Dental Whitening

[00:00:02.800] Our office provides three different types of teeth whitening solutions. [00:00:06.257] We give people take-home trays that are prefabricated [00:00:10.714] and they can apply themselves. [00:00:12.090] We also have another system where we take [00:00:14.471] digital scan or a mold of the teeth and we make custom trays. [00:00:17.920] It gets quite good results. [00:00:20.450] Then we also have a system that's in-office [00:00:23.643] where we apply a special light to accelerate the whitening process. [00:00:28.714] Normally, the sessions are one hour sessions. [00:00:31.530] Average, it can be one session or two sessions, [00:00:34.136] depending on the patient's conditions and the initial color. [00:00:37.480] The effects of teeth whitening vary from patient to patient. [00:00:40.250] The expectations of final result [00:00:41.844] really depend upon discussing with the patient [00:00:44.001] what their current color is [00:00:46.191] and what the limitations are for the number of colors [00:00:48.930] that can be increased in value. [00:00:51.680] We normally use the shade guides to give people an idea of where they are [00:00:54.978] and where they're probably can expect to progress to.
