This patient guide explains teeth whitening options, what to expect, and questions to discuss at your appointment. For an overview of treatment at our office, explore our teeth whitening services.
Teeth whitening can brighten natural teeth, but the best approach starts with understanding the cause of discoloration. Dental Art Clinic can assess your teeth, existing restorations, and sensitivity before discussing a whitening plan.
Dental Art Clinic welcomes Mount Prospect patients at our office at 1512 N. Elmhurst Road, Mount Prospect, IL 60056.
Peroxide-based whitening products break down stains in natural teeth. Different types of discoloration respond differently, so a particular shade cannot be promised. Whitening does not change the color of crowns, veneers, fillings, or bonding. Your dentist can explain how existing dental work may affect the appearance of your smile after whitening.
An examination helps identify cavities, gum problems, or exposed roots that may need attention first. Ask which whitening options are appropriate for your teeth and which are available through the office. Follow the specific instructions for the recommended product. Increasing the amount or wear time on your own can irritate your mouth.
Temporary tooth sensitivity or gum irritation can occur. Tell your dentist if you already have sensitive teeth or if discomfort develops during treatment. Brushing, cleaning between teeth, and reducing exposure to staining habits can help maintain your smile. Results and the need for future touch-ups vary from person to person.
Mount Prospect patients can bring a clear description of the brightness they want rather than relying on a filtered photo. Ask which changes are realistic for your natural teeth. The consultation should also cover visible fillings and sensitivity so the plan reflects the whole smile.
