What Causes Tooth Discoloration?

Tooth staining and discoloration can occur over time for many reasons. Eating certain foods, smoking, or even taking certain prescription drugs can lead to staining of the enamel. Teeth can become yellow, brownish, or dull gray as enamel deteriorates and collects microscopic staining agents. Some patients are also genetically predisposed to issues that affect the shade of their teeth. The type and severity of the staining will determine the effectiveness of different treatment options.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Teeth Whitening?

To put it simply, anyone who is unhappy with the current shade of their smile is a potential candidate for teeth whitening! All you need to do is come in for an appointment and allow Dr. Robison to inspect your smile; he will want to ensure that you’re in decent oral health before getting started. He’ll also want to discuss your smile goals with you and help you decide on which method of whitening will work best for your needs.

How Professional Teeth Whitening Works

Professional teeth whitening differs from store-bought whitening products in the sense that Dr. Robison is creating a custom treatment plan specifically for your teeth. The process is simple; specially formulated whitening agents are applied to the surfaces of your teeth to target staining in the enamel, regardless of its source.

He’ll use professional-grade whitening agents that are formulated to safely whiten teeth with lasting results. Not to mention, store-bought results might make your teeth appear unnaturally white!
