Whitening Teeth is Not New, But Truly Advanced

08/19/2009

Everyone knows how important a smile is. Flashing a white smile can light up a room and make you look years younger. So, why do so many people walk around with yellow teeth from wine, coffee, cigarettes or medication? Well, Dr. Kourosh Maddahi, Beverly Hills cosmetic dentist, offers an easy, affordable solution for everyone. Dr. Maddahi uses the latest teeth whitening technology which is very important because it also lessens teeth sensitivity.

History of Teeth Whitening:
It all started with toothpaste. The Egyptians actually used a toothbrush in 2000 BC, made of powdered pumice stone and wine vinegar that they brushed on with a chew stick. But barbers were actually the first teeth whiteners. The old red and white barber pole was what you looked for if you wanted your teeth whitened. Barbers doubled as dental surgeons, mainly for pulling teeth. But they also whitened teeth. The barbers would file your teeth down with a metal file, then dab them with corrosive nitric acid. It definitely whitened teeth but it also destroyed the enamel, which eventually led to teeth decay. But the all-important white smile motivated people to continue this practice into the 18th century.

Latest Teeth Whitening Technology:
Fortunately, there is a technology today that won’t ruin the enamel. Dr. Kourosh Maddahi is a leader in cutting-edge cosmetic dentistry. That’s why he uses only the greatest in-office teeth-whitening system, ZOOM ADVANCED POWER PLUS. It is remarkably effective and safe and can whiten and brighten discolored teeth up to nine shades lighter! And, it can be done in an hour at his comfortable spa-like offices.

So how is it done? Dr. Maddahi first applies a barrier around your gums to protect the whitening gel from getting on your gums. Then he applies the bleaching compound to your teeth. It takes about fifteen minutes for the activator and light to do its work. A special bleaching lamp is used to activate the whitening gel and speed up the teeth whitening process. Depending, on the staining of your teeth, the process is repeated usually two more times to give you a beautiful pearly smile.

Dr. Maddahi says, “Zoom Advanced Power Plus whitens teeth fast less teeth sensitivity compared to other systems.”

Effective Whitening At Home:
If you’re someone who would prefer to whiten whenever and wherever you want, Dr. Maddahi’s Professional Home Whitening System is for you. He takes exact impressions of your teeth and manufactures his own precise, custom-fitting very comfortable whitening trays. He then provides a professional-grade proprietary gel that is not available in drug stores for safe and effective teeth whitening.

There is a growing demand for teeth whitening. The American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry says the number of teeth whitening and bleaching procedures being done has increased by more than 300 percent over the past five years. That’s huge.

So, if you want to join the growing trend and whiten your teeth, give a call to the Los Angeles cosmetic dentist office of Dr. Kourosh Maddahi in Beverly Hills. You will experience the latest tooth whitening technology and return with beautiful pearly whites.
