Whiter, Brighter Teeth on Valentine’s Day

There are many kinds of kisses – It may be an I love you kiss, or a quick kiss goodbye. But some of the most important kisses are given on Valentine’s Day.

But no matter what kind, a kiss should always be special. But, if our dental health is more ordinary than optimal, or even poor, nobody is going to want to kiss us. And that’s just wrong on Valentine’s Day! Poor dental hygiene can lead to bad breath, dingy teeth, an unattractive smile, and even poor general health.

At Simply Smiles Dental we suggest a number of things we can do to ensure that kissability remains constant, on Valentine’s Day and beyond.

Your Whitest Smile on Valentine’s Day

One of the least invasive ways to enhance your smile is very effective and inexpensive. The process is teeth whitening. With a range of options, there has never been a better time to try professional tooth whitening.

The process begins with a checkup, and you need to tell Simply Smiles Dental if you have any existing dental work. Then, if you are a good candidate for the treatment, your dentist will help you decide if you want in-home or in-office whitening.

Some patients opt for the flexibility of take home tooth whitening while others prefer to do in-office whitening. At home teeth whitening trays are available for patients who want to do their whitening on their own time with a schedule that works best for them. At home whitening is usually less expensive, but takes longer to see results and can also result in damage to your mouth.

In office whitening usually takes about an hour, and the results our instant – You will walk out of the dentist’s office with a whiter, brighter smile.
