Here are 5 ways you can whiten and brighten your teeth at home or in our office:
1.Whitening Toothpastes/Whitening Pens
A quick and easy way to achieve a whiter smile is to use whitening toothpastes or whitening pens.

Products such as Colgate Optic White, Crest 3D White Vivid Toothpaste and Oral B White Advanced Vivid Toothpaste allow you to remove surface stains as well as plaque build up. The Colgate Optic Whitening Pen allows you to paint a thin layer of whitening gel onto the tooth surface as it is convenient for you. Most can expect to see results in up to 2 days.
2.Whitening Mouth Rinses
Used in combination with whitening toothpastes, mouthwashes such as Colgate Total Lasting White Mouthwash and Crest 3D White Multi-Care Whitening rinse help protect the teeth from buildup of stains. The Triple action formulas remove surface stains from enamel, kill bad breath and protect against future staining.
