Teeth whitening is a popular cosmetic solution for patients in the Houston, TX area who are dealing with permanent discoloration of their natural tooth enamel. While there are many choices when it comes to over-the-counter whitening products, many patients find that these leave much to be desired. Whitening products may be difficult to use, result in unwanted sensitivity, and may not address any or all areas of staining. Instead, patients are encouraged to speak to a dental professional at Vivid Dental to discuss the advantages of investing in professional-grade teeth whitening services with the KoR deep bleaching system.
KoR deep bleaching is a two-part whitening process. It starts with an in-office whitening treatment during which the dentist will apply whitening solution and activate it using a special whitening light. This is done after the teeth have been cleaned to ensure removal of all plaque and tartar which may inhibit the product from working its best. The dentist at Vivid Dental then takes impressions of the natural teeth to fabricate a custom-made whitening tray which is to be used with the KoR deep bleaching take-home gel. For several weeks, patients are educated on how to use their take-home trays and whitening product to further improve their smile in the comfort of their own home. Most patients can wear the trays with the prescription-strength gel for approximately one hour every night for optimum results over three weeks. Over the course of time, patients will notice a brilliant new smile emerging and enjoy the improved confidence that comes with dazzling teeth!
Patients must be appropriate candidates for treatment. KoR deep bleaching is not recommended for patients with fillings and other restorations, as these need to be replaced to match the brand new whiter smile most patients achieve.
