Tooth Whitening
Do you have stained teeth that make you feel self-conscious about smiling?
Teeth whitening can be a good solution. Teeth can be stained by foods and drinks, such as tea, coffee and wine. Smoking and certain medications can also cause stains to form. Tooth whitening is a safe procedure that can lighten the colour of your teeth by using a safe dental bleaching agent. Individual results vary and are based on your initial tooth colour and the nature of your tooth staining.
We offer a take-home whitening kit that includes custom-made thin plastic trays that fit over your top and bottom teeth. We supply you with the whitening gel and show you how to place this inside the trays. The trays are worn for two weeks, either a few hours per day or overnight. You then keep the trays so that you can maintain your new white smile with top up treatments!
You must be suitable for whitening, and this will be assessed by your dentist. Please note that existing restorations, such as fillings, crowns, veneers and dentures will not whiten.
