Teeth Whitening
Over time our teeth tend to become discolored or stained. This may be from smoking, coffee, tea or other staining foods. However, a beautiful smile could be closer than you think. We offer a safe, inexpensive solution to an unsightly smile. Whitening your teeth is a very simple non-invasive procedure that can be completed in a relatively short period of time.
Procedure
The first step is to ensure the teeth are as clean and stain-free as possible. Quite often, just the polishing out of tenacious stains can make a world of difference.
Impressions of your upper and lower teeth will be taken to make custom bleaching trays. The trays will fit onto your teeth perfectly to hold the whitening gel closely against your teeth.
Home whitening can be done either by wearing the trays and gel overnight, or for an hour or two during waking hours. Within 7-10 days, you will see a significant improvement in the colour of your teeth. You will notice your smile will look brighter and younger. Full whitening usually takes two - three weeks.
We will take before and after photos so that you will be able to compare the transformation.
Bleaching only works on natural teeth and may not be effective in a very few cases. We will inform you as to the potential whitening for your specific situation.
We recommend a booster after about 18 months - 2 years to keep up the brightness level. You can do this yourself at home with your trays.
