The types of teeth whitening -
- Laser teeth whitening
- Home tooth whitening
Always seek the advice of a cosmetic dentist if you are interested in having teeth whitening. Cosmetic dentists specialise in teeth whitening and can advise you on what is best for you. Laser teeth whitening can give you whiter teeth in an hour. Home teeth whitening will get you whiter teeth in 1 to 2 weeks. Normally both combined together achieves optimal results. A cosmetic dentist will check your oral health before proceeding with teeth whitening.
Teeth whitening procedure
At the teeth whitening assessment the cosmetic dentist will make sure you are medically ok and your teeth are appropriate for the teeth whitening process.
• The cosmetic dentist will ensure your teeth and health are ok for teeth whitening.
• A dental hygienist will clean your teeth and prepare them for the teeth whitening procedure.
• Some teeth may not respond to normal tooth whitening e.g. teeth that have had root-canal treatment, if this is so the cosmetic dentist may advise internal tooth whitening.
• Laser teeth whitening involves the teeth whitening gel being placed on the teeth and activated by a laser or light. This makes the teeth whitening process rapid, usually 1 hour.
• Home whitening involves tooth whitening gel being placed into custom made trays for about an hour at a time for about 2 weeks.
How long does teeth whitening last?
After the initial teeth whitening, it is advised that you top up with teeth whitening about once a month to maintain that bright smile. Certain foods and drinks like coffee, tea and red wine can discolour your teeth so mountainous is important.
