Miami's Fast Way to Whiter Teeth

Why Whitening Strips Don't Often Work?

Have you ever used those off-the-rack whitening strips or gel trays only to discover that they made little to no difference in whitening your teeth? It's not that they don't work, it's that they only work on certain types of teeth stains. Here’s why.

There are actually two types of teeth stains: extrinsic and intrinsic stains. Extrinsic stains are those that occur on the surface of the teeth. These usually aren't a problem since regular brushing and flossing eliminate most of these stains. That leads us to intrinsic stains, or stains that occur on the inside of the tooth. If all your forays into at-home teeth whitening are a bust, you most likely have intrinsic teeth stains. Intrinsic stains are harder (not impossible) to treat, but it’s going to take professional assistance.

Professional Teeth Whitening in Miami

Even if over-the-counter teeth whitening products did not work for you, there's still hope. Professional results require a professional solution. CG Smile offers results-based teeth whitening solutions including Zoom! chair-side teeth whitening and custom whitening trays so you can top-up your smile from the comfort of your home.

Here’s the secret to professional-level whitening. It all comes down to “friendly free radicals.” These are the free radicals that break down stain-causing chromophores that are deeply embedded in the pores of the teeth. The goal of professional whitening is to prolong the free radical action for as long as possible without harming the teeth. That’s the professional difference. When you use a store-bought teeth whitening product, they usually only have peroxide as the active ingredient, which means that free radical action doesn’t extend beyond the surface of the teeth. Zoom!™ teeth whitening solutions from your dentist use a peroxide formula that extends the whitening action deep down into the enamel. And, the more you whiten, the more effective the results become.

Only through your dentist can you take advantage of powerful peroxide teeth-whitening blends that deliver deep whitening action for faster, more noticeable results. For professional teeth whitening in Miami, call CG Smile!

What About Whitening-Related Sensitivity?

When you see teeth whitening products that state they work well for sensitive teeth, they most likely are ineffective at treating deep stains. Deep stains (chromophores) act as insulators. So when the stains are removed there should actually be some heightened sensitivity — that means the product is working! But, we also don’t want you to be uncomfortable.

Zoom!™ whitening products are specially formulated to mitigate the effects of whitening-related tooth sensitivities. This innovative formula works by plugging up the pores of the teeth with biocompatible, teeth-friendly fillers. These fillers help shield the teeth from the common hot and cold sensitivities that follow professional tooth whitening.
