When to choose professional-grade products
While over-the-counter whitening products do work, the results are far less noticeable than professional-strength whitening products and services. This is because in order to sell these products, they need to be safe to use at home without the guidance of a medical professional. Essentially, this means that they cannot have a high concentration of bleaching agents that can cause patients who use them improperly to experience sensitivity or burning of the gum tissues. Professional-grade whitening products, however, are monitored for use by a medical professional and can be given at a higher concentration of active ingredients, especially for in-office power bleaching which is administered and monitored from start to finish by a dental professional. With our take-home whitening kits, patients are educated on how to use them properly to achieve results while reducing the risk of problems.
Why choose professional-grade products?
While many of the professional whitening options are initially more expensive than the over-the-counter choices, this doesn’t mean they are a waste of money. In fact, the cost of these treatments is extremely affordable when compared to how many over-the-counter products would be needed to achieve the same results. Our in-office power bleaching provides same-day whitening of up to eight shades whiter—which is untouchable compared to the products available at the local drugstores.
