Teeth whitening is a popular cosmetic dental treatment, a way of brightening up your smile which is both fast and reliable. At Buckinghamshire dental practice Garden View, we offer two options for whitening treatment, and your dentist will help you to decide which is the best one for you.

Summer is – almost – here and many people’s thoughts are turning to summer holidays. You may be surprised to discover that the vast majority of adults in the UK feel uncomfortable about smiling in photographs because they are ashamed or embarrassed about their teeth.

At Garden View Dental Care in Buckinghamshire we believe that everybody deserves a smile to be proud of. When it is carried out by a qualified dentist, teeth whitening provide a reliable, effective, and – most importantly – safe way to boost your smile’s appearance. Depending on which treatment option you choose, teeth whitening takes between two weeks and just one hour to complete – the perfect preparation to ensure that all your smiles are genuine in your holiday snaps.

The importance of consulting a dentist

A dentist must always be consulted for teeth whitening treatment. At our Buckinghamshire practice we are aware that there are many products on the market that claim to give you whiter teeth, but without consulting with a qualified professional you have no way of knowing if these products are effective, let alone safe.

In the best case scenario these treatments simply won’t work, whilst in the worst cases they can actually damage your mouth. The products used at Garden View in Buckinghamshire are tried, tested, and safe, and have proven to be highly effective.

As with any cosmetic procedure, teeth whitening should be carried out on a healthy mouth. When you come into our Buckinghamshire practice for a consultation, your clinician will assess your oral health and provide any treatment required before carrying out whitening.
