Teeth Whitening in McCrae

Over time, it’s perfectly normal for your teeth to lose some of their whiteness and brightness, so fortunately, you may be a candidate for professional teeth whitening from Bays Dental Clinic. We offer our patients convenient take-home teeth whitening products that they can use on their schedule in the privacy of their own homes.

What Causes Tooth Discolouration in the First Place?

Over time, your teeth can become yellow or stained for the following reasons:

• Age or genetic disposition
• Eating certain foods, such as red sauce, soy sauce and berries
• Drinking certain beverages, such as coffee, tea, red wine and cola
• Lifestyle choices, such as tobacco use
• Certain medications that your doctor prescribes
• Injury or trauma to your teeth

Why Choose Professional Teeth Whitening From Bays Dental Clinic?

There are many over-the-counter teeth whitening products on the market today, but there are many benefits to choosing our professional teeth whitening system.

Benefits of Professional Teeth Whitening

• Prescription-strength whitening gel typically helps achieve whiter teeth in less time than the whiteners you can purchase at the store.
• Teeth whitening trays that are custom-made to fit your mouth help to keep the whitening gel on your teeth instead of some of it potentially getting on your gums and cause irritation.
• Our professional dental team supervises your take-home teeth whitening system; we will give you detailed instructions for use, and we can monitor your progress and be available to answer your questions.

Will My Teeth Whitening Last?

A common question in our McCrae dental clinic is how long the take-home professional teeth whitening will last. Unfortunately, there isn’t a set answer to that question. 

How to Know if Your Teeth Whitening Will Last

Oral health – You must brush and floss your teeth regularly and visit your McCrae dentist every six months to keep your teeth as white and bright as possible.

Food and drink – If you return to eating and drinking the same foods and drinks that stained your teeth in the first place, your teeth whitening results will fade over time. You can either avoid these foods and beverages or rinse your mouth afterwards to help lengthen your whitening time.

Tobacco products – If you smoke or use tobacco, your whitening results may not last as long as you’d like.

The good news is that you can do touch-ups on your teeth if you notice that they aren’t as white as they used to be.
