Teeth Whitening

Keeping our teeth their whitest is a lot harder than it sounds. With all the coffee, wine, smoking, and other foods that have the ability to stain our teeth on a daily basis, even proper maintenance sometimes leaves them a little lackluster. Teeth whitening is an excellent way to restore the natural color of your teeth or even make them whiter than your natural color if you would like.

The Diode Dental Laser is a device at the cutting edge of technology, designed for a wide variety of procedures, including whitening. Diode Laser Teeth Whitening is achieved with a proprietary photo-activated whitening gel that is activated by the selective absorption characteristics of a specific true-laser wavelength of light.

This is one of the most advanced, widely-accepted and effective tooth whitening methods in current use.  It has transformed the appearance of thousands of patients. Even for those whose teeth are deeply stained, yellowed or gray in color, Diode Laser Teeth Whitening offers outstanding results. Best of all, the Diode Laser Whitening procedure is completed in just four (4) 30-second sessions, performed in one short visit.

Since teeth whitening only works on natural tooth enamel, it is important to evaluate the status of any old fillings, crowns, or other esthetic restorations prior to treatment. Replacement of any inadequate restorations will be done after whitening, so they will match the newly whitened teeth. Diode Laser Whitening Compared to Traditional Non-Laser Whitening Most dental offices and all spas and salons that offer “laser teeth whitening” do not, in fact, use an actual diode laser in the procedure. The term “laser” has been loosely used to refer to bleaching systems that use a light as an activator.  These lights are actually non-laser plasma lights. There is a significant difference in both the effectiveness and safety of these plasma lights, versus true diode laser activation.
