"There are dozens of over-the-counter whitening options available to you, and they come in a variety of modalities including toothpastes, rinses and whitening strips. While it may be tempting to pick up one of these treatments at your local drug store, the reality is that you will receive a far inferior product compared with the professional-grade teeth whitening systems used by your dentist." While over the counter tooth whitening products can lighten your teeth, your dentist in Fort Lauderdale uses higher concentrations of bleaching agents that can brighten your teeth between 5 and 8 shades in a single application. "Just as prescription medications dispensed by your doctor are stronger and more effective than over-the-counter alternatives, the whitening systems used by dentists are much more effective than the products you can buy in a store. The primary reason for this is that professional-grade whitening systems use much stronger bleaching gels and whitening agents than over-the-counter products. This allows you to achieve much brighter results in significantly less time. Often, you can brighten your smile 8-10 shades in one office visit."
