What is teeth whitening?

Teeth Whitening Procedure, Uncategorized

Teeth whitening is a safe cosmetic procedure that boosts the whiteness of your teeth to give an attractive pearly white smile. The process is very simple and follows three steps, outlined below.

First of all, your teeth are thoroughly cleaned with an activator to prepare teeth for treatment. This removes particles and plaque. Teeth are then coated with a bleaching agent.

Secondly, after applying a mouth guard, a high energy blue halogen light is distributed over the teeth. This is activates the Hydrogen Peroxide molecules without damaging any part of your teeth.

Finally,the exposure to the halogen light will generally last between 6-15 minutes. This means that most consultations can be completed as quickly as 30 minutes to one hour.

However, we strongly recommend a continuous treatment programme every 6 months to maintain your dazzling white smile.

Our teeth whitening aftercare page describes in detail how to best look after your teeth after your teeth whitening treatment. Basically, these are the basic principles of good dental hygiene and a bit of common sense!

  • Maintain a good routine of brushing twice daily, plus flossing

  • Avoid or reduce your intake of drinks that stain your teeth, such as red wine, tea and coffee.
  • Use regular toothpaste, and not “whitening” branded toothpaste which may contribute towards enamel erosion
