Say Hi to Summer with Teeth Whitening in Kernersville

There’s no shortage of photo ops during the summer months, from pool parties to memorable trips to the beach and time spent with family and friends on those long North Carolina summer evenings. As we get ready to say hello to the month of May, we’d like to ask — is your smile ready? You may benefit from rejuvenating teeth whitening in Kernersville from Dr. Veronica S. Walker! We offer at-home whitening to help you brighten your smile at the pace you are most comfortable with.

How Does At-Home Teeth Whitening Work?

If a professional teeth whitening treatment is what you need, we will create a set of trays specifically for your smile. It just takes one visit to our office to receive your treatment. Once you have your kit, you will fill the trays with the high-powered bleaching gel and wear them for about half an hour each evening for the best results.

While you can decide on the particulars of how you complete your treatment, some tips for the most effective at-home whitening include…

• Your teeth will be more vulnerable to stains right after whitening, so apply the treatments at night, when you’re finished eating and drinking for the day.
• Try to limit exposure to any highly pigmented foods and beverages during whitening.
• Use a small amount of bleach to avoid injuring your gum tissue. Your dentist or hygienist can show you how much to use.
• Discontinue use of the whitening gel after two weeks, or before if you’re happy with your results.
• Brush with an anti-sensitivity toothpaste during treatment to lessen discomfort that may occur with teeth whitening treatments.

Why Choose Professional Whitening?

From whitestrips to whitening toothpastes and one-size-fits-all bleaching trays, there are a number of whitening options available at the drugstore. But the truth is that nothing brightens your smile as effectively as a professional whitening treatment. When you partner with your dentist to whiten your smile, you’re getting a professional-strength solution that can brighten teeth by up to 10 shades. Dr. Walker can also make special considerations for sensitivity to ensure that you get your whitest smile safely. When it comes to your one-and-only smile, it’s worth it to take the time to partner with the professional who knows what’s best.
