At Chawla Orthodontics, we do more than just give our patients braces. Many people do not realize, but an orthodontist does more than put braces on people. We offer a list of services that benefit your smile and confidence, and we wanted to tell you about one of our more popular services. Our teeth whitening treatment is very popular with our patients after they just recently complete their teeth straightening journey.
There are two major reasons why patients decide to get Westmon teeth whitening treatment and Villa Park teeth whitening treatment after they get their braces removed. The first reason is that they simply want to have a confident and beaming white smile. Having your teeth whitened at the end of your teeth straightening journey feels like the cherry on top of a perfect smile. Not only will you have your braces off, but you can walk around with a confident and beautiful white smile.
The second reason people get their teeth whitened after braces is that there may have been discoloring of your teeth during the process. Braces themselves do not cause stains to occur on the teeth, if anyone told you that, it is a myth. Discoloring and stains happen because plaque sits on the tooth for too long and is not removed properly or quickly enough. When plaque sits on teeth for too long, it slowly starts to strip away tooth enamel. When braces are removed, you would see that the tooth where the brackets once were placed has white around it. Seeking Westmont teeth whitening treatment or Villa Park teeth whitening treatment can help with this discoloration. You will have a confident smile in no time.
Teeth whitening at Chawla Orthodontics is different than teeth whitening that you can buy over the counter at big stores like Walmart or Target. At the stores, you can find toothpaste that helps with whitening and teeth whitening strips. When you get Westmont teeth whitening treatment or Villa Park teeth whitening treatment, you will need to make an appointment with us.
During this appointment, we will apply a gel to your gums or a rubber shield that helps to protect them. We will then proceed by applying bleach to your teeth. Bleach can hurt and harm the gums if you are not careful, so please do not bleach your own teeth at home. If you do instead decide to whiten at home, our orthodontist can create a custom-made teeth whitening tray for you.
Depending on the method used, teeth whitening can vary in price. Each office will have its own methods with pricing. Typically, teeth whitening treatment in both Westmont and Villa Park can cost anywhere between $100 to $500. The cost can depend on how sensitive your teeth and gums are. If you are prone to be sensitive, then you will require an alternative form of teeth whitening that will not hurt you or cause discomfort. If you are likely to have sensitive teeth, please let the dentist or orthodontist know ahead of time. You can achieve your dream smile without having to go through any unnecessary discomfort.
If you have any other further questions about Westmont teeth whitening treatment or Villa Park teeth whitening treatment that we did not cover, please contact us. Our team will be happy to assist you. If you would like to make a consultation appointment with us, then you can give us a call or do so on our Chawla Orthodontist website.
