Subtly Enhance Your Smile with Teeth Whitening in Gilbert

Posted on (not posted yet) by San Tan Oral Surgery

When you want to have a subtle procedure to enhance your smile, consider visiting a dentist in Gilbert for professional teeth whitening. This is a non-invasive procedure that can brighten your smile to reduce your embarrassment from overall discoloration or ugly spots. If you want to have a teeth-whitening procedure, then you should schedule an appointment with our dentist in Gilbert for a complete examination.

In order to have your teeth whitened, you should have healthy teeth and gums. Our dentist will clean your teeth first with tiny instruments that can remove the plaque that contains bacteria. When you have damaged teeth from injuries or decay, you should have repairs completed first to protect the underlying enamel on the teeth. In addition, our dentist doesn’t recommend teeth whitening for patients who have gingivitis or other problems with the soft oral tissues, including mouth sores.

The good news is that after these problems are treated, you are eligible for teeth whitening. Our dentist can fill cavities, order dental crowns or repair chips on the teeth. These problems are easy to fix during one office visit, but for gum disease, you will need multiple treatments with antibiotics, additional cleaning procedures and gum surgery. Our dentist can remove dental bridges or protect other dental restorations during the teeth-whitening process, and there are other safer ways to remove stains from these items.

Teeth Whitening Is a Fast and Easy Process

Teeth whitening will require us to prepare your mouth with small rubber devices that will capture your excess saliva and the chemicals that are used during the process. Our dentist will cover your gums with a gel that will keep the whitening chemicals away from the sensitive tissue. We will protect your clothing with a special garment while you sit in a chair that moves, making it easier for our dentist to access your teeth.

Here at San Tan Oral Surgery, we use the Fotona laser for our teeth whitening treatments. This laser is capable of whitening the teeth among a host of other aesthetic benefits. The Fotona laser can also be used to treat sleep apnea and snoring.

By avoiding certain beverages and foods, you can maintain the whiteness of your teeth longer.

What our patients are saying about us

"Dr. Colson is amazing! She explained everything thoroughly without sounding condescending and gently but directly guides you through the whole procedure. She is excellent and super experienced. I got my wisdom teeth pulled (3 partially impacted and one simply extracted) and aside from asking too many questions under laughing gas before the general anesthesia knocked me out, I got no complications and have had essentially no pain at all." – Ana D.
