One of the easiest ways to achieve a bolder and brighter smile that you can be proud of is through teeth whitening. With so many teeth whitening kits available today, it can be tempting to pick one up and try it for yourself at home. However, there are a significant number of benefits for getting your teeth professionally whitened rather than using a DIY kit at home. Check out a few of the many benefits of having your teeth professionally whitened! 

Dental Staff Are Experienced

When you choose to head to the dentist to have your teeth whitened, you know you can trust the experienced and knowledgeable dental staff. The staff is professionally trained and has the equipment needed to perform the service as safely and effectively as possible. Also, whitening trays bought from the store are typically one size fits all which means that gel could leak from the tray potentially harming your gums and mouth. 

Professional Services are More Effective

At-home whitening kits often have a much lower concentration of hydrogen peroxide rendering them not as effective in achieving a dramatic shade change as you would see with in-office treatments. Professional products are much stronger which means that you’ll be able to see more noticeable results in less time. 

Dentists Can Monitor Your Dental Health

Anytime you stop in the office for a teeth whitening procedure, your dentist can evaluate your teeth and gums prior to beginning to make sure you have proper dental health. Any signs of gum problems or tooth decay will be treated prior to beginning the whitening to ensure that the products used don’t cause any pain or harm. Additionally, your dentist may notice underlying causes for teeth staining and can help identify ways to protect your teeth from future staining. 

At Cakmes Dental Studio, we offer some of the latest technologies and services to help you safely and effectively whiten your smile. Our Philips Zoom in-office whitening service brightens your teeth up to 8 shades whiter with little to no sensitivity. Our office also offers custom-fitted tooth-whitening trays to be used at home with whitening gel.

Right now, we are running a half-off promotion for our Philips Zoom in-office whitening service, making it just $199 instead of the regular $399. This offer is only valid through the end of the year so make sure to take advantage of it and achieve your whitest smile possible!

As we approach the end of the year, now’s the time to make sure that you’re caught up on all of your dental care so that you don’t let any of your benefits go to waste. If you have dental insurance, you will generally have 2 covered visits to the dentist per year for routine checkups and cleanings.  

Most benefit plans and flexible spending accounts (FSAs) have a deadline of December 31st, which means that any benefits or dental visits you haven’t used will be lost after this date. Double-check with your insurance provider or employer and be sure to take advantage of your insurance plan so you don’t let your money go to waste!

Preventative care is one of the most effective ways to prevent more serious issues down the line. If you haven’t paid a visit to the dentist in a while, use one of your covered dental checkups to come in for a routine cleaning. Maintaining proper dental hygiene and oral health is a much cheaper alternative to paying thousands of dollars later on when a condition requires a more expensive treatment. 

At Cakmes Dental Studio, our team of passionate and experienced professionals is here to assist you with any of your dental needs. Whether you’re overdue for a routine cleaning, have a dental health concern, or are looking for cosmetic dental work, you can be confident that we’ll provide you with the finest dental care.
