Dazzlingly white smiles aren't just for celebrities, thanks to state-of-the-art teeth whitening treatments. Today patients from the Fairfax, Arlington, Reston, Vienna, and Washington, D.C. region can receive advanced teeth whitening at Rye Smiles for Life. Capable of brightening even the most discolored smiles, Dr. D. Gordon Rye can whiten teeth discolored by coffee, medications, cigarettes, and aging with powerful whitening treatments at our cosmetic dentistry office.
Dr. Rye’s in-office and at-home bleaching options differ in the strength of their whitening agents and the time it takes to produce results. Sensitive teeth, or those that are chipped, eroded or weakened by cavities, should be repaired or protected before they are bleached.
Power bleaching is a great option for residents of Fairfax, Arlington, Reston, Vienna, and Washington, D.C. who want quick teeth whitening results. During the power bleaching procedure, a rubber protector guards the gums while the whitening solution is applied to the teeth and activated with a laser. The laser light stimulates the release of cleansing oxygen molecules from the solution, which then penetrates the enamel to bleach away discolorations. While some patients may experience mild sensitivity and white patches at the gum line, these symptoms disappear within a few days. Power bleaching can provide lasting teeth whitening in just three to six one-hour visits to our Fairfax office.
Dr. D. Gordon Rye prescribes premium at-home teeth whitening systems far superior to over-the-counter whitening products found in local drugstores. Our at-home teeth whitening products eliminate stains and discolorations with a bleaching solution held in place by clear, custom-made trays that fit over the teeth like a mouth guard. In a single visit, Dr. Rye can mold a patient’s whitening tray to fit the teeth comfortably. At home, patients must simply fill the trays with whitening solution and wear them every night until achieving the desired level of whiteness.
With regular use, at-home bleaching takes up to four weeks to completely whiten teeth. At-home bleaching is a perfect option for residents of Arlington, Reston, Vienna, and Washington, D.C. who would like teeth whitening treatment but cannot visit our Fairfax office on a regular basis.
If you live in the areas of Fairfax, Arlington, Reston, Vienna, or Washington, D.C., and would like more information on teeth whitening procedures available at our office, please do not hesitate to contact Rye Smiles for Life. We look forward to hearing from you to schedule a consultation.
