There are numerous over-the-counter teeth whitening solutions on the market. However, not everyone experiences the same results with these kits, and they are often left asking their dentist how they can improve their smile. With professional teeth whitening, you get a bright and sparkling new smile with a treatment that’s designed specifically for you. 

What Are the Benefits of Professional Whitening?

1. Consistency

While some people have great success with over-the-counter kits, others end up with unevenness in their whitening or don’t get any whitening at all. When you have this done professionally, your dentist will evenly apply a whitening solution to each tooth, which is then activated by a curing lamp. This ensures that you get an even, bright smile.

2. Safe 

The condition of your teeth might vary greatly from someone else’s. A cosmetic dentist can control the solution applied and choose the right strength for the condition of your teeth. This can prevent pain and sensitivity that some might experience when they use a nonprofessional method. 

3. Easy to Maintain

Maintaining professional whitening is also easier. The strength of the whitening gel your dentist uses means that you’ll enjoy a white smile for months or years before needing a touch-up. You can also request customized trays and a solution to take home with you to make sure that you can maintain the shade of your teeth over time. Avoid acidic foods, wine, and coffee for at least 24 hours after your treatment, but afterward, your smile should require little to no maintenance.
