TEETH | WHITENING
A brilliant solution to a less than sparkly smile, professional teeth whitening is a very cost-effective way to transform the way you greet the world. Unlike the toothpastes and treatments, you can buy over the counter or online – which are at best, ineffective and at worst, dangerous to use – teeth whitening is safe, pain-free and highly effective.
Our home whitening kits combine custom bleaching trays, which are made in a dental lab using your dental impressions, and prescription of a bleaching gel, which you use at home for around two weeks
Why to do teeth whitening?
The natural whiteness and brightness of teeth fades over time, with them discoloring and staining due to a range of things that we commonly consume, like coffee, tea, red wine and cigarettes. The purpose of teeth whitening is to restore your teeth to their natural, white colour, to once again give you a glossy, healthy smile that you’re proud of.
At my office, I use the latest, most sophisticated, teeth whitening equipment, which means I can guarantee both safety and great, long-lasting results. You can make your existing colour up to eight shades lighter. We’ll show you the different shades and discuss with you exactly how white you want to go.
You can choose between in-clinic teeth whitening, home teeth whitening, or a combination of both. My in-clinic procedure is pain-free, takes just one hour and provides immediate results.
What is the process for in-clinic treatment?
For the in-clinic teeth whitening, a whitening gel is applied to your teeth. This specialist gel works with the laser whitener to gently penetrate the surface layer of your teeth, removing stains and discoloration as it does so.
Once the gel has been applied – and with a gum shield in place, leaving only your teeth exposed –the whitening laser light will be directed inside your mouth. This is generally done in three fifteen to twenty-minute sessions, with cleaning, checking and gel re-application, if necessary, between each of them.
How do I use the at-home whitening kits?
The at-home kits allow you to whiten your teeth from the comfort of your home in a timeframe that suits you. For optimal results, we recommend using it once per day for at least two weeks. The home whitening kit is simple and easy to use, and we’ll give you a full talk through of exactly what steps you need to take.
In short, it involves the dentist taking an impression of your teeth to create a custom mouthguard, which you then apply a whitening gel to and wear overnight while sleeping. These kits are superior to the off-the-shelves ones available in shops, with better, long-lasting results.
Whether whitening your teeth in-clinic or at home, no tooth enamel is removed or damaged during the process, and as the procedure is painless, no injections are required. The results of teeth whitening typically last around one year, but even at that point, your teeth will still be considerably whiter than they were before the treatment.
