Tooth discoloration can affect the appearance of your smile and impact your confidence. If you have stubborn stains that do not respond to traditional whitening treatments, micro abrasion may be a suitable solution. Dr. Nathan Gray and Dr. Mechay R. Gray offer micro abrasion to gently remove surface stains and restore the natural brightness of your teeth.
A Safe and Effective Stain Removal Method
Micro abrasion is a minimally invasive cosmetic treatment that improves the appearance of discolored teeth by removing a thin layer of enamel. It is effective for removing heavy stains, including intrinsic stains caused by factors such as excessive fluoride exposure, as well as superficial discolorations, white spots and developmental defects that traditional whitening treatments cannot address. Many patients choose micro abrasion because it is:
- A conservative approach that preserves natural tooth structure
- Effective for removing deep-set stains that whitening treatments cannot address
- A quick procedure that provides immediate results
- Safe and gentle on enamel when performed by an experienced provider
- A long-lasting solution with proper oral hygiene and care
How Micro abrasion Enhances Your Smile
The micro abrasion process involves applying a mild abrasive and acidic solution to the affected teeth. This combination works to remove stains and smooth the enamel surface, creating a brighter and more uniform appearance. The microabrasion process uses a specially formulated polishing paste to remove stains and superficial defects in the enamel surface, creating a smoother, brighter and more uniform appearance.
This technique is ideal for patients looking for a non-bleaching option to enhance their smile. Unlike traditional whitening treatments that rely on chemical agents, micro abrasion physically removes stains, making it an excellent alternative for individuals with sensitivity concerns. With proper care, the results of micro abrasion can be long-lasting, helping you maintain a healthier, more vibrant smile.
