TEETH WHITENING 101
Let’s begin with a simple overview of tooth anatomy.
You’re probably aware that our skin has pores and these pores affect the appearance of our skin. But did you know that teeth also have teeny, microscopic pores?
These teeny, microscopic pores are what can cause tooth sensitivity.
The outer layer of your tooth is called enamel and under that is your dentine. Inside the dentine are the teeny, tiny, microscopic pores.
When you have exposed roots, otherwise known as recession, the enamel is not present and your dentinal tubules are more easily exposed to air, hot and cold food and drinks.
Celebrity Smiles® whitening products include ingredients that protect the dentinal tubules from hot, cold and tooth sensitivity. The ingredients are enamel safe.
Celebrity Smiles® formula includes Carbamide Peroxide which turns into hydrogen and oxygen at a slow rate.
Also included in the ingredients is Potassium Nitrate Fluoride. This ingredient acts like a fur coat to protect your teeth from any type of sensitivity while you are using your whitening serum.
TEETH STAINS
There are two types of stains that you may see on your teeth.
The first type of stains you may see are called intrinsic stains. Intrinsic stains are due to natural causes such as: aging, genetics, illnesses, high blood pressure, diabetes, medications taken during the gestation period, etc.
Extrinsic stains develop on the outer layer of the teeth thanks to the food we eat, colorful beverages (think coffee and tea), and negative actions such as tobacco use.
Good News: Stains on the outside of your teeth (extrinsic stains) are much easier to remove. This makes teeth whitening a great option if you want to keep away those awful looking stains!
Stains are the result of microscopic atoms or molecules, that make the teeth appear darker; usually more yellow or brown.
The active ingredients used in Celebrity Smiles® teeth whitening products can reverse the discolored extrinsic stains and create those pearly whites you dream about.
FACTORS THAT DETERMINE EFFECTIVENESS
Below are a few factors that determine the effectiveness and the results of your tooth whitening product.
These include:
- Hydrogen Peroxide: Evaporates, dissolves into hydrogen and oxygen very quickly
- Carbamide Peroxide: Dissolves into hydrogen peroxide (Hydrogen and Oxygen) over approximately 20 minutes. ingredients have a longer sustainability
- Exposure time: The amount of time active ingredients remain on your teeth
- Temperature: Over time, a high temperature can inactivate the hydrogen and oxygen atoms in the serum
- pH: A pH level below 7.0 is considered acidic. The lower the number, the more harmful to your teeth.
SAFE AND COST EFFECTIVE TREATMENTS
At-home whitening treatments can be safe and cost effective. It is a great option if you are price sensitive and/or you don’t have a lot of time to spend whitening your teeth in a dental office.
Most dental offices can make a whitening tray for you and they will probably give you a syringe of whitening gel. All this takes time and can cost a lot of money.
At home teeth whitening options are less expensive and require less time to accomplish the same results.
