Tooth Whitening

Dentistry @ Carleton Place now offers Philips Zoom in-office teeth whitening. Philips Zoom In-Office Teeth Whitening is safe, effective and fast. In just one hour, your teeth will be dramatically whiter, in some cases, up to several shades brighter.

Zoom In-Office Teeth Whitening uses a laser-activated whitening gel containing Hydrogen Peroxide. When Hydrogen Peroxide is activated, it releases oxygen molecules that enter the enamel and dentin of the tooth, bleaching the tooth while its structural integrity remains unchanged. The laser accelerates the effects of Hydrogen Peroxide for deeper surface penetration.

Tooth whitening is a procedure that can lighten the shade of your teeth and remove staining or discoloration caused by aging, medications, or diet and lifestyle factors such as drinking coffee, tea, wine, or using tobacco products. Tooth whitening will not last forever, so the procedure will have to be repeated on a regular basis to maintain the desired colouration.

For in-home whitening, our dentists will take an impression of your teeth and then make custom mouthpieces (trays) to fit your teeth. The dentist will give you a supply of bleaching gel (usually containing hydrogen peroxide) that is applied to the tray and then you will be instructed to wear the tray for a certain amount of time. Care should be taken to use only the prescribed amount of whitening gel as any excess of the product can contact your gums and cause irritation.

In-home tooth-whitening procedures can cause increased tooth sensitivity in some people. this is a normal side effect and usually subsides a few days after the whitening treatments have been completed. Whitening procedures should be avoided if you are pregnant.
