Teeth Whitening and Dental Makeovers

Dental makeovers are a fantastic way to dramatically improve a smile in a relatively short amount of time. While the possibilities are seemingly endless, a common staple in any dental makeover is teeth whitening.

Teeth whitening can be accomplished in a number of ways. Dental makeovers often make use of porcelain crowns and veneers to create a mouth of pearly whites. But traditional teeth whitening treatments can be just as effective at brightening a smile. Treatment plans vary, so the approach taken will depend on your specific case. But here is a look at some of the considerations.

If your treatment plan dictates that you have porcelain crowns or veneers on at least some of your visible teeth and you will also have some visible natural teeth, you should have your natural teeth whitened to your desired shade first. This will allow your crowns or veneers to be matched to your whiter teeth.

Existing crowns, veneers and dental fillings do not respond to whitening treatments. Therefore, if you have any of these in your visible smile, they will need to be replaced in order to be matched to your whiter teeth.
