Lasers are fast becoming part of the Dentists bag of tools that he uses on a daily basis. Dentists now use lasers to bleach, restore and remove cavities from teeth. It is important to have a consultation visit with the Cosmetic Dentist before deciding on whether this type of teeth whitening treatment is right for you. Laser teeth whitening is more expensive than other teeth whitening systems and at your consultation visit your Dentist will be able to judge the effectiveness of laser teeth whitening for your specific case. |
| Laser teeth whitening is an in-office bleaching system using a translucent bleach whitening gel and a laser. The laser is used to activate crystals in the whitening gel absorbing energy from the laser and penetrating tooth enamel lightening the shade of the teeth affected. The effectiveness of laser teeth whitening can vary from case to case. In the majority of cases the results are excellent and they are instant, however even laser teeth whitening may not correct all types of tooth discoloration. Also if you have bonding or tooth-colored fillings in the front of your teeth laser teeth whitening will not affect the color of these teeth. You will want to know this, as you do not want a nice new bright smile on all but your two top front teeth. In this type of situation the Dentist may point you in the direction of porcelain veneers or dental bonding. The procedure can take as little as an hour from start to finish. Yes, that's right, if your Dentist approves your laser teeth whitening procedure, it is possible to walk out of your Dentist's office with a bright new smile the same day you walked in. How's that for getting what you want in a hurry? Another teeth whitening system that uses similar technology is the Zoom Teeth Whitening System. Of course like everything else there is a cost associated with speed. The approximate cost of obtaining a bright smile in an hour with laser teeth whitening is $1,000. And remember your results won't last forever. Your daily eating and drinking habits will eventually take their toll and tooth discoloration will occur over time. However with proper care you can expect your newly whitened teeth to last for years. Laser teeth whitening may be right for you if the effectiveness and speed of results is your primary consideration. If you are serious about checking into laser teeth whitening why not make an appointment with your Dentist so that she can let you know if your teeth are good candidates for this procedure. |
