Dental Services ❯ Cosmetic Dentistry ❯ Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is a popular cosmetic dental service that can help restore your smile to a pearly white appearance and boost your confidence! It is a very safe and effective procedure under the supervision of our professional cosmetic dental team at Markham Dental Solutions.
There are several methods of teeth whitening, including professional treatments performed by a dentist, over-the-counter and natural remedies.
The professional teeth whitening formula used by our Markham dentist contains hydrogen peroxide, which breaks down into water and oxygen molecules when exposed to the air and water in your mouth. The oxygen molecules will attach to stain particles on your teeth to break them down. This formula provides a higher percentage of hydrogen peroxide than over-the-counter (OTC) products to give you a brighter smile.
While over-the-counter (OTC) products such as whitening toothpaste, dental strips, or whitening kits may seem like more affordable options, they are most likely weaker and therefore require more treatments to achieve the same results. This can cause your teeth to become more sensitive and uncomfortable.
It's important to note that teeth whitening may not be appropriate for everyone, particularly those with sensitive teeth or existing dental problems. It's always best to consult with our Markham dentist, Dr. Anet Biuss before starting any teeth whitening regimen.

Teeth whitening uses a bleaching product or an abrasive to make teeth whiter.
Teeth whitening does not change the appearance of dental work like crowns, fillings, and dentures.
The Canadian Dental Association recommends that teeth whitening and bleaching be deferred until after pregnancy. This is because it is a purely cosmetic dental treatment, and bleaching products have not been tested in pregnant women.
Tooth sensitivity and soft-tissue irritation are the most common short-term effects after a teeth whitening treatment. If irritation and sensitivity persist, please visit our office for help.
The results of a teeth whitening treatment can vary depending on lifestyle choices such as smoking and consumption of staining foods and beverages.
The Canadian Dental Association recommends that teeth whitening and bleaching products should not be used for children under 12 years of age.
Professional teeth whitening is not permanent. A teeth whitening bleaching treatment can last up to three years, depending on lifestyle.
