The year is passing with the speed of light. Holiday shopping is on our minds. What better gift to give than a “White” healthy happy smile! This is the gift that keeps giving, not just for the holidays, but all year long. Tooth whitening removes surface stains, gets between the enamel rods and lightens the supporting dentin. This leaves a result that is easily maintainable with minor “touch ups” whenever your teeth aren’t as bright as they were. Teeth whitening is a conservative way to face lift your entire smile.
I keep getting asked about Crest Strips. It is frustrating, as basic math gives the perfect answer. Crest Strips whiten the six front teeth. The strength of the material is 1/32nd that of the professional whitening agents. So, by the time you have purchased 32 times the material at $30 per, you have only whitened the front six teeth and spent as much or more than you would have to get a professional comprehensive result. For a comparable amount you can get a great result, whitening all your teeth, have custom trays that keep the material from burning your gums and controls the material so you do not have to eat it for an unpleasant snack. Those same trays can be used indefinitely for future touch ups. So, do it right. Ask your dentist to make you custom trays for at home whitening.
This is a great holiday gift for anyone who likes to smile!
