Discolored, dark or stained teeth fixed with tooth whitening dentistry
 

Tooth bleaching involves the placement of a bleaching solution on the teeth to eliminate stains and discoloration. The solution is held in place by a custom-made, see-through tray that fits over the teeth - much like a mouthpiece worn by a professional boxer.

Bleaching is a safe, effective and relatively easy means of producing a whiter smile.

Two bleaching methods are available at North Pointe Dental Associates: Power Bleaching with a Laser, done at our office, and At-Home-Bleaching, which provides for home use (not to be confused with over-the-counter bleaching products available in local Tampa area drug stores).

The difference between the two is the strength of the whitening agent and the time it takes to get effective results.  Power bleaching usually takes three to six visits, while home bleaching may take up to four weeks of regular use.

Sensitive teeth, or those that are chipped, eroded or weakened by cavities, should be repaired or protected before they are bleached.

Please don't hesitate to call North Pointe Dental Associates at (813) 961-1727 with any questions you may have about the benefits of tooth whitening or tooth bleaching for a whiter smile.

*Minimal sedation, also known as anxiolysis, is the use of oral and inhalation medications to relieve anxiety before and during
 dental procedures that minimally reduce consciousness in an effort to reduce fear and anxiety, while still maintaining
 normal breathing and the ability to respond appropriately to physical and verbal stimulation.
