Teeth whitening is the most requested dental procedure by patients under 20.
The first step in the teeth whitening process is an initial consultation with Dr. Konz. During this visit, he will evaluate your child's oral health, discuss their dental history, and determine if teeth whitening is a suitable treatment. This step is crucial as it allows Dr. Konz to tailor the treatment plan according to your child's specific needs and ensure their safety and comfort throughout the process.
Before the whitening procedure, a thorough teeth cleaning is performed. This step involves removing any plaque or tartar build-up on the teeth surface, which not only promotes better oral health but also allows the whitening agent to work more effectively. The teeth cleaning process is gentle and painless, ensuring a comfortable experience for your child.
The final step is the actual teeth whitening procedure. Dr. Konz applies a high-quality, safe bleaching agent to your child's teeth. This agent works to break down stains and discoloration, revealing a brighter, whiter smile. The procedure is quick, typically taking about an hour, and results can be seen immediately.
Teeth whitening can significantly boost your child's self-esteem. A bright, white smile can make them feel more confident and positive, impacting their social interactions and overall wellbeing.
Children who have undergone teeth whitening are often more motivated to maintain their bright smiles. This encourages better oral hygiene habits, such as regular brushing and flossing, leading to improved oral health.
Preventing dental issues is always more cost-effective than treating them. Pediatric fluoride treatments are an affordable way to protect your child's oral health and potentially avoid costly dental procedures in the future.
The color of a tooth is determined by its dentin, not its enamel.
