Baton Rouge Teeth Whitening
Dr. Perry can whiten your teeth quickly and affordably. A dazzling white smile can take years off your age, and creates the impression of overall health and vitality.
We offer several different teeth whitening procedures, to suit both your budget and your temperament. If you are watching your extra expenditures and are good about creating and maintaining health routines, an at-home whitening system would probably work perfectly well for you, as long as you are not in a hurry. We can provide you with custom designed trays and careful instructions on exactly how to use them, along with the whitening gel. For many people, this is a great way to get a glowing smile.
Deciding between an at-home system and an in-office procedure requires some honest self-assessment. If you have a particularly hectic schedule, or find sticking to a fixed regime difficult, an in-office teeth whitening system is likely the better choice for you. The best at-home system in the world is not effective if it is not diligently and consistently applied.
If you chose to go with an in-office teeth whitening session, the following information lets you know what you can generally expect from the appointment.
Teeth Whitening Procedure
| First, the hygienist places retractors to protect your lips and create room to work. |
|
|
| Soft material is tucked under the retractors, and protective gel is applied to the gums and any other exposed soft tissue. |
|
|
| After the whitening gel is applied to the teeth, the laser light is put in place and turned on. The light allows the whitening gel to penetrate the surface of the teeth more rapidly. |
|
|
| The end result is a dazzling white smile in a fraction of the time needed to obtain the same results as an at-home system. |
|
|
In the first day or two, your teeth may seem almost too white. The level of whiteness will fade slightly a couple of days after your appointment.
