Dentist in Garden City NY
Over time, substances like wine, coffee, and nicotine can discolor teeth. At The Gentle Dentist, we help patients who have dental anxiety with procedures like teeth whitening, general and restorative dentistry and more. Teeth whitening and dental bleaching is done by our
dentist in Garden City NY in a safe and efficient manner for patients who wish to have whiter teeth.
Patients may need to come back for two to three sessions for their teeth whitening. Total treatment time can take anywhere from a half hour to 45 minutes, depending on the amount of teeth bleaching needed. Our state of the art bleaching system is easy to have done in our offices or with a take home tray for at home use. We’ll first prepare your lips and gums with a special covering so that only the teeth are left exposed, allowing us to safely bleach the teeth without any irritation. Our
dentist in Garden City NY will apply the whitening gel and it will cause stains to break down. The entire procedure takes less than an hour, and patients are in and out of the office with just a few treatments.
Our at home system uses an individualized, custom made tray tailor made to the teeth to ensure that the proper amount of bleach is applied. The procedure takes an hour or so each day, and can last for up to two weeks, done in the comfort of your own home. Depending on brushing and oral hygiene habits, your teeth whitening can last a year or more. Patients are urged to follow proper oral health care habits and to keep teeth clean and to minimize discolor by abstaining from substances that can stain teeth. This includes flossing, brushing daily, and having annual teeth cleanings by our
dentist in Garden City NY.
