Khanna Dentistry PC of Geneva: Achieve a Brighter Smile with Cosmetic Dentistry

Your smile is not only a reflection of your dental health but also plays a significant role in how you’re perceived. According to a survey by Oral B, people with white teeth are perceived as 20 percent more attractive and up to 13 years younger. If dull, stained, or discolored teeth are affecting your confidence, consider dentist-supervised teeth whitening as a solution.

Causes of Tooth Discoloration

Several factors contribute to dark or dull enamel, including genetics, certain medications, dietary habits, and tobacco use. As we age, teeth naturally darken. At Khanna Dentistry PC of Geneva, our experienced dental team offers effective solutions to brighten your smile and address various types of tooth staining.

Options for Teeth Whitening

  1. Professional Teeth Whitening:
    In-office teeth whitening is the fastest way to achieve noticeable results. Utilizing a potent yet safe bleaching gel applied by our skilled dental professionals, this method ensures rapid and significant whitening. We may enhance the process with laser light treatment for accelerated results, carefully protecting your gums and soft tissues throughout the procedure.
  2. Porcelain Veneers for Stubborn Stains:
    For patients with internal staining resistant to traditional whitening methods, porcelain veneers offer a transformative solution. These custom-made, thin shells are bonded to the front of your teeth, masking discoloration and creating a uniform, radiant smile. Our dentist will discuss whether veneers are the right option to achieve your desired level of whiteness.

Benefits of Professional vs. At-Home Teeth Whitening

  • Professional Whitening: Provides quicker and more dramatic results compared to over-the-counter options. The procedure is tailored to your specific needs and supervised by dental experts for optimal safety and efficacy.
  • At-Home Whitening: Customized gel and tray kits from our office offer a convenient alternative for patients preferring to whiten their teeth at home. While results are typically less dramatic than in-office treatments, they are safer and more predictable than over-the-counter products, especially for individuals with sensitive teeth or gums.
