2 Ways to Get Whiter Teeth

White, bright teeth are beautiful. If you want whiter, brighter teeth, the dentist in West Salem, WI, can help you achieve this goal. At Allen Dental, we provide services to help improve the appearance of your teeth in this way. Knowing the difference between these services can help you decide which is right for you. 

1. Teeth Whitening

Professional teeth whitening is a fast, effective way to whiten and brighten your teeth. Teeth whitening happens in just one appointment with the dentist. When the appointment is over, your teeth will be several shades whiter. We’ll also send you home with a take-home maintenance pen, so you can extend the whiteness of your teeth for as long as possible. 

Professional teeth whitening is generally more effective than DIY whitening kits. Talk to your dentist to find out if this is a good option. 

2. Dental Veneers

Dental veneers are a cover your dentist can place over your teeth to hide imperfections. Dental veneers can cover up discolorations, stains, chips, and cracks in your tooth enamel.

To install dental veneers on your teeth, the dentist will need to shave off some of your tooth enamel. Dental veneers can be a great option if the stains on your teeth can’t be fixed with teeth whitening, or if you have other problems that you’d like to address in addition to discolorations. Dental veneers are an excellent option if it’s your goal to give your teeth a straight, even appearance.
