If your teeth have lost their luster over time, or are stained by a coffee habit, at Löberg Professional Dental Corporation, we have teeth whitening methods to fit your needs, lifestyle, and preferences.
We offer the Opalescence brand of whitening gels for at-home use, as well as Zoom! Whitening for in-office “power” whitening. Each method offered by Dr. Leif Löberg and his team is safe and effective, but the following benefits and unique features of each treatment may resonate more with you and your unique situation.
Benefits of At-Home Teeth Whitening:
- Gradual – Since the whitening agent isn’t as concentrated as an in-office option, results develop slowly and discreetly. The whitening process takes a week or two, but achieves the same bright smile as the in-office treatment.
- Added health benefits – Opalescence contains minerals like potassium nitrate and fluoride shown to strengthen enamel, decrease sensitivity, and prevent cavities.
- Effective – Unlike over-the-counter whiteners, our at-home option uses a tray made from an impression of your mouth. Since it’s customized to your teeth, precise and proper application of the whitener is assured.
Benefits of In-Office:
- Dramatic results – Dr. Löberg supervises the whitener’s application, so, a stronger, faster bleaching solution can be used than that prescribed for at-home whitening.
- Fast results – As the entire procedure can be completed in one visit, results may be obtained in about one hour. Light is used to speed up the process.
- Easy on sensitive gums, teeth – We can protect teeth and gums from the whitening agents used during treatment with desensitizers.
We have options for whitening beyond Opalescence and Zoom! For instance, those with sensitive teeth, gum inflammation, or stubborn stains may be a better fit for veneers or bonding. Those with other dental conditions may benefit from treatments that also restore, reshape, and realign.
Other considerations like cost are associated with teeth whitening methods at Laguna Hills office of Dr. Leif E. Löberg. We can walk through the options best for you and remove any barriers to the smile of your dreams. Call 949.586.1930.
