Know Your Loftin Dental Team OAInvisalignKKeedd
Teeth WhiteningEventually, you might notice that your smile is no longer as white and bright as you’d like. When this happens, you may be tempted to try a DIY teeth whitening solution at home. At Loftin Dental, we encourage our patients to seek the services of a professional. Many people believe that a brighter smile makes people more attractive, and this belief prompts them to look for whitening and brightening services to restore dull, yellow or stained teeth.
Friendly and professional!
Reasons to Work With a Teeth Whitening Dentist
There are several good reasons to work with a teeth whitening dentist rather than attempting something on your own:
- Stronger methods can be used without fear that the enamel or gums will be damaged
- Overall oral health is protected
- Professional advice concerning appropriate dental health is available
- Patients can avoid the painful results of too much bleaching or irritated gums
- Results often last longer than those achieved through DIY treatments
We work with families and individuals throughout the Walnut Creek, Concord and Clayton communities to offer safe and effective alternatives to those processes you might try at home. Patients may have tried a variety of products and processes in the past, but working with a professional is the best way to be sure that the enamel of the tooth is not damaged. We also have patients that come from Benicia, Antioch and even Reno! Call us with any questions!
Patients throughout Walnut Creek and Clayton may have tried a variety of products and processes in the past, but working with a professional is the best way to be sure that the enamel of the tooth is not damaged. We invite you to give us a call when you want to improve your smile. Dr. Loftin and our team at Loftin Dental are ready to work with you to help you feel comfortable with your oral health care.
If this happens, you most likely used too much whitening gel in your trays and it crept up to your gums. Next time, use a little less. When you put your tray on and you see excess squirt out of the trays, wipe it off. The white gums are not permanent and will go away over the next few days. You may feel a burning sensation in the gums as well.
