What is Teeth Whitening?

Teeth whitening is a popular cosmetic dental treatment that lightens the color of your teeth, enhancing the appearance of your smile. Teeth can become discolored over time due to aging, tobacco use, or consumption of certain foods and beverages like coffee, tea, and red wine. This treatment utilizes whitening agents, like hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide, to break down protein in the teeth and restore the natural whiteness of teeth. It can be done in a dental clinic for immediate results or at home with custom trays for a more gradual improvement. Under the supervision of a dental professional, teeth whitening is safe, effective, and greatly improves the aesthetics of your smile.
