Dental bleaching is an important part of cosmetic dentistry. Here at Dr. Kezian’s office we use advanced bleaching system to make your teeth whiter. Our treatment is safe, effective and affordable. However, you should not have any unrealistic expectations. Even the latest dental bleaching system has its limitations. Your teeth cannot be made as white as a paper, but it can be made up to three shades whiter. Either your teeth will become as white as the white of your eyes or there will be no change at all following the treatment.

For How Long Will The Teeth Whitening Last?

In Los Angeles, Dr. Arthur A. Kezian DDS offers high quality dental bleaching. However, even a high quality cosmetic treatment is not guaranteed to last a lifetime. There are various factors that determine how long your teeth will continue to sparkle after the treatment. With the right oral care, teeth whitening treatment performed in our office can last for about 10 years. To retain the natural color of your teeth, quit smoking, limit consumption of acidic foods and foods that stain your teeth. Nevertheless, the bleaching procedure will protect your teeth from darkening for a long time.

Things to Remember

Tooth restoration performed before the dental bleaching will not become whiter following the tooth whitening treatment. Therefore, do not expect to brighten the crowns, bridges, bonding and veneers by dental bleaching.

Dental bleaching is not recommended for people allergic to the whitening agent used for dental bleaching. Your dentist may not recommended dental bleaching if you have sensitive teeth.

If you have cavities, gum infections or any other dental or oral problem, it should be first treated before undergoing teeth whitening.
