The Evolution of Teeth Whitening

While teeth whitening is widely popular today, it's interesting to note that the desire for a bright, white smile dates back thousands of years. Ancient civilizations used various methods to whiten their teeth, although these practices were far from safe or effective by today's standards. For example, ancient Romans used urine as a whitening agent, while Egyptians created a whitening paste from ground pumice stone and wine vinegar.

Modern teeth whitening has its roots in the late 20th century, with the first commercial home whitening product launching in the 1980s. Since then, the industry has evolved significantly, with advancements in technology and a deeper understanding of dental health contributing to safer, more effective treatments like the Opalescence system.

Why Whiten Your Teeth?

A bright, healthy smile can be a great asset. The natural aging process, combined with factors like diet, smoking, and some medications, can make your teeth stained or discolored. Teeth whitening effectively combats these effects, delivering a rejuvenating transformation that can truly enhance your overall appearance.

Besides aesthetic reasons, teeth whitening has been linked to several psychological benefits. A whiter smile often translates to increased self-esteem and can significantly impact your professional and social interactions.

The Opalescence Teeth Whitening System

When it comes to teeth whitening, safety and efficacy are paramount. That's why we chose the Opalescence system. With a long-standing history of over 30 years, Opalescence has become a trusted name in the field of cosmetic dentistry.

Opalescence offers a unique blend of active ingredients that ensures effective whitening while maintaining the health of your teeth and gums. Its primary ingredient, carbamide peroxide, has been studied extensively and proven safe and effective for whitening teeth when used correctly.

Customized Whitening Trays for the Opalescence System

One of the unique features of the Opalescence teeth whitening system is the use of customized trays. Unlike one-size-fits-all trays, these are designed to fit perfectly over your teeth, ensuring an even application of the whitening gel and maximum contact with every tooth surface.

Creating these custom trays begins with an initial appointment at our clinic. Our experienced dentists will take impressions of your teeth which will serve as the blueprint for your personalized trays. These impressions are sent to a dental laboratory, where your trays are crafted to fit the unique contours of your teeth and gums.

Once your custom trays are ready, we will call you in for a fitting. During this visit, our team will ensure that your trays fit perfectly and comfortably, and you'll receive instructions on applying the Opalescence whitening gel. This personalized approach ensures that the whitening gel evenly reaches every part of your teeth, leading to consistently brilliant results.

The treatment duration with Opalescence can vary, but most patients find that a series of short daily sessions over a period of 10-14 days produces optimal results. These sessions generally last 30 minutes to an hour, making it easy to fit into even the busiest schedules.

Opalescence On-the-Go

Opalescence offers an on-the-go system for those of you with a more active lifestyle. This handy variant allows you to whiten your teeth whenever and wherever it suits you best. Easy to use and convenient, it's the perfect way to maintain a dazzling smile in the midst of a busy schedule.

What Can You Expect?

With Opalescence, you can expect reliable and impressive results. Depending on the extent of staining or discoloration, the system can lighten your teeth several shades. The Opalescence system is designed to remove various types of stains, including those from coffee, tea, wine, and tobacco, as well as discoloration caused by certain medications or aging.

The duration of results can vary based on personal habits, but with proper maintenance and regular touch-ups, you can enjoy your brighter, whiter smile for many years.
