Teeth Whitening At Your Plastic Surgery Clinic: A $300M Industry, And Growing
Why not add teeth whitening? According to the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, 99.9% of adults believe that a good smile is a prerequisite to a good social life. 96% of adults believe that a great smile is essential for making a good impression on the opposite sex. 74% believe that a less than perfect smile will hurt you career.
Over the last 5 years, dentists report that the number of their patients seeking bleaching treatments has actually tripled. No surprise that professional teeth whitening has grown to become a $300 million industry!
Professional teeth bleaching-using professional strength bleaching agents in combination with custom-fit whitening trays-is one of the simplest, safest and most profitable procedures you could provide.
The American Dental Association agrees:
“Dentist-prescribed, home-applied bleaching from a reputable manufacturer for short-term treatment duration is safe and recognized as most effective in lightening the color of teeth.” Many laser therapies have appeared over the past few years. Periodic use of professional strength whitening gel continues to reign as the most effective treatment of all. But, in a practice that offers laser whitening treatments, the dramatic results patients experience is very short lived. Laser treatments may appear to produce a dramatic improvement, but once the teeth become re-hydrated, much of the improvement disappears.
