A common concern with people today is the colour of their teeth.
The colour of teeth can be significantly affected by social and dietary habits such as smoking, caffeine, tea, red wine and antibiotics during childhood. Teeth whitening or bleaching is a safe, fast and effective way to lighten and brighten your teeth. It is one of the most popular and simple cosmetic dental procedures performed today.
We use a “take home” bleaching kit with dentist fabricated custom trays. This method has been proven to be safe and pain free with excellent long term results. For optimum results it is necessary to have a professional scale and clean prior to the whitening procedure.
An appointment is required to take impressions of your teeth to have the custom trays made, instructions are provided on how to use the whitening gel and it is then advised to use the trays for 7-10 days for 2 hours each day. They may be worn overnight which is very comfortable as they are very thin and closely adapt to your teeth. In the future you can “top up” your whitening by wearing the trays for a couple of days. Generally it is not necessary to perform the entire whitening procedure again.
Teeth whitening may be the quickest most effective way to enhance your appearance.
