As time passes it’s not uncommon for stains to darken your teeth. This could be compounded by other imperfections, like past dental work that no longer matches the current shade of your tooth enamel. In a situation like this, many people consult with Dr. Chris Bockrath to help select the best whitening method to brighten their smile. Dr. Chris Bockrath has the training and experience needed to help you find the safest and most effective way to meet your whitening goals.

Adding a whitening toothpaste to your daily oral hygiene routine is an easy way to maintain your white smile between dental cleaning appointments. The low concentration of whitening agents in whitening toothpastes simply aren’t potent enough to brighten moderate to deeply stained teeth, though.

Whitening strips are popular and convenient because you can wear them while you go about your day. The clear plastic makes it hard for the casual observer to even notice you’re wearing them. Unfortunately, like whitening toothpaste the topical hydrogen peroxide is only strong enough to whiten minor surface stains.

Deeply stained tooth enamel can only be safely and effectively whitened by the professional dental bleaching procedure offered by Dr. Chris Bockrath. These can be completed in a single visit, and the results are visible right away.
