Whitening Gels Provide Value and More Natural Results
One of the easiest ways to improve your smile is to lighten the color of
your teeth. There are a number of at-home and professional treatments available to you,
ranging in cost from the $30 retail store kit to the $650 in-office
treatment.
We recommend to our patients a take-home whitening gel – “treswhite” – that
you wear just 30 minutes a day. It’s effective, it’s fast and it’s just
$99.00.
We prefer this product, and other at-home gel treatments, for several
reasons.
-
The at-home whitening gels were the first whitening systems developed and
have a successful track record backed by a body of research.
-
They give you more control over the whitening process. Some in-office
treatments make the teeth unnaturally white.
-
They provide better value for comparable or better results. A recent
comparison of at-home and in-office whitening treatments showed that 84% of
the subjects reported the at-home treatment to be more effective and 16%
said they found no difference. No subjects reported the in-office treatment
to be superior.
It’s important to note that if your teeth are dark to begin with the
whitening process may not be enough to give you the smile you desire. In
this case you may want to consider veneers.
