At Arnett Dental Care, we offer convenient take-home bleaching trays that let you whiten your smile at home, whenever it’s most convenient for your schedule.
The best part is that you can whiten your teeth whenever you like in the future, since we sell take-home whitening gel at our Murray dental office. With a customized take-home whitening kit, your smile will always be camera-ready for your next significant event, such as a family vacation or wedding.
How Does Take-Home Teeth Whitening Work?
When you choose a take-home teeth whitening kit at Arnett Dental Care, we’ll start by taking impressions of your teeth. Our team uses those impressions to create custom plastic whitening trays just for your smile.
Our dentists will determine the appropriate strength of bleaching gel based on your smile goals and tooth sensitivity. We’ll show you how to apply the gel to your whitening trays so you can use them at home.
Most patients reach their desired level of smile brightness after about 10 to 14 days of using the bleaching trays for 30 minutes a day.
What Causes Tooth Discoloration?
It’s natural for our teeth to appear more dull, yellowed, or discolored over time as we age. While we treat these aesthetic concerns, we always prioritize your overall oral health as part of our comprehensive dental services tailored to your needs. Lifestyle and dietary choices also contribute to tooth staining. Here are some of the culprits of tooth discoloration:
- Certain medications, like antibiotics or tetracycline
- Poor oral hygiene
- Tobacco use
- Trauma, like injuries to teeth
- Genetics
Particular foods and beverages contribute to tooth discoloration:
- Coffee and black tea
- Red wine
- Dark berries, like blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries
- Soy sauce
- Curries
- Marinara or tomato sauces
- Dark colas
Drinking water alongside these foods helps minimize tooth discoloration.
