Bleaching

For whitening of dark, dull or stained teeth, bleaching may be the simplest solution. Bleaching is performed by taking an impression of your teeth and making a model of them. From this model, a clear soft bleaching tray is made. Think of the tray as a "Jell-O mold" of your teeth. The tray is filled with bleaching gel and placed into the mouth directly over the teeth. This bleach filled tray may be worn during the day or while you sleep. Results can be seen daily. To obtain maximum results, most patients must wear the bleaching tray for about two weeks.
