Even those patients who maintain the strictest oral hygiene routines notice staining and discoloration over time because the foods and drinks we consume every day are the main contributor to dental staining. While brushing, flossing, and twice a year professional cleanings go a long way to keeping teeth pearly white, patients who are interested in brightening their smiles may wish to consider <a href=\"https:\/\/www.drnaikdental.com\/teeth-whitening.html\">professional teeth whitening<\/a>. Our team offers custom teeth whitening plans to whiten smiles up to ten shades.<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<h3>In-Office Teeth Whitening with Zoom!<\/h3>\n<p>For those patients who want a brilliant smile quickly, Zoom! teeth whitening offers results up to ten shades brighter in about an hour. When patients choose Zoom! whitening, their appointment begins with a brief cleaning to prepare teeth, and photos to compare with the results. Then, soft tissue is protected and the Zoom! whitening gel is applied to teeth. Finally, an activating light is placed over teeth to accelerate the effect. In less than an hour, we remove the light and gel, and reveal patients\u2019 beautiful, brilliant smiles. Results vary, but typically patients\u2019 teeth are between six and ten shades brighter.<\/p>\n<h3>Take-Home Professional Whitening<\/h3>\n<p>Unlike products available over the counter, professional take-home whitening kits include a custom tray that seals professional grade whitening gel onto teeth protecting soft tissue, and keeps saliva out of the mix so the gel remains active longer. In just a few weeks of daily application, patients see results comparable to those possible with Zoom! whitening from the comfort of home. This option is great for patients who prefer to see a gradual whitening over time, those who have sensitive teeth, and as a touch up treatment following in-office whitening.<\/p>\n<h3>Benefits of Cosmetic Dentistry in Flint, MI<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Studies show patients with bright smiles appear up to ten years younger than their chronological age.<\/li>\n<li>Patients who invest the time and money in cosmetic dentistry typically take better care of their teeth which leads to improved oral health.<\/li>\n<li>Those who love their teeth smile more, feel more confident, and are likely to be healthier and happier.<\/li>\n<li>According to a US employment study, people who smile more often and have a healthy, attractive smile are more likely to get a job or get promoted in their current job.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Schedule a Consultation with your Cosmetic Dentist in Flint, MI<\/h3>\n<p>If you\u2019re ready to take your smile from meh to marvelous, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.drnaikdental.com\/contact-us.html\">contact<\/a> Dr. Naik and her Flint, MI team today.
