Teeth whitening is the most-requested cosmetic dentistry procedure in the United States. At Koch Park Dental in Florissant MO, we’re happy to say we offer our patients several great options.
First, there are two types of stains that we see often: extrinsic and intrinsic.
Extrinsic tooth stains are the easiest to remove. These surface stains have not yet penetrated through the enamel into the dentin. Extrinsic stains are caused by dark-colored foods and liquids like blueberries, carrots, coffee, red wine, and cola. Smoking really does a number on teeth, too.
Intrinsic tooth stains arise from the inside out. Tooth injury or tetracycline are the usual culprits. Intrinsic stains are more difficult to remove totally, but it is possible to lighten them.
We offer Zoom!® teeth whitening, which is done in our office, and delivers the best results in the industry.
At Koch Park Dental in Florissant MO, teeth whitening is just one of our cosmetic dentistry procedures. Patients from Chesterfield, Maryland Heights, and St. Charles also come to us for general and restorative dentistry. Contact us today!
