For professional teeth whitening in Meridian Idaho, check out  Orme  Because let’s be honest: one of the first things you notice about someone is their smile. It can leave an immediate, subconscious impact on those around them, giving an impression of youth, health, energy, and happiness. When you meet a person with a bright, natural smile, it catches your attention.

Over time, the natural aging process, along with the drinking coffee, tea, wine, or possibly smoking, can stain your teeth. Those stains make us look older and less healthy. To get back to looking your best, teeth whitening is one of the most cost-effective ways to improve your smile.

Teeth Whitening Increases The Value of a Smile

Research shows that smiles are incredibly important in our day to day life. According to a survey by the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, 99.7% of adults believe a smile is an important social asset, 96% believe that an attractive smile makes a person more appealing in romantic relationships, and 74% of adults believe an unattractive one can hurt a person’s career success. For most people, “whiter and brighter teeth” was the number one response when asked how they could improve their smiles. If you’re looking for ways to improve your smile here in Meridian Idaho, our process may be right for you.

Causes of Tooth Discoloration

Genetics, antibiotics, and age all play a role in tooth enamel discoloration. As we get older, our teeth naturally lose some of their luster. Baby teeth (deciduous teeth) always tend to be whiter than adult ones; this is part of the reason why white teeth gives us an impression of youth. Along with being part of the natural aging process, certain foods and drinks also can contribute to staining and early discoloration of teeth.

Internal discoloration of a tooth comes from changes in enamel and the dentin of the tooth. If your teeth get exposed to high levels of flouride, tetracylcine, or overuse of antibiotics as a child, there may be internal discoloration in your teeth. Additionally, tooth decay, restorations, root canal issues and trauma may also cause discoloration.
