Teeth Whitening In Colorado Springs

What Is Teeth Whitening?

Teeth whitening is a popular cosmetic dental procedure that aims to lighten teeth by removing stains and discoloration. Over time, teeth can become discolored due to various factors such as aging, consumption of certain foods and beverages, smoking, and poor oral hygiene. Teeth whitening is a simple, non-invasive dental treatment that can effectively enhance the beauty of your smile. It's an excellent way to boost your confidence and improve your overall appearance.

The Teeth Whitening Treatment Process

Initial Consultation

The first step in the teeth whitening process is an initial consultation at Spruce Dental. During this appointment, our Colorado Springs dentist will examine your teeth and gums to ensure you're a suitable candidate for teeth whitening. He'll also discuss your whitening goals and expectations, and answer any questions you may have about the procedure. It's important to have a clear understanding of the process and realistic expectations about the results.

Cleaning and Preparation

The second step involves a thorough cleaning of your teeth to remove any plaque or tartar buildup. This is crucial as it allows the whitening agent to effectively penetrate your teeth. After cleaning, a protective gel or shield is applied to your gums to protect them from the whitening solution. Then, the whitening solution, typically containing hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide, is applied to your teeth.

Whitening Procedure

In the final step, a special light or laser is used to activate the whitening solution. This accelerates the bleaching process and enhances the results. The solution is left on your teeth for about 15 to 30 minutes, and the process may be repeated several times to achieve the desired level of whiteness.
