Tooth Whitening

Everybody loves a bright white smile, and there are a variety of products and procedures available to help you improve the look of yours. Many people are satisfied with the sparkle they get from brushing twice daily with a fluoride-containing toothpaste, cleaning between their teeth once a day using floss and the regular cleanings at your dentist's office. If you decide you would like to go beyond this to make your smile look brighter, you should read this then talk to your dentist about the options that would suit you.

You can take several approaches to whiten your smile:

• In-office (laser) bleaching.
• At-home bleaching.
• Whitening toothpastes.

At-home bleaching

With this option we will construct custom-made close fitting and comfortable trays for you. Bleaching gel is placed within the trays and worn at night for usually around 2 weeks to gradually bleach your teeth.

Whitening toothpastes

Generally, the whitening toothpastes that you can buy from the supermarket and chemist do not contain any peroxide in them (the bleaching agent). Their method of action is abrasive only, that is, the toothpaste contains rough particles which remove the surface stains on your teeth, helping them appear cleaner and brighter. Talk to your dentist before considering whitening toothpastes as for some people they can be too harsh and cause tooth sensitivity.
