Teeth Whitening Woodland Hills

Teeth Whitening in woodland hills can help improve your confidence. Confident people smile more. The data suggests that the more you smile, the more confident you become. But what if you don’t want to smile because you’re embarrassed by discolored teeth? If you have discolored teeth, you should ask your dentist in Woodland Hills about what Teeth Whitening services they offer. Teeth can become discolored for many reasons. The most common reasons are food and drinks and tobacco use. Coffee, tea, wines, and colas top the list of beverages that stain teeth. The food culprits are starches such as potatoes and pasta. We’re not going to stop eating and drinking, so there must be a different way to fix the problem. But these aren’t the only causes for teeth staining.

Teeth Whitening Products are Not "All the Same"

Many over-the-counter (OTC) products are available that claim to whiten your teeth. They include toothpaste, mouth rinses, unwieldy strips, and generic, ill-fitting trays. These products range in price from a low $20 to hundreds, and your results may vary depending on the cause and degree of your discoloration. Talk to the professionals at Diamond Dental Spa. We offer a couple of options to fit your lifestyle and your budget.

In-Office Teeth Whitening in Woodland Hills, CA

At our location in Woodland Hills, we offer the best in-class teeth whitening technology. The treatment takes about an hour and you will see noticeable results immediately after treatment. On occasion, we may recommend a combination of in-office and at-home whitening to achieve the best results.

Diamond Dental Spa can offer solutions if you are not satisfied with your teeth. We use top-quality products with predictable results.

Whiten Your Teeth at Home

Diamond Dental Spa offers a custom tray system that you can use at home. The trays are molded to fit snugly over your teeth. When you apply the whitening gel, the custom trays allow the gel to spread evenly across the surface of your teeth. The at-home whitening system we recommend is a high-quality formulation. The professional-strength gel results in a more uniform whitening action than you will achieve using OTC products.

The at-home whitening system will fit neatly into your busy lifestyle with products you can trust from Diamond Dental Spa. This system does require self-discipline and proper use to be effective. The initial treatment may require daily application for two to three weeks, depending on your desired outcome. After the initial whitening, you may use the tray for periodic touch-ups with a refillable gel available at our office.

Beware of knock-off products — ask about our at-home teeth-whitening system.

Sensitivity After Treatment

Some people report sensitivity following a whitening treatment. Your comfort is a primary concern for us, and we have specific strategies to reduce your sensitivity. We will customize treatment methods and products to keep your teeth whitening experience comfortable and safe.

Using professional-grade tooth whitening systems provides a more predictable and satisfactory result. Although the initial cost might seem high, it is comparable to the dozens of OTC kits you would spend money on over a period of time. The results are quicker and last longer when compared to OTC product results.

Stained Teeth are Fairly Normal

If you are internally chastising yourself for having stained teeth — stop. Although some discoloration is caused by what we do or don’t do about oral health, some discoloration is caused by factors we have no control over, including:

Diseases such as cancer and kidney failure can cause dental problems. Aside from superficial discoloration, major dental issues can result from chemotherapy, radiation, and dialysis. Some diseases during pregnancy can affect the enamel in an unborn fetus that discolors the teeth.
Medications and everyday products can cause teeth yellowing in children. Tetracycline and doxycycline affect enamel development in children under eight years of age. Antihistamines such as Benadryl® and frequently used antipsychotic and antihypertensive can cause discoloration. Even mouth rinses containing cetylpyridinium chloride and chlorhexidine may increase discoloration.
Genetics can affect the appearance of teeth.
Environmental factors such as too much fluoride can cause white staining on teeth. We can get too much fluoride from our water sources or from using too much whitening toothpaste, mouth rinses, and similar over-the-counter products.
Normal aging causes teeth to appear yellowish and stained. As we age, our teeth wear away as tooth dentin continues growing while the size of pulp decreases. As our teeth become more translucent, more dentin is visible, giving teeth a darker appearance.
Trauma can also cause tooth discoloration. In children under eight years old, trauma can disrupt enamel formation. Getting hit in the mouth can disrupt blood flow to a tooth, causing nerve damage. This is why mouthguards are an essential piece of equipment for young athletes.

We Can Control Some Staining Causes

We are in control of our oral health. With that in mind, we do have some control over the things that contribute to staining and tooth discoloration. Proper dental hygiene is your best defense. Use fluoride toothpaste, brush at least twice daily, and floss daily. Don’t skip dental check-ups for routine cleanings.

Eating a healthy, well-balanced diet will also reduce staining. Avoid foods and drinks that contribute to staining, such as tea, coffee, wine, and dark soda. Foods with acids, such as citrus fruits and tomato-based products, can deteriorate tooth enamel and increase staining. You can discuss other recommended food choices with the knowledgeable staff at Diamond Dental Spa.
