Dr. Rifkin and Dr. Raanan understand having brighter, whiter teeth has become one of the most significant aesthetic concerns of many dental patients. Teeth whitening (sometimes called “bleaching”) is a simple and non-invasive dental treatment that can change the color of your natural tooth enamel. For individuals whose teeth are stained, or that have unattractive color, tooth whitening offers a relatively simple way to enhance and beautify your smile.

Is Professional Teeth Whitening Right for Me?

Here are some of the reasons you might want to consider teeth whitening:

• Normal wear of enamel (the outer layer of the tooth).
• Fluorosis (discoloration caused by excessive fluoridation during a tooth’s development)
• Tooth enamel stained by medications (such as tetracycline)
• Teeth with yellow or brown stains

Is Teeth Whitening Permanent?

The effects of teeth whitening are not permanent. It is likely that a touch-up will be needed every few years. Such procedures are needed more often for patients who smoke, and those who drink wine, tea or coffee.

Because teeth whitening is only effective on natural tooth enamel, it is important to evaluate replacement of any old fillings, crowns, or other dental modifications. Replacement of such restorations will need to be done after bleaching, so they can be properly color matched to the newly bleached teeth.
