When people in Mississauga contact us about teeth whitening, they want solutions that are safe, work and make their smile look better. At Mistry Dental, we offer professional whitening treatments that make a big difference while keeping your teeth healthy. We know that a brighter smile can make you feel better about yourself and leave a lasting impression in your personal and professional life.
Teeth whitening done by a professional is very different from products you buy in stores. We use stronger whitening solutions that get deeper into the enamel of the teeth to remove tough stains. Our careful application ensures that the product covers everything evenly and eliminates sensitivity problems that sometimes happen with over-the-counter products. Before we start any whitening treatment, we check your teeth for any problems that could compromise the results. We can help you get the bright, natural looking smile you want by taking our time.
We have both in-office and at-home whitening options to fit your schedule and preference. In just one hour our in-office treatment gives you amazing results. Before we apply the professional strength whitening gel, we apply a protective barrier on your gums to protect them. Some people like this option because they see results right away and like the fact that everything is done under the watchful eye of a specialist. Busy professionals and people getting ready for big events like the idea of being able to get treatment done in one visit.
Patients who want gradual results or have sensitive teeth can use take-home whitening kits. We make trays that fit your teeth perfectly and hold the whitening gel evenly against them. These trays prevent the gel from seeping onto your gums which happens a lot with generic trays. We give you clear instructions and monitor you throughout the whole process. Most people get the color they want within two weeks of using it regularly. This is great for people who want to whiten their teeth at their own pace.
Not everyone reacts the same to whitening treatments. Coffee, tea or age related yellow stains usually get lighter easily. Gray discolouration caused by drugs or trauma is harder to fix. During your visit we talk about what you can realistically expect and sometimes suggest other treatments for certain types of discolouration. Some people with really bad stains get better results with Porcelain Veneers which can make their smile permanently white.
We stress how important it is to get ready before whitening treatments. Cleaning by a professional removes stains and plaque on the surface that can interfere with the whitening process. Before we start whitening we also check for cavities or gum disease that need to be treated. Taking care of these problems first will ensure you get the best results and avoid pain. Whitening works better on healthy teeth and keeps them whiter longer.
Managing sensitivity is still important as you go through the whitening process. We adjust the strength and length of your treatment based on how comfortable you are. Special desensitizing solutions can help reduce any transient sensitivity you may have. Most patients say professional whitening is far more comfortable than they thought it would be. We give you advice on how to manage minor sensitivity at home, using toothpaste for sensitive teeth or avoiding hot or cold foods for a short time.
To keep your newly whitened smile you need to make a few simple changes to your daily routine. We recommend you avoid foods and drinks that can stain your teeth for the first 48 hours after treatment when they are most likely to change color. Regular cleanings keep your results by removing surface stains before they set in. Every six to twelve months touch-up treatments keep your smile looking its best. We make personalized plans for you to keep your teeth white based on your habits and goals.We still worry about the safety of teeth whitening in Mississauga. We only use products that are approved by dentists and have been proven to be safe through many studies. Our team stays up to date with the latest whitening techniques and technology. We check each patient to make sure whitening is safe for their teeth. This professional supervision gives you peace of mind that your smile makeover won’t harm your oral health.
