What can we do to remove staining?
“Do it yourself” over the counter solutions rarely work effectively (especially with deep staining) and there are a number of negative side effects like tissue burn and tooth sensitivity that make them undesirable.
In office laser whitening with Zoom
Charming Smile Dental Jersey City’s in office laser whitening produces immediate results at the very first visit. The process breaks down and lifts stains from deep within the tooth. Discolored teeth are quickly transformed and can be as much as 8 times whiter in as little as 1 hour. We use Zoom Whitening – the highest quality in office whitening gels available. Whitening is great for weddings, job interviews, class reunions, makeovers or just to feel better about the way you look.

To maintain Stained Free teeth and to achieve long lasting results it’s best to take note of and avoid factors that may cause your teeth to become re-stained.
Use a Straw: This simple tip can help prevent your teeth from coming into contact with beverages such as coffee or soda that may darken your teeth, keeping your teeth whiter for a longer period of time.
Eat ‘Whitening’ Foods: Chew on celery or carrots after drinking wine or coffee as these crunchy items act like a little toothbrush. Apples are another great choice as their acidic nature and fiber-laden flesh have fantastic cleaning capabilities.
Stop Smoking: It’s well known that smoking causes your teeth to go yellow so if you want your teeth to stay white, quit smoking. We understand it’s hard to quit smoking so you can use things like a suorin vape or nicotine patches to help you stop.
Touch Up Whiten Every Few Months: Wear your professional whitening tray and gel for an hour each day for 3-7 days to touch up your smile and remove mild stain deposits. Many people find touching up every 6 months to be effective, but people that smoke or drink large amounts of coffee or tea may need to touch up closer to every 3 months.
Making good choices can reduce additional tooth stain, but it won’t remove what’s already there. Contact us for a teeth whitening plan that will restore your smile, restore or renew your confidence and provide you with strategies to keep your teeth pristine.
