Who Is a Good Candidate for Teeth Whitening?
Are your teeth and gums healthy, but you feel like your pearly whites aren’t quite living up to their name anymore? If so, there’s a good chance that you’re a candidate for teeth whitening in Haverhill. So, don’t hesitate to schedule an appointment with our team at Bradford Dental Care! The sooner you do, the sooner we can complete a comprehensive oral exam and determine if this is the ideal cosmetic dental treatment for you.
How Does Teeth Whitening Work?
As we mentioned above, we offer both in-office and take-home whitening treatments at our office. During your consultation, we will discuss each of these options in-depth to help you decide how you’d like to proceed. If you’d like to learn more in the meantime, however, then you can read on as well!
Take-Home Teeth Whitening
Since over-the-counter products contain diluted whitening gels and one-size-fits-all applicators, they rarely deliver noticeable results. Fortunately, our take-home treatments use powerful (and safe) brightening gels and custom trays. That’s why many patients notice improvements after just one use!
In-Office Teeth Whitening
Do you want to brighten your smile in a single visit? If so, you should consider an in-office treatment! With ZOOM!, we can potentially lighten your teeth by up to eight shades in a single visit. Plus, you can relax comfortably in the treatment chair because we will take care of the entire process.
Tips for Maintaining Your Brighter Smile
In an effort to prevent noticeable, yellow stains from resurfacing shortly after your teeth whitening treatment, we recommend:
- Avoiding stain-causing foods, like tomato soup
- Using a straw when drinking coffee
- Brushing, flossing, and rinsing with mouthwash consistently
- Not using tobacco products
- Scheduling a dental cleaning every six months
You also shouldn’t hesitate to schedule a touch-up whitening treatment when you start to notice your teeth lose their vibrant appearance.
Understanding the Cost of Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is a great way to enhance the natural beauty of your smile without invasive treatment. However, many people put off their treatment because they have concerns regarding the cost. Since everyone’s treatment is a little bit different, the cost can vary. During your appointment with us, we will go over the exact cost of your treatment so that you don’t encounter any surprises. Until then, here are some things for you to take into account.
Factors That Affect the Cost of Teeth Whitening
The cost of professional teeth whitening varies on several factors. Here are some of the most prominent ones.
- Types of Discoloration: Intrinsic stains are more difficult to lift than intrinsic ones. They may require an alternative treatment to see the results that you want.
- Severity of Damage: If your teeth have dark stains, they may need additional whitening sessions to achieve your goals.
- Other Services: If you have existing dental issues, like gum disease or tooth decay, they will need to be treated and eliminated ahead of time.
Types of Teeth Whitening: What Do They Cost?
There are multiple different types of teeth whitening available. Here’s what you can usually expect in terms of cost.
- In-Office Teeth Whitening: In-office teeth whitening ranges from $400 to $800. In some areas, this can cost over $1000.
- Take-Home Teeth Whitening: Professional take-home teeth whitening treatments usually cost a few hundred dollars.
- Over-the-Counter Teeth Whitening: Teeth whitening trays that you find over the counter are usually $100 or less.
- Over-the-Counter Strips/Gels: This is the cheapest teeth whitening option available. These boxes typically cost between $20 and $40 and usually contain enough product to last a couple of weeks.
Inexpensive Teeth Whitening vs. Professional Teeth Whitening
When you look at the price points above, you may be wondering why someone would choose professional teeth whitening when over-the-counter treatment options are so much more affordable. With cosmetic dentistry, the results that you see are clearly reflected in the cost of the treatments that you get. If you choose cheaper strips and gels, you won’t see significant results. This is especially the case with darker discoloration. Professional teeth whitening provides you with more noticeable results in a fraction of the cost.
Options for Making Teeth Whitening Affordable
Teeth whitening does not receive dental insurance coverage because it is an elective treatment. However, we are happy to accept payments through CareCredit and Cherry. These third-party financing companies can split the cost of your treatment into manageable monthly installments with little-to-no interest. If you have any questions or need help applying, don’t hesitate to contact us.
