Dentist Mukilteo WA Teeth Whitening Tip: Four Teeth Whitening Don’ts

August 8, 2015 By HarbourPLaceDental

093Four Teeth Whitening Don’ts – Tips from Dr. Onishi, Dentist Mukilteo WA

http://www.harbour Place Dental.com

Before rushing out and buying a teeth whitening product, there are four major no-no’s you need to be aware of.

1. Don’t Use on Artificial Surfaces
One of the things most people don’t know about teeth whitening products is that they don’t work on artificial tooth surfaces. So if you have had veneers, implants, crown or fillings, then be aware that these parts of your dental structure will not respond to teeth whitening products. What will happen instead is that they will remain the same color while your natural teeth will be whitened, resulting in a dental patchwork of different shades. To avoid this fashion faux-pas, it is best to first consult a dentist on the best way to whiten your teeth.

2. Don’t use on Badly Discolored Teeth
Teeth whitening products are not the magic solution to treating badly discolored teeth. If you have very bad dark teeth stains, such as those caused by excessive cigarette smoking or fluoride water, the normal home kits will give you below average results and will just be a waste of time and money. For seriously discolored teeth, it is best to consult your dentist who can use professional strength teeth whiteners that will give you better results and more value for your money.

3. Don’t use during Pregnancy
If you are expecting a baby, then you should definitely keep off all teeth whitening products as the smallest ingestion of teeth whitening ingredients can harm the development of the fetus. The best thing to do is to put of any teeth whitening plan until after your delivery.

4. Don’t use if you have Inflamed Gums
If you suffer from inflamed gums or other dental problems, you should stay clear of teeth whitening products until you get your dental problem sorted out. Whitening products will only aggravate your condition and cause painful tooth sensitivity that will make eating or drinking very difficult.

It is quite natural to consider teeth whitening treatment for maintaining that perfect confident smile. But before you take a plunge and go for those appealing teeth whitening kits you must make sure that you have optimal oral health. If you are in or around Mukilteo WA area do not hesitate to contact Dr. Onishi, Dentist Mukilteo WA and the professionals at Harbour Place Dental. They go above and beyond when it comes to helping their patients maintain optimal oral health and a perfect smile.  Give them a call  at (425) 493-8111, or visit them or contact  them through their website or by email: harbourpldental@gmail.com
