Teeth Whitening – Frisco, TX
Achieve a Flashy New Grin
Teeth are exposed a wide range of stain-causing agents over decades of use. Foods and beverages of rich color can lead to unsightly dental discoloration that does not respond to conventional hygiene methods. Thankfully, the team at Frisco Dental Care is trained and equipped to provide professional teeth whitening treatments that can brighten your grin by up to eight shades. Here’s a brief guide to how this process works, but feel free to schedule a consultation at our office if you’d like to know more.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Teeth Whitening?
Many dark and colorful foods like coffee, tea, red wine, juice, candies, berries, and sweet and spicy sauces are rich in pigments, dyes, and tannins that can become embedded in your smile and leave unsightly stains and discoloration. These stains can be extrinsic (located on top of the enamel) or intrinsic (located beneath the enamel), and routine brushing and flossing habits may not be able to lift them. Thankfully, teeth whitening treatments from our Frisco office can noninvasively and painlessly lift stubborn stains and discoloration and brighten your smile by up to eight shades in brief timeframes. These treatments typically require no anesthesia, and they can be an excellent choice for almost any patient with healthy teeth and gums. If you’re not ready for teeth whitening yet, we may be able to help you become an excellent candidate through restorative treatments.

Teeth whitening can be administered in the form of a take-home kit or an in-office procedure, and either method can deliver amazing results.

Tips for Maintaining Your Brighter Smile
After whitening your teeth, you’ll certainly want to do what you can to keep your grin shiny and bright for as long as possible. Immediately after your treatment, it’s best to stick to a diet of white, mild foods to prevent new stains from forming, and dairy products are great sources of the vitamins and minerals your enamel needs to stay in great shape. It’s best to limit your consumption of stain-causing foods and drinks as well as sugary and acidic items. Of course, two of the most important things for keeping your grin white and bright is practicing excellent oral hygiene at home and seeing Dr. Phillips regularly for routine exams and cleanings.
