Top teeth whitening choices

The majority of people have some form of tooth discoloration. Because there are many degrees when it comes to the color of one's teeth, it is important for everyone who wants whiter teeth to know which tooth color is going to be the right shade for their teeth.

While most people have it in their mind that they want their teeth to be bright white, this may not be their natural tooth color, making for an unnatural look. Thus, it is always best to find a dental professional who specializes in whitening their patient's teeth, as they are able to bring out the patient's natural tooth-color for a more natural-looking smile.

A dental professional is the best choice for those who are looking for a natural bright smile.

How long do teeth whitening results last?

That depends on the whitening treatment chosen. If someone chooses to use a dental procedure to professionally whiten their teeth they can expect the results to last anywhere between two and three years. People, who take proper care of their teeth and avoid the common causes of tooth discoloration, like smoking and drinking coffee, are the ones who experience the longest-lasting results.

Other over the counter tooth whitening options:

  • Toothpaste. Whitens teeth up to one shade. Results last about one month.
  • Strips. Whitens teeth up to two shades. Results can last up to two months.
  • OTC Trays. Whitens teeth up to three shades. Results last about one month.
