June 30, 2015

ThinkstockPhotos-187957730So, does Massachusetts deserve an awesome summer, or what? After the winter we survived, everyone in Medford, MA, and the surrounding communities should have a very enjoyable summer. And with all there is to do in the area—cheer for the Red Sox, have a clambake on the Cape, explore the New England Aquarium, stroll through old Boston, sail down the Charles River—there will be plenty of smiles to go around. If you want to make sure your smile will look its best, then now is the time to visit Dr. Anthony Giamberardino for teeth whitening Medford can rely on for a brighter smile.

If your teeth are yellowed, stained or otherwise discolored, then you’re in good company. Millions of Americans have less than perfectly white smiles and the reasons are all generally the same:

  • Commonly consumed foods and drinks, such as berries and tomatoes or coffee and red wine
  • Smoking and chewing tobacco are prime culprits for stained teeth
  • Certain medications, such as the antibiotics tetracycline and doxycycline
  • Teeth grinding and clenching, which can darken the biting surfaces of your teeth
  • Improper oral hygiene
  • The aging process
  • Tooth injuries
  • Genetic predisposition to teeth that are more yellow, brown or gray in color

Teeth Whitening Summerville Smiles For this Summer!

Sure, there are plenty of over-the-counter options for teeth whitening. The problems with those are that you have no idea how long they’ve been sitting on the store shelf. And the longer they sit, the less potent the whitening formula becomes. At Dr. Giamberardino’s office, we offer take home teeth whitening kits that you can be certain are full strength. Our take home kit includes custom-fitted whitening trays and professional grade bleaching gel. Simply fill the trays with gel and wear them for the amount of time Dr. Giamberardino instructs.

For people who have staining or discoloration that will not respond to teeth whitening, we also offer porcelain veneers, which are adhesively bonded to the front side of the teeth in your smile zone in order to create a clean and white smile.

101799276Have you ever wished for a brighter, whiter smile? If so, you’re certainly not alone. Many patients try to achieve a whiter smile using teeth whitening toothpastes and other over-the-counter “solutions.” However, these patients quickly discover just how ineffective these options can be. The only truly reliable method for whitening your teeth is to schedule a professional teeth whitening appointment with Giamberardino Dental Care today.  Dr. Giamberardino is a highly skilled cosmetic dentist, now delivering quality care daily throughout Medford, MA, Winchester, Somerville, Malden, Everett, and the surrounding communities.

Why Do We Need Teeth Whitening?

Our teeth stain and discolor over time for many reasons, including:

  • Foods/drinks: Coffee, tea, colas, wines, and certain fruits and vegetables can stain your teeth.
  • Tobacco use: Smoking or chewing tobacco can also stain teeth.
  • Poor dental hygiene habits: Inadequate brushing and flossing to remove plaque and stain-producing substances can discolor your teeth.
  • Disease: Several diseases that affect enamel and dentin can lead to tooth discoloration.
  • Taking certain medications: The antibiotics tetracycline and doxycycline are known to discolor teeth when given to children, mouth rinses and washes containing chlorhexidine and cetylpyridinium chloride can also stain teeth, and antihistamines, antipsychotic drugs, and drugs for high blood pressure can also cause tooth discoloration.
  • Metal fillings and caps: Some of the materials used in dentistry, such as metal restorations, can cast a gray-black color to teeth.
  • Age: As we age, the outer layer of enamel on our teeth wears away, revealing the naturally yellow dentin underneath.
  • Genetics: Some people have naturally brighter or thicker enamel.
  • Environment: Excessive fluoride either from environmental sources or from excessive use can also cause tooth discoloration.
  • Dental trauma: Damage from a fall can disturb enamel formation in young children whose teeth are still developing.

Dr. Giamberardino Offers Convenient and Reliable Teeth Whitening

We offer take home teeth whitening kits formulated with professional grade ingredients for a superior whitening experience. Our take home kit includes custom whitening trays and professional strength bleaching gel so that you can brighten your smile at your leisure in the comfort of your own home. If you have the type of intrinsic discoloration that won’t respond to traditional bleaching methods, we can also offer porcelain veneers which can permanently cover severely or irreversibly discolored teeth.
