Quiz: What Can You Do To Address A Dull, Discolored Smile?

A dull, discolored smile can make you look unhealthy, it can make you feel self-conscious, it can be surprisingly hard to address if you are relying on store bought whitening agents. Fortunately, your Prairie Village, KS dentist’s office can help you make big changes through professional cosmetic dental care. For many people, a professional whitening kit they take from their dentist can lead to dramatic improvements. The prescription-strength agents used in this kit can remove stains below the surface of your enamel, which can be left behind when you use over the counter products. In cases where something other than enamel stains are affecting your smile, your dentist can talk to you about alternative cosmetic dental treatments, which can lead to great changes.
