In an effort to whiten your smile, take years off of your appearance, and heighten your sense of self-confidence, how many over-the-counter teeth whitening systems have you tried? If you’re ready to achieve a new level of white, a shade that you could never achieve with a store-bought bleaching product, it’s time to consult with Iowa family and cosmetic dentist Dr. Jeffrey Allen.
It’s no surprise that over-the-counter whitening products don’t hold a candle to professionally prescribed teeth whitening treatments. To help his patients achieve the bright white smiles that have become so coveted over the past decade or so, Dr. Allen offers a premier teeth whitening option: Opalescence.
After researching various types of professional teeth whitening procedures, Dr. Allen chose the option he deemed most effective, safe, and long lasting. Like other at-home teeth whitening systems, Opalescence whitening consists of custom-made dental trays and professional-strength bleaching gel for dramatic results.
Once Dr. Allen has examined your teeth and decided that you can benefit from Opalescence teeth whitening, he will take impressions of your teeth that will be used to fabricate your custom whitening trays. Once your trays return from the dental laboratory, Dr. Allen will invite you back to our Pella dentist office to explain to you how to use your new teeth whitening system.
The process is simple: Just load a thin layer of the bleaching gel into your trays, place them in your mouth, and wear for one to two hours per night. You may begin to see results right away, but your teeth will be dramatically whiter if you complete the total two-week whitening regiment.
To maintain your bright, white smile, simply use your whitening trays and bleaching gel for occasional touch-ups. If you run out of bleaching gel, call our office to request more.
If your teeth are yellow or dull from years of drinking coffee and red wine, smoking, or the natural aging process, teeth whitening can breathe new life into your smile, and it all starts with your initial consultation appointment.
Dr. Jeffrey Allen provides comfortable dental care to patients of all ages. Call (641) 628-1121 today to schedule a checkup and cleaning, cosmetic consultation, or second-opinion visit. We are located on the west side of the historic town square in Pella, IA. Please see the map for directions.
