Your Teeth Whitening Questions Answered–And Why Professional Care Matters

To Whiten or Not to Whiten

Teeth whitening is a popular cosmetic dental treatment, but not all teeth whitening options are created equal. There are at-home kits that advertise fast whitening, but aren’t always the safest option. The best bet for professional teeth whitening in Greensboro is to get a professional whitening treatment done at Farless Dental Group. Continue reading to learn more about the professional whitening treatments we offer and why choosing our dental office is the safest and most effective choice to whiten your teeth.

Is teeth whitening safe for my enamel?

Over the counter teeth whitening solutions often use harsh bleaching agents that can cause tooth sensitivity or even tooth damage if used incorrectly. That is why it is so important to choose Farless Dental Group to get your teeth whitened. Our team uses professional whitening products, and your treatments are monitored by our team, meaning we are here to make sure the products are used correctly without damage to your enamel and gums. We want to help you get a professionally whitened smile efficiently and help you achieve the brightness you’ve been looking for.

What are my whitening options at Farless Dental Group?

At Farless Dental Group, we offer two different kinds of whitening options—ZOOM! and KöR.

ZOOM! whitening is an in-office system that offers fast and dramatic whitening results in just a single visit to our Greensboro office. The ZOOM! whitening treatment consists of a hydrogen peroxide-based gel that is applied to the teeth and then activated with a specialized light. This treatment is able to penetrate deep into the tooth’s enamel to break up and lift stains from your teeth. You’ll be able to see dramatic results in about an hour, and the results can last up to two years.

With the KöR whitening system, you can whiten your teeth at your convenience at home. The KöR system uses custom fitted trays that fit over your teeth, which hold a whitening solution in them. The trays are worn for about an hour a day for about two weeks. This treatment option lets you whiten your teeth gradually, so there isn’t such a shocking difference. With the KöR whitening system, you’ll see gradual results that will look natural and last up to two years with proper brushing habits.

To start your tooth whitening journey, make an appointment at Farless Dental Group for consultation with our team to discuss which whitening treatment is the best for you and your smile.

How is in-office whitening different from store-bought whitening kits?

The professional tooth whitening treatments provided at Farless Dental Group’s Greensboro office are designed to professionally whiten your teeth quickly, and without damaging your tooth’s enamel. The higher concentrated formulas we use are applied to your teeth safely under supervision to ensure your gums don’t get damaged in the process.

If you are using the at-home kit we offer, the custom aligners are designed to fit tightly against your teeth so the whitening solution doesn’t harm your gums. The results you get with a professional tooth whitening product far exceed what you can get over the counter, and the results will last longer.

How long do whitening results last?

While there are a lot of variables, most professional whitening treatments last between six months and two years. This, of course, depends on your brushing habits, and how often you consume products that can stain your teeth, like coffee, tobacco products, teas, and red wine. However, if you ever need a touch-up, Farless Dental Group provides you with an at-home kit to use at your convenience to freshen up the brightness of your smile.

Why is professional teeth whitening in Greensboro worth it?

A whiter, brighter smile can boost your confidence, so if you feel your smile is dimming, you may be interested in a professional teeth whitening treatment from your local Greensboro dentist. At Farless, we tailor treatment plans to each individual, making sure to use products that maximize your individual smile.
