big part in the color of our teeth, but factors such as antibiotics, foods and drinks, smoking, and internal tooth discoloration also can have a big impact on those pearly whites!

There are many options available today on the market for OTC at-home whitening, but an in-office procedure by your dentist is by far the most effective and safest way to go. Professional teeth whitening protects gums and sensitive tissue from potentially highly irritating chemicals. Also, professional whitening is stronger and can get teeth much whiter than their at-home counterparts. And for those with sensitive teeth, you’ll find that laser whitening is the easiest on sensitive teeth, gums and tissues.
