Previously cover in why at home teeth whiten is a no-no, it’s also great to know why professional teeth whitening is better.

Why Professional Teeth Whitening is Better

There’s a lot more factors involved when using teeth whitening products than people realise. When opting for the professional way of whitening teeth:

• you’ll save money and time by avoiding products that don’t work.
• At-home treatments need constant attention. With a dentist however, it’s a one time thing till your next appointment in 6 months to 3 years time.
• Substances stuck on your teeth linger (even with the best of brushing) will be enhanced when using certain at-home treatment. A professional will clean you teeth properely ready for the treatment.
• There’s no doubt that you’ll achieve desired results.
• Results last longer.
• Treatments vairies, so a one-suits-all treatment (store-bought at-home treatments) is bound to fail. But with a dentist, it’s personalised to suit you.
• Sticking with the idea of personalisation, using a mouthguard that’s not especially made for your teeth is damaging, and will cause more harm than good. A dentist will make a mouthguard that fits just right.
• Convenient.
• Faster results.
• Your dentist can help you asap if there’s a problem (not that you would with Smiles Centre, but it’s that extra reassurance, peace-of-mind, that you can’t put a price on).
• Once treatment is done, you won’t have to come back for some time. Depending on the results you’re after, and your lifestyle; look at how long will teeth whitening last(?) to gain better insight into how often you’ll need teeth whitening appointments.

So overall, you can clearly see that there are a heck of a lot more pros than you may of thought of initially.

It may feel easier to just buy a kit online, but you may face challenged that’ll lead you to consulting a dentist anyway; between tooth sensitivity, no result/bad results, and/or experiencing damage, a lot can go wrong.

At-home kits are only great when assisted by a professional…
