People who smile generously are generally seen as friendlier, more approachable, more likable, and more trustworthy by the people around them, which gives them a distinct advantage when it comes to meeting people, earning trust, and closing sales. This makes smiling one of the best things to do if you are seeking a new job or a promotion at work, but many people are shy about showing their smiles due to unsightly stains and discoloration. Here\u2019s how teeth whitening treatments from your dentist<\/a> can help you land that juicy new position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

How Do Dental Stains Form?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Teeth process a lot of material over the decades, and items that are high in dyes and pigments can leave unflattering stains in the enamel. Common culprits behind stains and discoloration include coffee, tea, red wine, berries, and colorful candies. The stains formed can be intrinsic, which means they are located beneath the enamel, or extrinsic, which means they are located on its surface. Eventually, a patient may be left with teeth that are yellowish, brownish, or even purplish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Can My Dentist Help?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cosmetic dentists offer teeth whitening treatments in two forms, and both can leave your smile up to eight shades whiter. The first is an in-office procedure that can be completed in about an hour. During this treatment, your dentist will place barriers in your mouth to protect your soft tissues before applying a few coats of concentrated whitening agent to the teeth and treating them with a specialized light. You\u2019ll leave the office ready to show off your newly brightened smile at work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your dentist can also whiten your teeth with a take-home kit that can be completed over about two weeks. Each kit contains customized dental trays and a tube of professional-grade whitening gel. You\u2019ll only have to apply the gel to the trays and wear them over your teeth for about an hour daily. After two weeks have passed, your smile will be amazingly bright and shiny.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aren\u2019t Store-Bought Products Just as Good?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While you can find many whitening products at stores and pharmacies, they cannot match the safety and efficacy of professional treatments. These store-bought kits often produce lackluster results, and many patients sustain injuries due to user error or poor manufacturing of the products. By having your teeth whitened by a qualified professional, you can enjoy the peace of mind that comes from knowing that you are in safe hands that will deliver impressive results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Teeth whitening can help you make excellent first impressions at work and in the social scene. Scheduling a consultation with your dentist will allow them to determine if this cosmetic treatment can be a good fit for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
