TOOTH WHITENING

Beautiful white teeth

What is Tooth Whitening?
Tooth whitening is a bleaching process to create a whiter, brighter appearance of the tooth enamel. No natural tooth structure is lost, and no anesthetic is required.

What Happens During Tooth Whitening?
A custom-fitted appliance containing tooth whitening solution is worn during this procedure. You must wear this appliance for a period of days or weeks as we prescribe for your situation. In many cases, night time application alone is sufficient to achieve the results you desire. When undergoing the passive tooth-whitening program, you must return to the office periodically. These appointments ensure that the whitening system is working effectively and that your teeth and gums remain healthy.

Will I Need Touchups?
To stay whiter and brighter, you may, periodically, need to wear your whitening trays with the whitening solution for a few days to a week. Please call us to discuss your needs, and we?ll be happy to advise you.

Are There Side Effects?
Some patients may observe their teeth have a chalky appearance, due to a slight dehydration caused by the tooth whitening solution. Occasionally, patients experience mild sensitivity to cold food and beverages for a day or two following the procedure.

Patients throughout the Chicago metro area can enjoy the finest care with exceptional results at our convenient Lombard location. Dr. Blacher and his talented team look forward to helping you achieve a beautiful, healthy smile to last a lifetime!

What is the proper way to brush my teeth ?

Place the bristles at a 45 degree angle to the gum line, and slide the tips of the brush under the gums. Gently jiggle the bristles or move it in small circles over the tooth and gums. Brush the outside, the inside, and the chewing surfaces of your teeth. For chewing surfaces, use a light back and forth motion. For the front teeth, brush the inside surfaces of the upper and lower jaws: Tilt your brush vertically and make several strokes up and down with the front part of the brush over the teeth and gum tissues.

Brushing your tongue will help freshen your breath. Debris and bacteria can collect on your tongue and the roof of your moth, causing bad breath. Since your toothbrush will only clean one or two teeth at a time, change its position to clean each tooth properly.

Brush at least once every day, preferably at bedtime. Adding a brush time after breakfast increases your chances of thorough daily plaque removal. Take your time: a thorough brushing should take at least 3 minutes..

Is tooth whitening for me ?

First, the strength and condition of your teeth need to be determined through an exam and x-rays. Then, we need to establish the exact cause of your tooth discoloration. Factors that can contribute to discoloration:

  • Tetracycline (antibiotic) staining
  • Excessive fluoride
  • Trauma (injury) to the teeth
  • Pulp (nerve) degeneration
  • Restorative materials (silver, gold)
  • Genetic and acquired illnesses
  • Aging
  • Use of staining substances, such as coffee, tea or tobacco
