How to improve your looks and achieve a whiter smile
A shiny smile with pearly teeth has been pursuit by many people over countless years. Although within contemporary dentistry exist a vast amount of cosmetic procedures, dental whitening still is the most effective way to achieve a significant change in your aesthetics without undergoing a more invasive treatment such as veneers or crowns.
Currently, there are many different ways to get a whitening. Whether you use over-the-counter products to do it at home or decide to go for professional whitening at a dental office, you are guarantee to improve your looks. However, there are certain aspects you must acknowledge before deciding to get a whitening as not everyone is a candidate for it.
As aesthetics play an important role in most people’s lives, FOSOO has designed special toothbrushes that will help you achieve whiter teeth while also taking care of your overall oral health. The FOSOO electric toothbrush is tailor-made to deliver both a comfortable experience while using it and effective results, allowing you to see positive changes in no time.
In this article, we’ll explain how whitening works, how to do it, some special considerations you might need, and how FOSOO can help you achieve your desired smile through its toothbrushes.
What is teeth whitening?
Although it may seem obvious, teeth whitening consists of turning your teeth to a whiter or lighter shade of color. However, this process is not as simple as it sounds.
In reality, what teeth whitening does is remove the stains on the teeth that make them look yellow or greyish, restoring them to their original lighter color.
As the enamel is a clear layer, almost transparent, it is normal for it to be easily affected by pigments present in food, drinks, and other products you may consume. As you grow older, the number of pigments absorbed by the enamel increases, and the teeth slowly change their color, turning darker and gaining unpleasant tones.
Thus, dental whitening’s main goal is to eliminate these stains to improve aesthetics.
Now, the stains affecting your teeth are divided into two types:
Extrinsic stains
These types of stains are located on the outer surface of the enamel. Therefore, they can be mechanically removed without the need for chemical agents.
Usually, this group is comprised of nicotine and tartar build-ups. Smoking can leave a sticky film behind that adheres to the surface of your teeth and make them look yellow. These stains can be removed by a dentist with just a professional cleaning.
However, that is not the only way to deal with them. The FOSOO electric toothbrush is designed to remove these types of stains, making your teeth look white once again. It possesses 4 cleaning modes to achieve different results.
Moreover, it even got a mode specially designed to eliminate extrinsic stains. While in whitening mode, the toothbrush will alternate between strong and weak vibrations to remove every stain effectively and leave your teeth shiny again.
Also, by vibrating at up to 42.000 motions per minute, this electric toothbrush will ensure that you achieve the results you are looking for while also keeping your mouth healthy and free of cavities and gum disease.
Intrinsic stains
These stains are located in the inner layers of the enamel. Once the teeth have been in constant contact with the pigment, they penetrate the enamel and reach its deeper layer, changing its color from the inside out.
Unlike extrinsic stains, intrinsic stains can only be removed using chemical methods. This can be done at home with over-the-counter products or at the dental office with a professional whitening session.
All these products contain either carbamide or hydrogen peroxide. Moreover, the difference between professional and home products relies on the concentrations of peroxide inside of them. Whereas over-the-counter products can be used in the comfort of your home, their concentration is lower than the one used by the dentist, and the results will take longer to appear.
Peroxide is capable of penetrating the enamel and reach the layers where the stains reside. Once this happens, it induces chemical oxidation, resulting in the breakdown of the pigment molecules. As a result, the stains are eliminated, restoring the teeth’ color.
Special considerations
Same as with any other cosmetic dental procedure, certain aspects need to be taken into consideration before opting for a whitening.
• Peroxide doesn’t work on restorations: Whitening agents only work on the teeth. Therefore, if there is a composite or ceramic restoration on a visible zone of the smile, such as the upper incisors, undergoing dental whitening will create a color discrepancy between the natural tooth and the restoration, resulting in a non-aesthetic result.
• Peroxide can cause temporal hypersensitivity: The chemical reaction between peroxide and the stains can irritate the dental pulp. Furthermore, this will lead to an unpleasant hypersensitivity that could last for a few days.
• Whitenings are not permanent: As the whitening only eliminates the stains without giving any type of protection, the teeth can be re-stained if they stay in constant contact with pigment agents. However, making small changes such as consuming less food and drinks rich in dyes or rinsing after doing it can prolong the time you will have to wait until another whitening is necessary.
Getting a dental whitening is as simple as booking an appointment at a dental office or buying an over-the-counter whitening system and follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
However, it is not always necessary, and using a good toothbrush can be enough to leave your teeth shiny once again. The FOSOO electric toothbrush will ensure that you remove all the stains on the surface of your teeth. Moreover, its sleek design will bring comfort to your oral care routine, and its wide variety of colors allows you to choose the one that’s more suitable to your style, giving you the option to even get a pink electric toothbrush to make a positive change in your lifestyle and oral care.
Each one of FOSOO's products is designed to improve your oral health most effectively and efficiently while making sure that you achieve the results you have been looking for.
