Rembrandt® Teeth Whitening

Ask any dentist and he or she will tell you that the best teeth whitening results will always come from a visit to his office. In office, profession teeth whitening is the quickest way to achieve your desired results, it is the most effective as well as the safest method. But it is also the most expensive method and not everyone can afford to pay thousands of dollars to make cosmetic corrections to their smile. Another less talked about reason for avoiding dental office visits is fear. Many people fear dentists based on a childhood experience in the past. The procedure hurt them and they don't want to experience that kind of hurt again. Dentists are quick to point out that things have changed drastically. There is really nothing to fear these days.

While cosmetic dentists advise against using at-home whitening kits, they will candidly admit that some like the Rembrandt® teeth whitening system do work. In fact, if they are used regularly and consistently, the results can outlast those of any professional teeth whitening procedure. At-home teeth whitening products also contain exactly the same products that the dentists use hydrogen peroxide and hydrogen carbomide. What may differ is the amount of percentage in the product. Over-the-counter products are sometimes weaker than the solutions used by professionals.

The other big advantage that Rembrandt® teeth whitening has over the professional visit is that it is cheap compared to dental visits. Most at home products sell for $30 or less. A professional whitening process is going to run you $300 to $2,000 depending on a number of factors. And that is just for the procedure. The final bill is going to be even more when you add in the preparations for the procedure, the prescriptions after and the in home maintenance plan that you need to do as personal follow up.

Cost is not the only thing to be considered however. There is a downside to doing it yourself. Over-the-counter whitening products are generic products designed to be a one-size-fits-all product. However, one size fits all may not be right for your. Everyone reacts differently and what works for one may not work for all. A cosmetic dentist can make this adjustment for you. The product is what it is. If it doesn't work, you need to spend more money for another kind of product.

In-home whitening products don't tell you how strong the chemicals are. You will find this out when you use it and that is not always good, especially if you suffer from overly sensitive teeth and gums. The tray that you will need to use doesn't exactly fit your mouth. It may be too big or too small, making whitening difficult. A small tray, in particular, may cause bleeding gums and other side effects, which may trigger bigger health problems. Take care in selecting an at-home product, and bear in mind that you may still end up at a Cherry Hill cosmetic dentistry center, if none of them work for you.
