Teeth whitening involves a bleaching process that helps to eliminate stains from the surface of the teeth caused by foods, drinks, and habits like smoking. The procedure is most effective for individuals with mild to moderate discoloration. Whitening works by using hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide, which breaks down the stain molecules, leading to a whiter smile. Dr. Chickey offers professional, dentist-supervised whitening that ensures safety and effectiveness.
