Putting Off Tooth Whitening? Here Are Five Reasons To Do It Now.

Time for some tooth whitening.

Plan to whiten your teeth today.

We’ve all seen those dazzling white Hollywood smiles, but did you know that those bright smiles often need a little tooth whitening boost from a dentist?

Over the years, your teeth tend to lose their bright white luster. This is often due to the foods and drinks you consume. Some foods and drinks contain tannins, like red wine and coffee, that can stain your teeth a dark yellow or light brown color. Other foods that are rich and bright in color, like beets or tomato sauces, can also cause your teeth to look less white over time.

Even for those of us who are brushing our teeth properly multiple times a day, the tannins in these foods can cause our teeth to stain over time, and the only thing that can make your teeth whiter and brighter is a professional tooth whitening treatment at your local dentist.

If you feel your teeth aren’t as bright and dazzling as they used to be, you should consider a professional teeth whitening treatment at Valley Dental Clinic in Anchorage, Alaska. We’ve put together 5 reasons you shouldn’t put off whitening your teeth any longer.

1. Whiten your teeth for a special occasion.

Do you have a special event coming up where you will be smiling a lot and you’re worried about how bright your teeth are? This might be the perfect time for you to get your teeth whitened. If you will be attending or participating in a wedding where you will be smiling most of the night, a tooth whitening treatment could be just the thing to make you want to smile more. 

If you have a job interview on the horizon, or will be attending a class reunion, whitening your teeth could just give you the edge you need.

2. Tooth whitening can be motivation for a healthier lifestyle.

If you are focusing on your well-being this year, a tooth whitening session could be the catalyst you need to keep up with a healthier lifestyle. Getting a tooth whitening treatment can be part of your healthy makeover. If you are looking for more motivation to hit the gym or eat healthier, getting a professional dental whitening can give you that extra push you need.

A whitening treatment could help you feel more confident in yourself, which could push you to keep healthy in other aspects of your life. Having whiter teeth will make you want to brush and floss to maintain the brighter shade, which is only a bonus for your oral health and wellbeing.

3. Tooth whitening is a quick process.

With our busy lifestyles, it’s easy to wonder how you could possibly find the time to commit to a treatment like tooth whitening. The good news is that tooth whitening is a non-invasive procedure that is done in the dentist’s office and only takes about as long as a regular lunch break.

At Valley Dental Clinic, we use Opalescence Boost—a powerful tooth whitening treatment that uses a chemically activated gel—which is placed into custom aligners that you wear for about an hour in our office. You will see brighter, whiter teeth after just one visit!

4. Boost your self-esteem with whiter teeth.

If you are bothered by the shade of your teeth after years of normal wear and staining from the foods you eat and drink, boost your self-esteem with a tooth whitening treatment at Valley Dental Clinic. Once your teeth are whiter, you might be more apt to smile and flaunt your new pearly whites and show them off, which can be a huge self-esteem booster.

5. Tooth whitening is more affordable than you think.

If cost is a reason you have put off whitening your teeth, you might be surprised at how affordable teeth whitening can be. While there are over-the-counter teeth whitening treatments available, those whitening agents aren’t as strong as the ones used in a dental office, and the results won’t be as desirable. If you are interested in a tooth whitening treatment at our Anchorage office, give us a call to learn how affordable tooth whitening treatment can be.
