Posted on 3/21/2022 by SRD Tuscumbia
FAQs about Teeth Whitening ToothpastesMany whitening toothpastes are available and so when choosing the best toothpaste to use for your teeth then you need help from a dental professional. Some toothpaste whitens the teeth when you gently polish the teeth and remove discoloration from the drinks and foods. Some other pastes have bleaching agents and they change the color of teeth completely The dental professional at our practice will guide you on the best toothpaste and what product to use to whiten the teeth.

How do I choose whitening toothpaste?


If you need to remove surface stains, then choose some mild abrasives which do not bleach but change the color of the teeth. The mild abrasives gently abrade the tooth enamel. Hydrogen peroxide bleaches the teeth by changing the color of teeth. The peroxide concentration is high and so it gives results that can be noticed much easily. Carbamide peroxide breaks down other compounds and is a whitening agent that is found in trays and whitening gels.

Is using whitening paste daily safe?


If you have doubts on whether you should use the whitening paste every day then read the instructions that are on the paste. If there is too much sensitivity, then you can alternate with other toothpaste that you use on regular basis.

How do I protect my enamel after whitening?


The first thing that you should do after whitening is try to fortify the enamel. This can be done by the use of toothpaste that has compounds of strengthen the teeth' enamel. Keep the enamel healthy and this will help in the prevention of stains on the surface of the teeth. The dental hygienist will guide you on how you can get a strong enamel, the toothpaste, and even the diet to take for stronger enamel.
