"Spoke to the practice yesterday about teeth whitening and potential alignment, booked in to be seen the same day. Teeth whitening moulds were completed by Jose who also gave advice on alignment. Booked in the following day to see Jan the hygienist who is absolutely lovely and performed the most thorough hygiene procedure I’ve ever had! Then back in Monday with Jose to collect my whitening moulds etc. All I came into contact with, from the reception, nurses, and practitioners have been friendly and professional. Highly recommend, a very well run practice with swift and efficient customer service."

Tooth Whitening

Having a whiter, brighter smile is one of the top desires of most patients today. Many people can achieve that goal with tooth whitening, a simple non-invasive treatment that can enhance the beauty of your smile.

The most popular method uses a custom-made tooth whitening tray and prescription strength whitening gel from your dentist that will whiten your teeth dramatically. Since tooth whitening only works on natural teeth, your dentist will evaluate your old crowns or other restorations before making any bleaching recommendations. Replacement of any old restorations will be done after whitening so they will match your new, whiter smile.

Tooth whitening may need occasional touch-ups, especially if you smoke, drink coffee, tea, or wine. With your custom whitening trays, you can do your own touch-ups at home using the whitening gel that you can get from your dentist at your routine cleanings and check-ups.

To get started whitening using custom, take-home trays usually requires two visits to your dentist. At the first appointment, your dentist will examine your teeth and make impressions that are used to make your custom whitening trays.

At your second appointment, the dentist will check the trays for proper fit and make any necessary adjustments. Then you can discuss your desired level of whitening with your dentist who can give you specific instructions on how to use the trays and whitening gel at home to achieve those goals. It is not unusual for some people to experience slight tooth sensitivity during the whitening process. This is normal and will go away shortly after you have stopped bleaching.

Here’s some frequently asked questions about teeth whitening – we hope they help!

  1. Dentist-monitored home bleaching techniques. With these techniques, you use a gel and tray system that looks like a mouth guard.
  2. In-surgery techniques. There are different types of in-surgery techniques: for example light-activated or laser units for ‘power’ whitening.

  1. Home-whitening techniques

The essence of this technique is that you whiten your teeth at home using a tooth whitening gel, which is held next to the teeth by special bleaching trays.

Pre-filled adaptable tray system

With our pre-filled adaptable tray system, you simply place the tray in your mouth, adjust the thin membrane as it adheres to your teeth and wear it for 60 minutes once a day for 10 days. It’s that easy.

This is a prescription-strength formula at an affordable price. This means more effective results, faster.

Customised tray system

First, we take study models of your teeth and then create a customised tray that fits your mouth perfectly. After your trays have been created we will send you home with your custom-fitted trays and whitening gel. This gel contains powerful whitening formulations that you will wear once a day for 10 days.

  1. In-surgery ‘power’ teeth whitening techniques

If you are looking for white teeth, fast, this is the option for you. With this technique, the whitening is carried out at the surgery. A two-hour appointment is required, with the actual tooth whitening procedure taking approximately one hour. Expect teeth whitening to increase your confidence as well as provide you with a brighter smile.

We apply a protective barrier to the gums and lips and then the whitening gel is applied to the teeth. After this, the LumaArch light is directed onto the gel. This is a high energy light that accelerates and intensifies the whitening process. It activates the gel, which then gently removes stains on the teeth.

No. This technique has been used worldwide for many years to whiten literally millions of smiles. There is no structural change to your teeth and it is non-invasive. The majority of the literature and research indicate that dentist-monitored home tooth whitening techniques and the in-surgery ‘power’ whitening systems are effective and safe ways to lighten discoloured teeth.

All types of stains are suitable for tooth whitening, although darker teeth may take longer to whiten.

Very severe stains acquired as a byproduct of taking the antibiotic tetracycline may not respond or may have a limited response to teeth whitening.

Teeth whitening should last for approximately 18 months to three years. The length of time depends on your eating, drinking and smoking habits: tea, coffee, red wine and smoking cause teeth to discolour more.

Virtually everyone wanting to lighten their teeth can benefit from tooth whitening. However, we will determine your suitability because certain techniques may be unsuitable for people who have a history of joint problems, extreme sensitivity to hot and cold food or drink, and people with numerous fracture lines in their teeth.

If you have a gum disease, it should be treated before any tooth whitening procedures are carried out. Patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding should be excluded from bleaching procedures because there is a lack of information concerning possible effects on the baby.

Be safe in your choice of the best teeth whitening option for you and don’t worry – just call us today on 01752 663 239 or email smile@smilecare.uk.com to book an appointment. We’ll help you make the right choice.
