What is Teeth Whitening?
Teeth whitening is the process of changing the colour of your teeth. The process involves changing the colour of your teeth and controlling the formation of future discolouration. When teeth undergo the whitening process, the chemical hydrogen peroxide is applied as the agent that whitens the teeth. The hydrogen peroxide that is applied to the teeth, undergoes the process of diffusing and behaves as an oxidized agent. Once the hydrogen peroxide takes on the characteristics of oxidation, it begins creating free radicals and attach to pigment left by foods and drinks we consume. During the oxidation process, the pigment is reduced and reflects less light, which results in them not being seen.
What is Dental Stain Removal?
Dental stain removal in Richmond Hill can only be performed by a professional. Richmond Hill Dental Care specializes in stain removal and the prophylaxis process. Dental prophylaxis involves an oral professional using a prophy paste, which is a grainy paste that is used to clean the teeth. The prophy paste is applied to a professional electronic rotating tool and used to implement the paste that is fortified with fluoride to the surface of the teeth. The micro-abrasion process is performed in some cases for stain removal and involves the use of a combination of water and a powdery substance to remove the biofilm on the teeth and stains. The stain removal process improves the oral health of the patient and is part of the treatment for periodontal disease prevention offered at Richmond Dental Care.
