Take Home Kits vs. In-Office Teeth Whitening Procedures
While most in-home kits use the same ingredients as in-office procedures, the concentration is much lower. Which tooth-whitening procedure is right for you?
/Dental PR News/ - DALLAS, TX, March 02, 2008 - Today's advances in the dental field allow more people to enjoy whiter, more dazzling smiles through advanced tooth-whitening procedures. While most in-home kits use the same ingredients as in-office procedures, the concentration is much lower. However, both types of tooth whitening are superior to over-the-counter whitening treatments which have a still lower concentration of whitening material as well as poorly-fitting whitening trays.
You'll have to assess your teeth whitening goals and personal resources of time, money, etc to decide which treatment option is best for you.
Take Home Kits
Best For:
• People who want to lighten one or two shades
Advantages:
• Less expensive
• Can be done from the comfort of your home
Disadvantages:
• More labor-intensive
• Require more frequent treatments
• Trays aren't tailored to fit your individual mouth
In-Office Treatment
Best For:
• People who want to lighten more than a few shades, or have significant discolorations
Advantages:
• More expensive
• Whitening done by a trained professional
• Lasts longer
• Uses personalized trays to fit your teeth exactly (the better the tray fits; the better your results because you teeth will be in constant contact with the whitening gel).
Disadvantages:
• More expensive
• Requires additional trip to dentist's office
Of course, for people with severe discoloration of their front teeth, the best way to achieve a bright smile might be either porcelain veneers or dental bonding, which conceal your stained teeth and simultaneously correct gaps or crookedness.
If you're considering tooth whitening or your dental work needs a professional maintenance polish, please contact Dallas, Texas cosmetic dentist Dr. Gary Alhadef.
