Wishing for a whiter smile but not sure how to get it? New to tooth whitening jargon? At Shwarts Family Dentistry in Richardson, we educate patients on the variety of teeth whitening services, from whitening trays to teeth bleaching to opalescence whitening. We do smile brightening every day.
Toothpaste Can’t Erase All Stains
Almost every toothpaste claims to whiten teeth, but their effectiveness is limited. As we age our teeth gradually turn yellow or gray, despite all the whitening toothpastes we use. Tooth enamel, while one of the toughest substances in the body, is porous. Over time, the food and drinks that come in contact with our teeth bring about staining and discoloration.
Powerful Peroxide
Carbamide peroxide and hydrogen peroxide are the two main smile whitening agents. They can penetrate the outer layer of your teeth to expel the build-up and help restore the initial color.
Call Shwarts Family Dentistry in Richardson to schedule an appointment and we will explain the difference between teeth whitening ingredients and how they influence your smile whitening results.
