A regular check up with your local dentist is essential for healthy teeth. Ask your dentist for a scale and polish when you next visit, this will allow him/her to check and clean your teeth, preferably before booking your appointment. Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental procedure and should involve little pain, although there can be tooth and gum sensitivity up to 48 hours after the treatment.
Crowns, veneers, bridges and any restorative materials not made up of natural tooth enamel will not whiten with this procedure. The Blue LED light (which we use at our clinic) will speed up the whitening process and is gentle. Some dentists use a laser light for teeth-whitening (after which you may be required to take a pain-killer). We use protective eyewear with side shields to protect your eyes from the light.
A cheek retractor will be used to keep your mouth open and allow access to your teeth; before a light cured gingival barrier/solution is applied to protect your gums. We determine and record the colour of your teeth with the Vita shade guide before we start the process. The teeth bleaching gel is applied to top and bottom arches of teeth enamel.
The process above is to produce natural white teeth; if you want Hollywood white teeth like a film star you need Veneers, (speak to your dentist).
No one can guarantee that your teeth will whiten with bleaching. We will give you our honest opinion on the possibilities before any treatment starts.
On completion we provide you with a written guide to maintaining your sparkling white teeth, and a suitable whitening or enamel toothpaste. You are now ready to go out in to the world with more confidence. And don’t forget to SMILE!
