Teeth whitening

 As a qualified and registered dentist, I can safely and legally provide home teeth whitening services for you.

​

More and more people are wanting whiter,brighter, cleaner looking teeth and this can be achieved with teeth whitening or bleaching your teeth.

​

                            What is involved ?

​

  After a thorough consultation to see if you are a suitable candidate for teeth whitening,I will take impressions (moulds) of your teeth,in order to have a custom made bleaching tray constructed at a dental laboratory.

​

On the next appointment, i will give you your bleaching trays along with instructions on how to apply the bleaching gel,for a specified period of time each day,until your goal is achieved.

​

​

                           Is teeth whitening permanent ?

​

  Teeth whitening isnt permanent.It can last from a few months to several years-it varies from person to person.

The whitening effect won't last as long if you regularly smoke,or drink red wine,tea or coffee,which can all stain your teeth.

​

                       Will teeth whitening work on false teeth ?

​

NO, teeth whitening does not work on dentures,crowns,fillings or veneers.

​

​

                    What are the risks of teeth whitening ?

​

No matter which system used,there is a chance that your gums and teeth may be sensitive to the chemicals used,particularly if you already have sensitive teeth to begin with.

If you are worried about this , I can provide you with a strengthening mousse which can be applied into your bleaching trays,and worn for an hour daily for a week or two prior to starting the teeth whitening gels.

​

There is also a chance of burns to the gums, but to minimise this risk, the tray is custom made to fit your teeth precisely,with specific design features to ensure a tiny reservoir of active gel will sit exactly where it should.
