The first thing that people tend to notice about you is your smile. If you have discolored teeth it can make you very self-conscious. Smiling brings instant warmth to your face and it’s a shame to hide a smile because of stained teeth.

Tooth discoloration can come from a number of things such as tea, coffee, red wine, tobacco products, or even certain medications. When you find yourself hiding your smile, it is time to consider professional teeth whitening, such as custom teeth whitening kits or laser teeth whitening.

Results will vary depending on which procedure you have. Once you have reached your desired tooth color, it is recommended that you touch up your smile periodically. While the easiest way to keep your smile looking great is to stop drinking coffee, red wine or other stain causing foods, we wouldn’t expect you to give up some of life’s most enjoyable things! Most likely you will need a touch up after about six months to one year, but this will depend on your lifestyle and how white you want your teeth to stay.
