Many products currently on the market promise whiter, brighter teeth. The American Dental Association (ADA) says that if you are a candidate for a whitening procedure, your dentist may suggest a procedure that can be done in a dental office. Other options include at-home products, which your dentist may give you or you can purchase over the counter. But dental professionals and the ADA caution you about the incorrect use of such over-the-counter products. They are sometimes too abrasive and can damage the teeth with extended use.
The ADA describes “whitening” as any process that will make teeth appear whiter, using one of two ways. A product can bleach the tooth, changing the natural tooth color. Most teeth whitening products use carbamide peroxide or hydrogen peroxide.

Dr. Shakhet can recommend the best whitening option for you. Options may include:
In-office bleaching. Dr. Shakhet will use a whitening product on your teeth. It usually needs one visit.
At-home bleaching products provided by Royal Dental. This option involves using a custom-made tray from your dentist that can be worn comfortably while you are awake or sleeping. The tray is so thin that you should even be able to talk and work while wearing it.
Over-the-counter bleaching. Recently, more over-the-counter products are available that offer simple whitening solutions. However, they may not provide the dramatic improvement that a professional treatment option offers. Talk with Dr. Shakhet about which types may be best for you.
