Overland Park, KS, dentist helps patients improve their smiles with KoR whitening

Have you ever asked yourself what is the first thing that people notice about you? Is it your charming personality? Your great taste in shoes? Your sense of humor? If you are like most people, you believe that your smile is the first thing that gets people’s attention. That is why so many people in Overland Park, KS, are turning to Dr. Shane Nelson for KoR teeth whitening solutions to improve the appearance of their smile and remove years or decades of stains and discoloration.

Can teeth whitening improve my appearance?

While we frequently see photos of people with a sparkling white smile, the simple fact is that achieving a bright smile is no easy feat. From your morning coffee habit to your love of red wine and dark pasta sauce, there are plenty of ways that your smile can be compromised. But now, you have options for whitening your teeth and bringing back your happy and healthy smile.

What is KoR teeth whitening?

The KoR teeth whitening treatment has been rated the most effective teeth whitening system available. Unlike traditional in-office teeth whitening, which can deliver less than desired results or even damage the tooth’s enamel and gums, KoR is safe and effective. The treatment is performed at home but under the guidance of Dr. Nelson and his dental team to ensure you get the results you want.

How does KoR teeth whitening work?

The procedure begins just after a professional teeth cleaning when the mouth is free from any extra food particles or bacteria.  At home, patients wear a custom-fit tray filled with the professional whitening solution as often and for as long as prescribed by Dr. Nelson. Some patients may opt to only wear the trays for a short period, while reading, working, or performing light household activities.  Other patients who may be able to tolerate wearing the trays overnight.

Benefits of KoR whitening treatment

While patients have many teeth whitening options available, KoR offers several clear advantages:

• Safe: Many teeth whitening solutions can cause patients to experience sensitivity following the treatment. However, patients who use KoR whitening treatment experience less sensitivity while achieving the results they want.
• Permanent results: Once you achieve the desired level of whitening, patients can expect to keep their sparkling smiles as long as they take proper care of their teeth.
• Natural appearance: A brighter smile is great, however, if it goes too far, it can look unnatural. The KoR system allows you to keep using the product until you reach the desired level of whitening.

Keeping your smile white

Once you have achieved your desired results, you will want to keep your smile sparkling. Dr. Nelson recommends that patients avoid drinking dark beverages like coffee, tea, and red wine; ensure proper brushing and flossing, and kick habits like smoking or chewing tobacco, which can stain teeth. Additionally, twice-annual checkups are critical to ensuring the health and appearance of your smile.
