SACRAMENTO, CA, July 28, 2012 (Press-News.org) Tooth whitening is a wonderful way to achieve the bright, white smile you desire. With tooth whitening, stains caused by food, beverages, aging, and tobacco can all be removed, revealing the pearly white smile you were born to have. And who doesn't want a bright smile?
The safest and most effective way to whiten your teeth is under the supervision of a cosmetic dentist. There are certain factors that can make teeth whitening ineffective or unsafe, but under the supervision of a dentist, these issues can be addressed prior to your procedure to help ensure maximum comfort and satisfaction.
Professional Teeth Whitening
Most cosmetic dentists offer both in-office and take-home teeth whitening solutions. In-office whitening is the fastest and most comfortable method, often capable of whitening your teeth up to eight shades in as little as one hour. Because the bleaching solution is on your teeth for a minimal amount of time, tooth and gum sensitivity is greatly reduced with this method.
Take-home kits should only be used when purchased from a dentist's office. Professional take-home kits come with customized application trays which not only consistently whiten each tooth in your mouth, they help prevent bleaching solution from coming into contact with sensitive oral tissue. Customized trays will greatly increase the comfort of your whitening procedure while still allowing you to bleach your teeth in the comfort of your own home.
Tooth whitening is considered safe to perform every six months. During your regularly scheduled dental cleanings and examinations, your dentist can evaluate the appearance of your teeth and help you determine if a touch up is necessary.
If you live in or around Sacramento, Roseville, Rocklin, Folsom, or Citrus Heights, California and would like to learn more about your professional teeth whitening options, please visit the website of Advanced Dental Concepts for additional information at www.hightechsmiles.com.

Breast Implant Manufacturers
2012-07-28
In the U.S., only a few different companies manufacture and produce breast implants. Part of the reason for this is because the breast implant industry is extremely competitive.
