Whitening Your Teeth - The Real Story
A common statement I hear from teeth whitening patients in my office from attempts at making their smile brighter is "whitening doesn't work for me, I have tried everything and they went back to the same color".
In taking their history, various whitening methods will have been tried. Among them:
- A one time procedure with a light that changes them multiple shades, but fades back.
- Over the counter methods like crest strips and such that give mediocre results but gain less than expected.
- Tray systems that are involved with whitening materials that helped some but not a bright as you expected.
Bottom line - teeth whitening is generally an experience that most feel did not give the expected result.
What’s the Big Deal with Tooth Grinding?
To continue to be current on the latest information for my patients, I just attended an extensive, in-depth training on a growing dental disease trend - Tooth grinding. Other names associated with tooth grinding are bruxism or clenching.
It is associated with symptoms in a percentange of individuals such as headaches, jaw aches, toothaches and muscle spasms of the head and neck. But here in lies the irony- more than 70% of people who grind do NOT know they do. The take home lesson, is you could be inflicting irreversible damage and wear without realizing it. It is also known to be linked to sleep apnea, which is also increasing at a rapid rate unfortunately.
