Coffee is a popular beverage, and many enjoy that cup or two in the morning each day. The downside to coffee is that it can cause staining on your teeth. There are treatments patients can do at home, or in our office to remove those annoying coffee stains. At Tysons Dental Spa, we offer many cosmetic dental services, and one of our most popular is teeth whitening treatment.

If you are tired of looking at yellow or stained teeth from coffee, then Tysons Dental Spa is here to help. Our team provides a detailed consultation process to evaluate your teeth and mouth, and create a customized treatment that will work for you. We will discuss all of your teeth whitening options, and give you tips and tricks on how to keep your teeth white at home.

Why Does Coffee Stain Our Teeth?

Coffee contains tannins, and this helps give coffee that deep flavor and brown color. Our teeth are filled with many little pores, and the tannins tend to stick to our teeth when we drink coffee. Plaque attracts the tannins and those can easily be cleaned away. Stains on the enamel of your teeth will need to be treated with a tooth whitening procedure.

How Can Teeth Whitening Help?

Teeth whitening procedures can be done in our office or in the comfort of your own home. Our treatments use a high-quality gel to whiten your teeth safely, and remove coffee stains. The peroxides in the gel are able to reach through the enamel and bleach the stain away. Teeth whitening can restore your smile, and give you bright white teeth in just a few treatments. Let our team help you transform your teeth and restore your confidence. To find out more about our in-office or at-home whitening services, we encourage you to schedule a cosmetic consultation.

What Can I Do at Home To Prevent Coffee Stains?

Drink your coffee through a straw to avoid direct contact with your teeth.
Use a whitening toothpaste or mouthwash.
Rinse your mouth out or brush your teeth after drinking coffee.
Avoid charcoal toothpaste as this can damage your enamel.

Chipped or injured teeth are typically considered a dental emergency. At Tysons Dental Spa, we offer many cosmetic services, and have years of experience in cosmetic dentistry. If you have a chipped tooth, you may wonder how quick you can get the tooth fixed. Luckily, there are a few different treatment options to restore your tooth back to normal.

We encourage anyone who has chipped their tooth to contact our office right away. We offer a flexible schedule, and can get you in as soon as possible. In the meantime, we recommend patients can take over the counter pain medication to alleviate any pain. Eat soft foods, and avoid biting down on the damaged tooth.

How Can We Repair a Chipped Tooth?

Depending on the severity of the damage will determine what treatment option is best. If the chip is small a single visit to our office may only be needed. If the tooth is badly damaged, additional treatment and multiple visits to our office may be required.

Bonding or Filling

We can apply a tooth-colored composite resin to help repair your tooth. Bonding is a simple procedure and requires no local anesthesia. To prepare the tooth we file down the area and apply an adhesive. The resin is then applied on top to restore your tooth. Bonding is the color of your natural teeth, and can be formed to match the shape of your surrounding teeth. An ultraviolet light is used to cure or harden the bonding material.

Dental Veneers

Dental veneers can restore teeth that are chipped or broken. Veneers are a thin shell of composite material or porcelain that is placed over your tooth. They are customized to match the color and shape of your teeth, and look natural. The veneers are placed on your teeth using a cement material.

Dental Crown

If your tooth is severely damaged a dental crown may be necessary. We will prepare the tooth by filing away the area so the crown fits snug over your tooth. Crowns protect weak teeth from breaking down further, and look natural in the mouth. Crowns can be customized to match the size, shape, and color of your natural teeth. Typically, crowns are placed after a root canal. If your tooth is damaged down to the pulp area, and there is an infection, a root canal may be necessary to save your tooth.

Looking for a Cosmetic Dentist?

If you are interested in finding a cosmetic dentist that provides quality and affordable dental care you can trust, contact Tysons Dental Spa. Chips in your teeth can be serious, and we encourage you to be seen right away if you have an injury to your tooth.

Dental Veneers are tooth colored shells that are bonded to the front of teeth. Veneers are made out of porcelain or composite resin material, and match the shade of your natural teeth. Patients that have misshapen, stained, uneven, or chipped teeth are good candidates for veneers.

Veneers can also help to close gaps between teeth, or help to create an even smile. Veneers give patients a great solution for those looking for a natural white smile. At Tysons Dental Spa, we provide our patients cosmetic dental treatments in Vienna, VA and we are always helping our patients achieve the perfect bright white smile.

What Are The Risks I Should Be Aware of?

When choosing the best cosmetic treatment at our dental office in Vienna, VA, patients want to look at all of their options, and understand any risks involved. Veneers are permanent, and once they are applied they are not reversible. Patients must be in good oral health for veneers, and free of gum disease. Teeth must also be stable and in good condition. Part of our consultation process is to discuss each patient’s health, as well as examine the condition of their teeth to determine the best cosmetic treatment plan.

If patients suffer from bruxism or grind their teeth, veneers may not be a good choice. The veneers can be damaged from teeth grinding, and this can decrease the life of the veneer. If veneers do crack or chip they typically cannot be fixed, so we do recommend patients take good care of their veneers. Tooth whitening should be done prior to getting your veneers, and this will help to ensure the veneers match the color of your existing teeth. If your veneers are damaged, or the tooth has decay, the tooth may need to be replaced with a crown.

Veneers are a great solution for patients seeking an even white smile. Veneers are durable, and last anywhere between 10-15 years, but they do come with risks. [Insert Doctor Name] recommend patients take good care of their veneers at home to ensure they last, and are kept in great condition.

How Can I Care For My Dental Veneers?

Brush and floss daily to protect your veneers and keep them clean.
Avoid eating any dark foods or drinks that may stain your teeth or veneers.
Avoid biting or chewing on hard foods or objects that can harm the veneers.
Avoid grinding your teeth, as this can cause damage to the veneers.

Whitening is a wonderful way for you to eliminate stains and deep discoloration from your teeth. Unfortunately, many people are used to using in-store products that may or may not provide them the results that they need. If you are considering whitening your teeth using professional methods, there are many options available to you. This can help to keep your teeth looking their best without the issues that come with store-bought items.

Benefits of Whitening

Over time, your teeth can begin to look dulled and yellowed. You might have found that certain foods and drinks stain your teeth, like coffee, tea and soda. You may be a smoker and are unhappy with the overall look of your smile. Other things, like aging and certain medications, can have an impact on the way that your teeth look. This is why it is so important to consider professional whitening.

How Often Should You Whiten Your Teeth?

It is recommended that you only whiten your teeth once every 12 months. This prevents you from whitening too often, which could have a negative effect on your teeth and your oral health. If you whiten your teeth too often, you are slowly wearing away the enamel, which is essential for keeping your teeth healthy. Your smile may begin to look transparent, making them more susceptible to staining. For this reason, it is important to only whiten your teeth once every year or so. Obviously, some people can whiten more than others and others need to wait longer before treatments. This all has to do with the health and current state of your teeth.

Maintaining Your Results

Your results can be maintained by avoiding certain foods and drinks, like coffee, tea and dark soda. If you smoke cigarettes, now is the best time to consider quitting as a way to keep your teeth looking their absolute best. You will love the way that your smile looks and the fact that it is easy to maintain. There are many products that you can use to help eliminate and prevent stains at home. These will help to extend the results you receive from the whitening treatment you had done, which can prevent the need for constant re-treatment.

If you would like to come into our office for whitening, call us today so that we can get you into our spa-like practice as soon as possible.
