When to whiten your teeth?

Knowing when to whiten your teeth can help you achieve and maintain a bright, confident smile. Here are some factors to consider:

  1. Diet and Lifestyle: Certain foods and beverages, such as coffee, tea, red wine, curry, balsamic vinegar, and dark berries, can contribute to teeth staining over time. If you consume these items regularly, you may notice gradual discoloration of your teeth and may benefit from teeth whitening to restore their brightness.

  2. Upcoming Events: Special occasions like weddings, holidays, or important social events may prompt you to seek teeth whitening to enhance your appearance and boost your confidence. Planning ahead allows time for whitening treatments to deliver optimal results before your event.

  3. Aging: As we age, our teeth naturally tend to darken and yellow due to changes in the dentin layer beneath the enamel. Teeth whitening can help counteract the effects of aging and restore a more youthful appearance to your smile.

  4. Medications: Certain medications and antibiotics, such as tetracycline, can cause tooth discoloration as a side effect. If you're taking medications known to stain teeth, consider discussing teeth whitening options with your dentist to address any resulting discoloration.

  5. Tobacco Use: Smoking and other tobacco products are notorious for causing teeth to yellow and stain over time. If you smoke or use tobacco, quitting or reducing your usage combined with teeth whitening can help improve the appearance of your smile.

  6. Calculus Buildup: Tartar, or calculus, can accumulate on the surface of teeth, leading to yellowing and discoloration. Regular dental cleanings can help remove tartar buildup and prevent staining, while teeth whitening treatments can further enhance the brightness of your smile.

By considering these factors and consulting with your dentist, you can determine the most appropriate time to undergo teeth whitening and achieve the dazzling smile you desire.


Appointment details

Whitening Consultation:

Your smile is unique, and at Waiata Shores Dental, we understand that the reasons for whitening are personal. During your consultation, our experienced dentists will conduct a professional assessment to determine if your teeth are suitable for whitening treatment.

Before beginning the whitening treatment, your dentist will meticulously polish the surface of your teeth, using a high-quality polisher to remove any tartar and gently polish the enamel. This preparation ensures optimal results and helps achieve the desired shade of whiteness.

Whitening Treatment:

We offer various options for whitening your teeth, including our in-chair Zoom Whitening treatment. This procedure involves applying a bleaching agent to the surface of your teeth, followed by exposure to a special light that enhances the whitening process. Throughout the treatment, your gums and oral mucosa will be protected with a special gel, and you'll be provided with protective goggles for your comfort.

You can even enjoy your favorite music during the treatment. Once complete, you'll see immediate results, with teeth whitening by up to 5-6 shades. Additionally, we offer at-home whitening treatments customized to your unique smile. We'll take impressions of your teeth and jaws to create custom mouthguards, ensuring effective and comfortable whitening at home.

Maintaining Your Bright Smile:

To keep your smile looking fresh and bright, incorporate these simple steps into your oral care routine:

  • Minimize consumption of staining foods and beverages like curry, berries, coffee, and red wine.

  • Rinse your mouth with water within thirty minutes of eating to help prevent stains.

  • Brush and floss regularly to remove plaque buildup, which attracts stains.

  • Use tooth whitening toothpaste or mouthwash to maintain brightness.

  • Schedule regular scale and polish appointments with our dental hygienists at least once or twice a year to keep your smile looking its best.

At Waiata Shores Dental, we're committed to helping you achieve and maintain a whiter, brighter smile. Schedule your whitening appointment today and discover the confidence that comes with a dazzling smile.
