About Whitening Boost Services
Dental whitening is a popular cosmetic treatment to lighten teeth and remove stains, creating a brighter smile. Over time, teeth may become discolored due to aging, coffee, tea, red wine, tobacco, or certain medications. Whitening treatments work by using safe bleaching agents, like hydrogen peroxide, to penetrate tooth enamel and lift stains.
In-office whitening typically offers the fastest results, with visible improvements after a single session. Patients can also choose at-home whitening kits provided by the dentist for gradual results. Whitening is safe when done under professional guidance, but it may cause temporary sensitivity, which usually subsides. Regular touch-ups can help maintain a bright smile over time. Dental whitening is ideal for anyone seeking a quick, non-invasive boost to their appearance.
