Some people’s teeth are whiter than others, but I think it’s safe to say that most of us Los Altos residents want our teeth to be pearly white! If you are one of those people, then Peninsula Center of Cosmetic Dentistry can help you achieve that beautiful smile you deserve. Today we want to share some tips on teeth whitening and what we can do for you!
Don’t Forget to Brush
The first tip seems like a no-brainer, but many men and women still fail to recognize this practice. We are talking about daily tooth brushing. Brushing your teeth with a soft toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste is one of the best ways to keep your teeth clean and prevent cavities. Often our teeth become discolored or stained because of what we consume (drinks, food, etc.) but when we brush our teeth, it curtails the damage.
After brushing your teeth, another tip is to use a fluoride rinse to finish the cleaning job. Fluoride helps get into the cracks where bacteria can be hiding away. When the bacteria is killed, it prohibits it from spreading and discoloring your teeth. When you are shopping for a fluoride rinse, check the labels. Some ordinary mouthwashes don’t contain fluoride.
Sometimes the discoloration is too extreme to be reversed by home remedies. That’s why we at Peninsula Center of Cosmetic Dentistry offer other powerful services to illuminate your smile. We provide in-office teeth whitening and take-home teeth bleaching kits. Each of these techniques provides an effective solution to teeth whitening. The Relaxing at Peninsula Center of Cosmetic Dentistry will work with you to find the best solution to enhance your smile.
