subject: Sensitive Teeth Can Be Brightened With Laser Tooth Whitening [print this page] Yellow teeth can be a blow to your self esteem. If you have sensitive teeth, seeing all the varieties of home whitening systems can feel like a joke since they cannot be used by you. Under the supervision of a dentist and in one visit however you can partake in laser tooth whitening to get the smile you crave.
The biggest pro in the corner of laser whitening is that it is done in one visit at a dentist's office. With a sure professional hand, your teeth will be cleaned of all plaque and then coated in peroxide gel which will work with the laser for maximum effect.
The actual laser is nothing but a specific light that activates the gel and over the course of an hour your teeth can be lightened up to ten shades.
Any dental procedure is more expensive than what you can purchase and bring home; however, it is the only solution for those with sensitive teeth. Sensitivity makes any at home treatment almost unbearable. Having only one treatment is worth the cost and it is important to note that as with all technologies these lasers are becoming more commonplace which brings down the price.
Some dentists offer discounts to bring patients into their practice, so it would be smart to research and find out if you can get a deal. Costs also fluctuate in certain locations, with some being cheaper than others so if you can travel a bit, you can find the deal for your budget.
There is no law that says you must have white teeth, but if your teeth are stained it can affect your self esteem. Don't let tooth sensitivity stop you from getting the smile of your dreams!
