WHITENING

Custom take-home trays

Austrins Family Dentistry offer custom take-home whitening trays, so you can whiten your teeth to your desired outcome. These are clear plastic trays that are custom made to fit the patient’s teeth, which hold a professional strength whitening gel. We will take an impression of your teeth and make the custom trays to exactly fit your teeth. This customization allows for maximum contact between the whitening gel and the teeth. A custom-made tray also minimizes the gel’s contact with gum tissue.

• Austrins Family Dentistry stocks whitening gel refill solution for touch-ups.

• Whitening is not permanent. People who expose their teeth to foods and beverages that cause staining may see the whiteness start to fade in as little as 1 month. Those who avoid foods and beverages that stain may be able to wait one year or longer before another whitening treatment or touch-up is needed.

• The degree of whiteness will vary from individual to individual depending on the condition of the teeth, nature of the stain, the type of bleaching system used and for how long.
