What Causes Tooth Staining?
No matter how careful you are about your dental health, your teeth can lose their shine for a variety of reasons. Substances such as wine, coffee, tobacco and even certain medications can cause the enamel to become stained over time.
Extrinsic Staining
Extrinsic stains appear on the outside surface of a tooth. These stains are commonly caused by tea, coffee, tobacco and red wine. This type of staining can be reduced with regular brushing or a professional teeth whitening procedure.
Intrinsic Staining
Intrinsic staining occurs on the inside of a tooth and is often caused by certain medications, blood on the inside caused by traumatic injury or root canal treatment.
Types Of Cosmetic Teeth Whitening Procedures
In-Chair Teeth Whitening
At Ipswich Family Dental, we provide highly effective teeth whitening services that deliver results in just one visit. Our dentists use safe and long-lasting whitening agents that lighten the shade of your teeth while keeping them completely protected.
Take-home Teeth Whitening Kits
A take-home teeth whitening kit provided by a dental expert contains custom made plastic trays and a specific amount of whitening gel to be placed inside the tray before use. Although these kits take longer to achieve the desired whitening results, they are convenient, with trays that fit perfectly over your teeth, and do not require patients to repeatedly visit the dentist.
Bleaching the Inside of a Tooth
For teeth that are severely stained due to injury or root canal treatment, dentists use a whitening agent that is placed in the middle of the tooth where the dental nerve once was. The agent is left in the tooth for a few days before the cavity is cleaned out and repaired using a tooth filling.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. How Long Do Teeth Whitening Results Last?
The results of cosmetic teeth whitening can stick around for anywhere between six months to three years; it all comes down to how well you look after your smile. Love your coffee, red wine or the occasional smoke? They can speed up staining, dulling your fresh new look. The good news? With regular touch-ups and solid oral hygiene, you can keep your teeth looking bright for longer. A little care goes a long way when it comes to maintaining that pearly-white glow.
2. Is Professional Teeth Whitening Safe?
When performed by a qualified teeth whitening dentist, professional whitening is safe and effective. Some patients may experience mild sensitivity or gum irritation, but these side effects are temporary. Over-the-counter whitening products, when used incorrectly, may cause uneven results or enamel damage. Consulting a dentist ensures a safer and more effective teeth whitening dental care experience.
3. Who is a Good Candidate for Teeth Whitening?
If your teeth and gums are in good shape, dental teeth whitening could be just the boost your smile needs. But if you’ve got cavities, gum issues or stubborn stains, an alternative treatment might be a better fit. A quick consult with Ipswich Family Dental will help you find the best option for a brighter, healthier smile!
