Teeth whitening is the most-requested cosmetic dentistry procedure in the United States. At The Dental Design Center in White Plains, we’re happy to say we offer our patients several great options.
First, there are two types of stains that we see often: extrinsic and intrinsic.
- Extrinsic tooth stains are the easiest to remove. These surface stains have not yet penetrated through the enamel into the dentin. Extrinsic stains are caused by dark-colored foods and liquids like blueberries, carrots, coffee, red wine, and cola. Smoking really does a number on teeth, too.
- Intrinsic tooth stains arise from the inside out. Tooth injury or tetracycline are the usual culprits. Intrinsic stains are more difficult to remove totally, but it is possible to lighten them.
We offer you in-office and at-home treatments. Each delivers spectacular results.
At The Dental Design Center in White Plains, teeth whitening is just one of our cosmetic dentistry procedures. Call our office to find out what we can do for your smile!
