The team at Wetaskiwin Family Dental in Wetaskiwin offers unmatched professional teeth whitening in Wetaskiwin, one of the many cosmetic dentistry services we provide.
The effectiveness of any teeth whitening depends partly on the types of stains and the patient’s teeth.
Extrinsic tooth stains are the easiest to remove. These surface stains have not yet penetrated through the enamel into the dentin. Extrinsic stains are caused by dark-coloured foods and beverages like blueberries, carrots, coffee, red wine, and cola. And nicotine is no better for your smile than it is for your lungs.
Unfortunately, even if you avoid these common teeth stainers, your teeth will become discoloured over time. Like gray hair, wrinkles, and memory lapses, a dull smile is an inevitable part of ageing for some people.
Intrinsic tooth stains ensue from the inside out. Tooth injury or tetracycline are the usual culprits. Intrinsic stains are more difficult to remove entirely, but it is possible to lighten them with professional tooth whitening available at your cosmetic dental office.
If your teeth are discoloured, whether from coffee, tetracycline, or excessive fluoride, call dentist in Wetaskiwin to schedule a appointment for teeth whitening. We also offer general dentistry. Make an appointment today.
