Laser Whitening
QUICKLY & PROFESSIONALLY BRIGHTEN YOUR SMILE
Laser teeth whitening is a noninvasive cosmetic dental procedure designed to reduce discoloration and make your teeth significantly brighter. This treatment is an excellent option for people who want to significantly change the whiteness of their teeth in a shorter period.
In true laser teeth whitening, the laser is required to activate the chemicals in the whitening gel, which produces faster and more effective results. In whitening techniques using lights, including those products you can use at home, the light only functions to produce heat. When whitening gel containing peroxide chemicals heats up, it works faster.
WHY SHOULD YOU GET A LASER WHITENING PROCEDURE?
You can have a new, beautiful smile without really even touching your teeth! This treatment is an amazing option for people who want to get their teeth whiter before a big event, or for people who simply want to cut down the time it takes to get that bright smile they desire. After your laser teeth whitening session, drink only clear liquids for at least two hours. Then, after this time has passed, only eat foods that won’t stain your teeth. Avoid eating dark-pigmented foods, coffee, tea, and soda for at least 24 hours. A few laser whitening benefits include:
Make a great first impression! A white smile not only brings you more confidence, but is a sign of good oral hygiene. While there are several at-home teeth whitening solutions, they don’t work as well as an in-office laser whitening treatment.
The results last longer and a qualified dentist will be able to use methods that protect your teeth’s enamel. Dr. Haywood is a leading teeth whitening dentist in PA. Contact us at (717) 235-3871 to schedule an appointment today!

LASER TEETH WHITENING CARE & MAINTENANCE
Although extremely effective, laser teeth whitening is not a permanent solution. To maintain your teeth whitening results, make sure that you are keeping up with your oral hygiene. If you consume foods and beverages known to stain teeth, use at-home whitening trays to touch-up and prevent darkening. These trays should also be regularly cleaned and sanitized for best results. Laser teeth whitening is a safe and effective procedure. It is unlikely to cause serious side effects but can cause temporary discomfort. Tooth sensitivity and minor gum irritation are the most common side effects. They are typically mild and short-lasting but can be severe in some people. An allergic reaction is also possible.
