What is the best way to get my teeth whiter?

Most people have teeth that are naturally darker than "pure" white. If you want them whiter, the best thing to do is talk to Dr. Dantini about your options. Different people respond differently to different procedures used to whiten teeth. It will take an in-person consultation with Dr. Dantini to determine what is best for you.

Sometimes all it takes is professional prophylaxis to remove stain and then abstinence from behaviors that stain teeth, such as drinking coffee or tea, or smoking tobacco. Some people respond well to the use of whitening toothpastes while some do not. Other options include bleaching. This can be done
with chemicals or with lasers, at home or in the office, under Dr. Dantini's supervision. Sometimes a combination of options can be used.
