Healthy Smiles: Help, I Don’t Like that My Teeth are Yellow!

by Hiralben Patel, DDS of Healthy Smiles Bay Village

Today we will discuss what to do if you don’t like the color of your teeth. I’m sure you have heard of teeth whitening. We offer in office whitening personalized to your teeth! On average patients can expect to go 4-6 shades lighter after our in office whitening session.

Who can get their teeth whitened?

If you want your teeth whitened, it’s important to make sure your teeth are healthy. We make sure your gums are healthy and teeth don’t have any cavities in them. Once we establish that everything is good to go, we can begin the teeth whitening appointment.

How does it work?

We isolate the gum tissue and place barriers to make sure the gums are protected from the whitening solution. We then place our special whitening solution on your teeth and use a light that helps the solution whiten. We repeat this a few times in timed intervals. After the last interval we apply medication to help with any sensitivity. Sensitivity is normal, but will only last 1-2 weeks.

Complementary: we give all of our patients whitening trays and take home gel. By the end of the appointment, you will see immediate results.

All of our patients tell us how the results have been visible and get numerous compliments.

If you want your teeth whitened, please come in for a consultation!

We have availability until 8 p.m. and on Saturdays. Call us at 440-892-1810 to book your appointment!
