The takeaway?
Teeth whitening is among the most sought after cosmetic dentistry procedures and will stay that way for years to come.
It is true that a set of bright white teeth can have a dramatic impact on professional and personal life. It is also true that over the counter teeth whitening kits are not as effective as in clinic procedures. While almost 83% of patients reported visible improvements in teeth through in-office procedures, a relatively smaller share agreed to have seen a difference with DIY kits.
Why In-Clinic Whitening?
Apart from the effectiveness of professional treatments, there are plenty of other reasons to go for in-clinic teeth whitening.
Being In The Hands Of Dental Experts
Perhaps the most important reason to go for in-clinic teeth whitening is that you get to have a professional do the procedure for you. With the rapid popularity of teeth whitening procedures, there are now many cheap DIY kits available, some of them might do more harm than good.
Your dental health is not something you should be risking just to save a few hundred dollars. Instead, consider visiting a cosmetic dentist for professional teeth whitening solutions. They can also recommend other procedures to help you achieve the looks you desire.
It’s Much Safer
Low cost DIY teeth whitening kits appeal to so many people due to the convenience and affordability. One of the most common problems with these kits is that your teeth would rarely fit right. This leads to bleaching agent leaking onto your gums and tongue causing problems that aren’t just worth the trouble.
A professional dentist working on your teeth means precise application of the bleaching agent and lesser chances of problems.
