If you could see the surfaces of your teeth under a microscope, you would find that your tooth enamel is rifled with microscopic textures. These areas can actively trap tiny particles from the dark foods and drinks you enjoy. If minor surface stains aren’t removed in short order, they will gradually start to penetrate deep into your teeth.

Once this happens, the safest and most effective way to whiten moderate to deeply stained teeth is to have a dental bleaching treatment administered at our dental office . The professional techniques and whitening agents Dr. Jim Kelly uses can remove stains from deep within the tooth enamel.

Using retail-grade whitening strips is a convenient way to whiten your smile while you go about your day. While you’re wearing them, the casual observer can’t even notice they’re in your mouth. While they’re in your mouth, you should not eat, drink, chew gum or use tobacco products.

Before you purchase any brand of whitening strips, you should look for the American Dental Association’s Seal of Acceptance. This logo that is printed on the packaging signifies that the product and its active ingredients have been researched for safe oral use.
