Dentist in Springfield, MO Offers Effective Teeth Whitening in One Visit

    SPRINGFIELD, MO, September 26, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Teeth whitening is an effective, minimally invasive way to restore a bright smile. Unfortunately, too many products make bold claims with little results or cause extreme tooth sensitivity.

"Many patients have tried some kind of teeth whitening product at home, from specialty toothpastes to whitening strips," said Dr. Andrew Johns, Springfield dentist. "Although some of the products do work, they require commitment and can take several weeks or months to whiten teeth. Many patients stop using them before they achieve the desired results."

At Meyers and Johns Dental, there is no waiting game. A patient can expect their teeth to be up to eight shades lighter in just one visit. Moreover, the appointment itself takes no more than an hour. "Patients can walk out of my office with significantly whiter teeth in less time than it takes to go see a movie," said Dr. Johns about teeth whitening in Springfield. "I am proud to offer this kind of service."

Dr. Johns uses the advanced Zoom! whitening system. Zoom! utilizes a specially formulated hydrogen peroxide gel that penetrates deep into teeth with light technology. Most patients can expect the same process, though this may vary on individual need. First, Dr. Johns, a Springfield, MO dentist, preps the teeth and gums for application. Then he applies the gel and processes the patient's teeth under the Zoom! light. Lastly, a fluoride rinse cleans and protects teeth.

Unlike do-it-yourself whitening products, teeth whitening at Meyers and Johns Dental lasts several years. "Although some stains are superficial, much of the discoloration that patients experience is happening under the enamel, the layer called the dentin," said Dr. Johns, a dentist in Springfield, MO. Dentin is naturally a pale yellow. As people age, the enamel that covers it wears, leading to further darkening of the dentin as well as staining of the enamel.

"Our teeth lose their luster over time. Couple that with the regular consumption of coffee, tea and other staining products and you have yourself a set of prematurely dull, discolored teeth," said Dr. Johns about Springfield whitening services. "Patients cannot buy products as concentrated as those used in my office. Although completely safe, professional whitening reaches deep discoloration, not just the more superficial stains on the enamel."
