All About 7-Hour Whitening-
Discoloration can be caused by years of consuming highly colored foods or
beverages, by smoking, or by practicing poor oral hygiene. Aging itself can
cause discoloration when the enamel begins to thin or when stains from all of
the above accumulate.
Fast and predictable At-Home 30% (7-hour) strength supports dual arch whitening,
and can be completed in just 7 hours! In contrast, other at-home whiteners take
10-28 days (per arch) -- for a total of up to 56 days! With 30%. wear time is
reduced to only two 20 to 30-minute treatments a day, for just 7 days.
Professional whitening has critically key advantages starting with speed,
safety, and effectiveness. Over-the-counter products work for some people, but
it's a matter of cost, time, safety, supervision, and compliance.
Your smile is one of the first things people notice about you ---and it's a huge
part of what makes (or breaks) your first impression.
The color of your teeth can greatly influence perceptions about your age,
health, beauty or hygiene.
Whiter teeth can simply improve the appearance of your smile and overall
attractiveness.

What is NTI Plus and How Does It Help Migraine Headaches?
Wearing the NTI Plus keeps the back teeth from meeting which prevents
jaw-clenching, the intense muscle contractions of the scalp and jaw that
migraine and chronic headache sufferers experience during sleep. This intense
muscle activity usually occurs without the sufferer's knowledge, and has been
linked to increased severity and frequency of headache and migraine pain.
Wearing the NTI Plus also helps protect your teeth from damage caused by bruxing
and clenching... an activity that can wear your teeth down or cause chips and
cracks.
Ask you dentist about the NTI Plus.
What is Periodontal Disease?
Gum disease or periodontal disease or gingivitis as it is also called, is the
number one cause of tooth loss today. Bacteria and plaque attach to the teeth
and produce disease. This disease causes the bone around the teeth to dissolve.
The teeth become loose and eventually are lost.
Anyone is susceptible to periodontal disease. The beginning of periodontal
disease is plaque which forms on the teeth daily. If not removed daily, it will
form a hard deposit called calculus,
which can increase the risks of, and or create more severe
problems. Puffy and bleeding gums are signs of present
infection. In severe cases, there may not be bleeding.
Routine visits to the dentist are the best way to prevent gum disease.
Identifying periodontal disease in the early stages and treatment by the dental
team is necessary. It does not go away by itself or with increased home care.
The only way to remove calculus deep on the root surface is by professional
cleanings. Once you have ahd a periodontal problem, you will be more susceptible
to frequent problems. Seeing your dentist for regular cleanings, on an advised
schedule, is the best way to control periodontal disease.
What is the Link Between Periodontal Disease and Your Health?
Oral bacteria found in patients with periodontal disease can enter into the
bloodstream and can travel throughout the body. Inflammation of various body
tissues may occur. The body's immune system response can be compromised, and
resulting bacterial colonies can
increase the risks of, and or create more serious problems with:
□ Stroke
□ Heart Disease
□ Infective Endocarditis
□ Diabetes
