Myth-busting: Teeth Whitening

Everyone desires a lovely, healthy-looking smile. Brushing alone isn't always enough to remove coffee stains and other discoloration from our teeth. People use various acceptable and illegitimate methods to achieve that dazzling, white, camera-ready smile. So, how can customers be sure that the teeth-whitening procedure they select is safe and effective?

Firstly separate fact from fiction! Numerous fallacies regarding teeth whitening keep people from receiving the treatment they deserve. Suppose you want to be sure that you have all of the data about teeth whitening. In the meantime, let's have a look at some of the worst teeth-whitening myths:
 
Myth 1: Whitening toothpaste and strips are as good as your dentist's whitening
While "whitening" kinds of toothpaste, chewing gums, and other products include whitening agents, they are far too weak to produce the same results as professional whitening. Discover Dental offers considerably more powerful and long-lasting whitening services and a strategy tailored to your specific needs.
 
Myth 2: Whitening your teeth will make them look fake
Natural teeth aren't entirely white. They're yellowish in hue, and it emanates from within. It cannot be removed by bleaching. Teeth whitening removes stains and discoloration, but it cannot be done until your teeth are the same color as a piece of paper. Photoshop or veneers are used to give celebrities beautiful white teeth.
 
Myth 3: Teeth whitening lasts forever
If only! There is no preventing the aging process, and even after your teeth have been whitened, coffee, wine, and cigarettes can stain them. Professional teeth whitening lasts roughly two years; however, the brilliant whiteness fades after about two to three months.
 
Myth 4: Tooth whitening harms your enamel
Whitening does not destroy or damage enamel. Teeth whitening works by allowing a cleaning chemical, specifically peroxide, to enter the interior structure of your teeth and remove stains. After a while, those pores seal again.
 
Myth 5: Professional whitening gel and at-home whitening gel are the same
The active chemical that whitens your teeth, carbamide or hydrogen peroxide, is present in varying concentrations in all teeth-whitening gels. A professional whitening gel is significantly more potent than an at-home whitening gel, not to mention easier to apply! You'll see your dentist's results right immediately.
