Renowned Dr. Michael Miyamoto from Wailuku, Maui, HI, who has worked with people around the area, is a huge proponent of using certified dentists for teeth whitening procedures. According to him, anyone selling teeth whitening products at an incredibly low price could be a scam orthodontist. Luckily, those who have been scammed can still get the treatment they need through the right channels.

The Statistic Brain Research Institute published research in 2017, which showed that the teeth whitening industry is worth over $11 billion dollars. This explains why it attracts so many scam artists. $1.4 billion was spent on over-the-counter teeth whitening products last year alone. This industry is growing as more people put emphasis on having an attractive smile for the purposes of succeeding in the workplace and personal relationships. Despite the popularity of these products, more people are becoming aware of the dangers, as well. Last year, dentists noticed a 29% increase for their in-office bleaching treatments.
Dr. Miyamoto, who has a wealth of experience in dental services and has been serving in Wailuku for more than 30 years, has been alarmed by the number of people that have been tricked into using fake products. “There seems to be a lot of myths that the average American believes about tooth whitening. Those who have gone ahead and taken action based on the false information they’ve received are, sadly, even more.”
The rise of DIY teeth whitening is of particular interest to Dr. Miyamoto. Many of these recipes call for baking soda, lemon, whitening toothpaste brands, activated charcoal and hydrogen peroxide. Unfortunately the wrong proportions of these ingredients could result in disastrous effects, such as destruction of the enamel portion of the teeth, leaking of mercury and silver, erosion of dental cements and damage to fillings.
Dr. Miyamoto is of the strong opinion that only a qualified doctor should be handling your teeth whitening needs. Getting a prescription and having the procedure done by a licensed professional is safe, holistic and better for your dental health. If a dentist concludes you don’t need teeth whitening they can give you another safe option.
“As tempting as a home kit might be, proceed with caution. Cheap can be expensive and is not always the better option. Getting a full dental examination qualifies you for the procedure and makes sure that you overall dental health has been taken into consideration,” warns Dr. Miyamoto.
"Dr Mike Miyamoto is a very knowledgeable, competent and professional dentist, the best in the world!" said Fehima A., one of Dr. Miyamoto's patients. "I have seen dentists all over the world, he's the best you can get! His staff is very friendly and caring!"
Dr. Miyamoto is trained and qualified in several areas of dentistry, including endodontics, pediatric dentistry, prosthetics and cosmetic dentistry. That notwithstanding, he is also active in community service through food drives and free dental clinics. His charity works had him featured on NBC, FOX, CBS and ABC. Dr. Miyamoto serves the residents of Wailuku, Kahului, and others on the island of Maui, HI.
