Welcome to the Kenneth Hovden DDS dental blog, Daly City! I am Dr. Kenneth Hovden. Today’s post focuses on teeth whitening.
Unfortunately, our teeth lose their luster as we grow older, but I see staining on young patients, as well.
San Francisco area residents of all ages want whiter teeth.
To protect from staining, it is critical to brush after meals to remove substances that can stain. After consuming acidic foods or drinks, however, it is better to rinse your mouth with water to dilute the acid. This will protect your enamel.
Tooth whitening products like kits, strips, whitening mouthwashes, and toothpaste can lighten stains slightly, but for a truly stunning smile, Kenneth Hovden DDS is your brilliant solution!
If you have existing dental work such as porcelain crowns, dental bonding, or porcelain veneers, the whitening process can be trickier, but not impossible. Teeth whitening will not lighten the stains on your restorations and your whitened natural teeth will make your dental work look even duller in comparison. At Kenneth Hovden DDS, we can upgrade your dull restorations including veneers, dental crowns, or bondings.
In-office teeth whitening takes about an hour and bleaches teeth to a whiter-than-ever brilliance. Professional take-home whitening kits are also available at Kenneth Hovden DDS and can produce outstanding results over time.
