When you flip through old photos, it\u2019s nice to be able to see the best version of yourself. You can do that by taking steps to ensure that you look your best before a big event. Cosmetic dentistry can help you do that. In particular, teeth whitening<\/a> can give you a shining smile that\u2019s sure to impress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That said, timing the treatment to coincide with a big event can sometimes be a little bit tricky. Here\u2019s what you ought to know if you want to want to have your teeth look their best on the day of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

What is Teeth Whitening?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

First, it\u2019s best to understand what teeth whitening entails. There are two kinds: in-office and take-home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In-office teeth whitening is done by your dentist, and it\u2019s the fastest option. Your dentist will apply a powerful bleaching solution to your teeth, give it a few minutes to work, then wipe it off. They\u2019ll do this as many times as necessary to give you a perfectly white smile!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At home, solutions can produce the same results from the comfort of your home. Your dentist will give you a professional whitening kit\u2014one much safer and more effective than you can get over the counter\u2014that usually includes a bleaching gel. This solution will be less concentrated than what you\u2019d get from the dentist, so the process will take longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Should I Get Teeth Whitening Before a Big Event?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Most professional take-home kits will take at least 1-2 weeks to see results, so you\u2019ll have to afford yourself enough time for them to take effect. However, in-office whitening can be done within a single session, meaning that you could theoretically get the treatment the day before your event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, most people report a fair amount of tooth sensitivity in the days after their whitening treatment, so if you\u2019re going to a wedding or somewhere else where you\u2019d want to enjoy a few cold drinks, you might want to finish the treatment a week or two before the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take-home whitening\u2019s effects can last for up to a year, and in-office whitening can last up to three\u2014so there\u2019s no reason to rush! If you have a big event a few months down the line, there\u2019s no time like the present to get whitening treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
