Providing Teeth Whitening for Natomas, Sacramento, California

Your smile is important. It’s one of the first things you notice when you meet someone. A whiter, brighter smile is beautiful – it can help you feel better about yourself and make a memorable impression. Serenity Dental offers teeth whitening options in his Natomas, Sacramento, California office to bring a sparkle to your smile.

Teeth will naturally darken with age. Lifestyles also can stain and darken your teeth. Many things we do on a regular basis can contribute to stained teeth, such as drinking coffee, tea, cola and red wine or smoking. Also, during routine chewing, dentin remains intact while millions of micro-cracks occur in the enamel. It is these cracks, as well as the spaces between the crystalline enamel rods, that gradually fill up with stains and debris. As a result, the teeth eventually develop a dull, lackluster appearance.

Teeth whitening can get your smile looking its best. It is important to choose the right tooth whitening method. Non-professional procedures and clinically unproven teeth whitening tips can often lead to unsatisfactory results. Some teeth whitening procedures just remove the stains and debris, leaving the enamel cracks open and exposed. Some of the cracks are quickly re-mineralized by saliva, while others are filled up again with organic debris.

You should look for a teeth whitening procedure that is:

• Fast and convenient
• Long-lasting
• Low sensitivity
• Proven to be safe and effective
• Performed by a Dental Professional

Serenity Dental of Natomas, Sacramento, California offers in-office Zoom Whitening as well as other tooth whitening options. Significant color change in a short period of time is the major benefit of in-office Zoom whitening. This protocol involves the carefully controlled use of a relatively high-concentration peroxide gel, applied to the teeth by Serenity Dental’s trained technician after the gums have been protected with a paint-on rubber dam. Generally, the peroxide remains on the teeth for 15 minute intervals that add up to an hour (at most).

Comparing ZOOM Whitening With Other Tooth Whitening Options

ZOOM Whitening Chairside: Zoom whitening takes about 45 minutes resulting in about 8 shades whiter teeth. Zoom whitening provides immediate results that are long lasting; less fadeback; is safe and comfortable and is performed by a dental professional. You will leave our Natomas, Sacramento, California office with a bright, white smile you can be proud to show off.

At Home Tooth Whitening Trays: Using at-home tooth whitening trays typically takes 7-14 days and results in about 6 shades whiter teeth. Since it is a gradual process, you will not see immediate results. Of course, this teeth whitening process is self-applied.

Teeth Whitening Strips or Paint-on Gel: Whitening your teeth with paint-on gels or teeth whitening strips typically takes 7-30 days and results in 3-4 shades whiter teeth. Results for both of the tooth whitening methods are inconsistent and are not immediate.

Tooth Whitening Toothpaste: Brushing consistently with tooth whitening toothpaste takes 1 month or more to achieve 1-2 shades lighter teeth. Results fade if you stop using the tooth whitening toothpaste and only works on superficial stains.

If you wish to have a bright and beautiful smile that lasts, we invite you to contact Serenity Dental of Natomas, Sacramento, CA to schedule a teeth whitening appointment.
