teeth whitening : For A Brighter Smile

It seems like we all want to look good. That might mean getting a tan, losing weight, and perhaps having healthy, white teeth. The reality is, though, that most of us want instant results, rather than having to spend countless hours trying to look the way we want. So when someone comes along and invents something that can give us sparkling white teeth without the hours of work, chances are we will want to know about it. We want lovely white teeth fast, no pain, no hassle, and the sooner the better.

Laser teeth whitening is a great way to have white teeth in the minimum amount of time. You don't have to wait days to see the desired results; they're noticeable almost immediately. To begin with, your dental health professional will clean your teeth in the normal way. This removes any plaque or other debris that could adversely affect the whitening process.

Then, a whitening gel is applied to your teeth, and you are placed in position for the laser treatment. Basically, the purpose of the laser is to accelerate the process by activating the whitening gel. Although many people are very happy with the results after one session, sometimes it will take several sessions with gel and laser if the teeth have a significant amount of staining or discoloration.

Like many convenient solutions, laser teeth whitening doesn't come cheap. You can purchase a home teeth-whitening kit from the local drug or grocery store, and pay only a few dollars. For that outlay you'll probably just get a whitening toothpaste, but you can usually get the more sophisticated gel or molding based whitening kits for under $100. Laser teeth whitening is more likely to cost you between $500 and $1,000, depending on the dentist you visit and any extra services provided.

Still, if you're serious about having a beautiful, white smile, and don't mind the effect on your hip pocket, laser teeth whitening is a quick and simple solution. So the choice is simple - do you want a white smile fast, or do you want to save your money? You're the only one who can make that choice.
