At Advanced Dental Center, Dr. Talis applies her advanced training in cosmetic dentistry and, along with her trained staff, glamorizes smiles with safe, effective whitening techniques. Two-hour visitations kick off with an examination, during which Dr. Talis delves into facial spaces in search of cavities, gum disease, and lecturing wisdom teeth. Four digital x-rays then reveal oral underworlds using less radiation than conventional x-rays, and a consultation lets patients describe their expectations and learn about treatment options. During Zoom! whitening treatments, a skilled technician daubs teeth in a hydrogen-peroxide solution that, when activated with an LED light, coaxes out stains caused by coffee and wine to render teeth up to eight shades whiter. With each syringe jet-mixed during the appointment for optimal freshness, boost whitening uses similar hydrogen-peroxide whitening agents as Zoom!, though does not utilize an LED light or an exclamation point. A gluten-free product, boost whitening also has been proven to lower tooth sensitivity, and improve enamel microhardness.
