Dr. Daniel Charlton may recommend enamel microabrasion to effectively eliminate teeth discolorations and restore the natural radiance of your smile. Tooth discoloration and staining can occur due to various factors, including:
- Tetracycline staining
- Smoking and other tobacco usage
- Dietary habits, such as consuming foods and drinks that stain
- Fluorosis, resulting from excessive fluoride intake
- Tooth decay
- Dental trauma
- Poor dental hygiene
- Antibiotics, infection or other illnesses
What Is Enamel Microabrasion?
Enamel microabrasion offers an alternative to conventional teeth whitening methods and can successfully eliminate even the tiniest of discolorations, enhancing the overall appearance of your teeth. During the enamel microabrasion procedure, our cosmetic dentist will gently treat the stained areas of your teeth with a mild acid. This acid effectively reduces or removes the discoloration, allowing our cosmetic dentist to prepare the tooth for restoration to its original color and shape. The final step involves polishing the tooth, which makes the treated tooth indistinguishable from your other teeth and gives you back a seamless smile.
When Enamel Microabrasion is Recommended
Enamel microabrasion primarily addresses surface stains and discolorations and is typically recommended for minor discolorations. Deeper staining within the tooth’s structure may require more extensive treatments to achieve the desired results.
