Why we need teeth whitening treatment
There are many factors that cause our teeth to become stained. Food and drink, lifestyle choices such as smoking, some medicines and even some medical conditions can all cause staining of the teeth. A lot of people also find that as they get older, their teeth lose some of their natural brightness. When carried out by a dentist, teeth whitening treatment is a safe and effective way to get rid of stains and get that brightness back.
How treatment works
Whichever of the teeth whitening treatments available from our Buckinghamshire practice you choose, the principles are the same. Treatment involves the use of special dental bleaching gel to gently remove stains from your teeth, leaving them brighter and whiter. Depending on which option suits you best, this can take between two weeks and one hour – the choice is yours.
Your options
Home whitening
Home teeth whitening involves the use of custom-made whitening trays. Your dentist will take impressions of your teeth to ensure these fit perfectly. All you need to do is put a little whitening gel in the trays and wear them overnight for two weeks.
Power whitening
Power whitening takes place here in our Buckinghamshire practice. Your dentist applies the gel to your teeth and uses a special light to activate it. Hey presto, an hour later you have a brighter, whiter smile.
