Home Whitening

This is the oldest and also the best teeth whitening technique available. It is used by all dentists to produce reliable results with minimum side-effects such as sensitivity. Custom made tight fitting whitening trays are made to seal the whitening gel solution around your teeth and we supply you with whitening gels, containing hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide, to perform this technique. The home teeth whitening method is very cost-effective as the trays can be reused over and over again to help you create and maintain that whiter, radiant smile and the refill syringes are inexpensive to purchase.

Laser Whitening/Power Whitening

We do not find laser whitening to be effective therefore this option has now been discontinued.

Internal Bleaching

This is a method we use to bleach the inside of root canal treated teeth. Typically these teeth can become grey or brownish looking after root canal treatment. By applying a whitening agent inside the tooth, we can reduce or even eliminate the discolouration.

I’M INTERESTED IN WHITENING MY TEETH SHALL I BOOK A CONSULTATION?

We would have to examine you first to check whether you are suitable for treatment. In this visit, we would also advise and discuss with you the whitening options as well.

 

WHICH METHOD IS BETTER AT WHITENING MY TEETH?

Both methods are successful at whitening your teeth, however it will depend on how long you are exposed to the whitening agent.

The HOME BLEACHING method we provide you with more whitening gels therefore you will see a much better result and value for money.

The POWER BLEACHING LASER WHITENING you are only exposed for up to 50 minutes on the chair so to have the same results as the HOME BLEACHING method, you may require to have the procedure repeated 2-5 times for the same result.

 

DOES THE PROCEDURE HURT AND WILL IT DAMAGE MY TEETH?

You may experience some sensitivity from the treatment, however this is normally temporary. The sensitivity will subside a few days after you have stopped.

No the chemicals will not damage your teeth. The pH has been regulated to be safe in the mouth.

 

I SMOKE AND DRINK COFFEE, CAN I STILL WHITEN THEM?

Yes you can! Although the result will be better if you avoid those products.

 

I’VE GOT A FEW FILLINGS AND CROWNS? WILL THEY WHITEN?

Teeth Whitening will NOT whiten your fillings, veneers or crownwork. If you want to whiten them then you may consider replacing your fillings AFTER you have whitened them .

 

I’VE GOT SOME STAINING TO MY TEETH, WILL WHITENING REMOVE THIS?

We would recommend patients to see a hygienist first to remove all the staining. Our hygienist has access to an air abrasion kit, which removes the toughest stains in the tightest of areas.

 

HOW LONG WILL MY TEETH STAY WHITE FOR?

Usually for up to a year and the teeth will gradually go yellow with time. The whitening effect on your teeth is dependent on your overall health, oral hygiene, lifestyle choices, diet, and the type of tooth whitening treatment used. Some tooth whitening treatments have whitening effects for up to three years. Our dentist can give you information on what to expect for duration of whiteness for each type of tooth whitening treatment available. You can purchase refill kits, which is very cost effective to maintaining your teeth.

THE BEAUTICIAN OFFERS TEETH WHITENING. IS IT SAFE?

It is essential that your teeth and gums are assessed before you undergo any whitening procedures. By law, a dentist needs to prescribe the whitening treatment therefore it is illegal for any other person to authorise this procedure. Teeth Whitening carries out by non-dental professionals is illegal and should be reported.

The General Dental Council (GDC) have successfully prosecuted a beautician for conducting Tooth Whitening (April 2011).
