Teeth Whitening Procedures - In Office and At Home Explained by Ft Worth Dentist

You may be happy with the alignment and spacing of your teeth but years of coffee drinking, smoking or eating dark, juicy foods have left stains. Tooth whitening may be all that stands between you and a dazzling smile. Your cosmetic dentist will suggest one of several tooth-whitening techniques, depending on factors like your desired results, the time you can devote to the process and the cost of the procedure. In Office Teeth Whitening - Zoom! Advanced Power Zoom! whitening is a revolutionary new procedure that will give you brighter, whiter teeth in a single office visit. Zoom! whitening involves the application of a proprietary gel that, when exposed to a specialized light source, breaks down the stains on your teeth, leaving you with a beautiful smile. Most Zoom! whitening treatments take no more than an hour or so. In most dental offices you will be comforted with a warm blanket, relaxing eye mask, soothing music, and aromatherapy candle. You can also watch a movie if you so desire. At the end of whitening procedure, you will also be pampered by special formulated vitamin E enriched lip balm and a warm face towel to make your whitening experience a truly special one.

At Home You may choose to have your cosmetic dentist customize a home whitening treatment for you. Your dentist will mold a small tray for your mouth and prescribe a whitening gel that is placed into the tray and pressed into position around your teeth. Youll be instructed to wear the tray for several hours per day, or overnight, for up to four weeks. By the conclusion of your treatment, you will see a brighter, more youthful-looking smile.

For the ultimate teeth whitening experience, some dentists recommend the combination of Zoom Advanced Power whitening and at-home whitening. The Zoom Advanced Power whitening jump-starts the whitening program and the whitening is maintained by following up with the take home treatment. In this fashion, fading is eliminated and you can have sparkling white teeth for a lifetime. Consider plastic surgery to go hand in hand with your cosmetic dentistry procedure.

Tooth colored vs amalgram fillings

Composite resins, or tooth colored fillings are a mixture of microscopic ceramic particles dispersed in a plastic resin that can be bonded to teeth. This material comes in a wide range of shades and can be molded and sculpted to create almost any shape or contour. Composite resins bond to teeth  forming a seal to reduce leakage, which is common with dark, metal fillings. For years, an amalgam of silver and mercury metal was the predominant filling material.  Amalgams are still offered in many offices, but we have chosen to refrain from the use of this metal for numerous reasons.  Amalgam use has been extremely restricted in other civilized countries due to the mercury content.  Amalgam fillings require more tooth removal for adequate retention.  And, amalgam fillings are less estheti  Tooth-colored restorations are superior for esthetics and tooth preservation.
