Teeth whitening is the most requested cosmetic dental procedure globally.
The first step in the take-home teeth whitening process is an initial consultation with Dr. Nick Russo at Russo Dental. During this appointment, Dr. Russo will examine your teeth and gums to ensure they are in good health and suitable for whitening treatment. He will discuss your smile goals and expectations, answer any questions you may have, and determine the best whitening approach for you.
Once you're cleared for the treatment, the next step is creating your custom whitening trays. Dr. Russo will take an impression of your teeth, which is then used to craft trays that fit perfectly over your teeth. These custom trays are key to the whitening process, as they ensure the whitening gel is evenly applied to each tooth for optimal results.
After your custom trays are ready, you'll be provided with a professional-grade whitening gel. Dr. Russo will instruct you on how to apply the gel to the trays and how long to wear them each day. Unlike over-the-counter products, the gel used in take-home teeth whitening treatments is more potent, providing more noticeable results.
The whitening effect from take-home teeth whitening treatments can last between 6 months & 3 years.
