Enhance Your Smile’s Appearance with Professional Teeth Whitening!
No matter how well you look after your teeth, they will lose their shine over time. Your teeth may become discolored because of the foods you eat, medications you take, or simply as part of the natural aging process. Whatever the case, stained teeth can make you feel embarrassed when smiling or talking.
Have you had enough of your discolored smile? Grandview Center for Dentistry offers KoR teeth whitening in Edina, Minnesota—one of the safest and most effective ways to erase stubborn stains. Don’t let tooth stains diminish your smile and confidence. Schedule an appointment with Dr. Bridget Lervick and the team today!
Why are my teeth yellow or dark?
Tooth staining happens when pigment molecules become embedded within the tooth’s microstructures. This causes your teeth to lose their natural whiteness over time. Despite your best efforts to keep your teeth white, daily interactions can diminish the luminous shine of your smile.
The following are the reasons your teeth may become discolored.
- Stain-causing foods and drinks like coffee, wine, tea, dark berries, etc.
- Poor oral hygiene
- Smoking
- Certain medications, including beta blockers and diuretics
- Certain medical procedures, like chemotherapy
- Aging
- Poor genetics
- Excessive fluoride exposure (fluorosis)
Teeth whitening at our office begins with a comprehensive examination of your smile to ensure it’s free from decay, gum disease, and extreme sensitivity. These issues must be addressed before teeth whitening. After an initial exam, we’ll professionally clean your teeth to remove plaque and tartar that may inhibit the effectiveness of the whitening agents.
Why KoR teeth whitening?
Peroxide-based gels are commonly used in all teeth whitening methods to brighten smiles. These compounds penetrate the enamel and break down stains into smaller molecules. Our office uses KoR because it’s one of the most effective whitening systems in the world. KoR is head and shoulders above other whitening systems because of the following unique features.
- Refrigeration: KoR is one of the few whitening methods that are kept at the correct temperature from when it’s manufactured until it’s used on your teeth. What’s the big deal, you ask? When the gel is kept refrigerated, it doesn’t lose its efficacy. Most unrefrigerated gels are only active for 25-30 minutes, while KoR can stay active for up to 10 hours! Each application of KoR ensures optimal teeth whitening results. No wonder this teeth whitening system can lighten your teeth up to 16 shades!
- Innovative KöR-Seal™ trays: The airtight KoR trays prevent saliva and other impurities from contaminating the whitening gel, preserving the potency of the whitening formula. This means KoR whitens your teeth faster and more effectively than many whitening systems. KoR erases even the toughest stains, including tetracycline, that were previously deemed permanent.
- Desensitizing: You’ll experience little to no sensitivity after using KoR. This revolutionary teeth whitening uses desensitizers that plug pores of the tooth enamel during teeth whitening to prevent sensitivity even before it begins. KoR enables you to achieve a bright, white smile comfortably.
