Stains, stains, stains
Over the years, dental stains accumulate, particularly if you are an avid coffee drinker or smoker. Additionally, dark foods, such as soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, and blackberries, discolor teeth quickly, says the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (AACD).
How can these things create stains if your tooth enamel is so hard? Surprisingly, tooth enamel is porous, composed of networks of calcified fibers which absorb anything you put in your mouth. Add poor dental hygiene and age, and stains happen.
However, they don't have to be permanent, with the help of Poulsbo teeth whitening. Improved brushing and flossing at home, regular cleanings, and check-ups with your dentist, and drinking plenty of water every day help keep teeth bright.
Also, for additional help, we offer teeth whitening for patients right here in Poulsbo!
In-office whitening
This is a painless and incredibly beneficial procedure. It involves a dental cleaning and careful application of a powerful hydrogen peroxide gel. Your dentist carefully covers your teeth in this solution, allowing it to sit for close to an hour. Afterward, it is removed to reveal your brand new smile. Professional teeth whitening can whiten your smile by up to 8 shades!
