Having a ‘whiter brighter smile’ has become a necessity!
Tooth whitening can be a very effective way of lightening the natural colour of your teeth without removing any of the tooth surfaces. It cannot make a complete colour change, but it may lighten the existing shade.
Professional bleaching is the most usual method of tooth whitening.
The total treatment can usually be done within one to two weeks. At you’re your First appointment the dentist will take some impressions of your teeth, which will be sent off to a dental laboratory, they will then make you mouth guards for your top and bottom jaw. Once these have been made your dental team will show you how to use the Tooth whitening material along with your trays, you will then continue this yourself at home.
The effects of whitening are thought to last up to one to two years. However, this will vary from person to person. The effect is less likely to last as long if you smoke, or eat or drink products that can stain your teeth. Ask your dental team for their opinion before you start the treatment.
Some people may find that their teeth become sensitive to cold during or after the treatment. Others may have discomfort in the gums.These symptoms are usually temporary and should disappear within a few days of the treatment finishing.
If any of these side effects continue you should go to your dentist.
This treatment is safe and easy to use with excellent results!
