When Teeth Whitening May Be Desirable

A number of factors can damage the enamel on our teeth and cause the darker dentin beneath the surface to show through more readily. Some people’s dentin is naturally darker in any case, while for others, a combination of the enamel becoming thinner and dentin darkening as we age can also result in teeth acquiring a stained or discoloured look. Frequently drinking dark liquids such as red wine, coffee, tea and colas can also cause discolouration.

Where such staining is on the surface of the teeth (called extrinsic staining), tooth whitening is a highly effective way of brightening up your smile. This is a procedure we carry out frequently for many of our clients.

How The Whitening Process Works

Before treatment, we’ll make sure any necessary dental work, such as fillings, is carried out and also give your teeth a professional clean. This removes any substances like bacteria or food that may be contributing towards the staining. Then, the whitening treatment can begin.

The most common type of whitening is done with a gel that contains hydrogen peroxide. Having protected the gum area surrounding the teeth, the gel is applied and activated by a light or laser that speeds up the whitening process. It may take between one and three appointments, each between half an hour and 90 minutes, to achieve the degree of whiteness you would like.

There are also home whitening kits with a milder form of gel if you wish to carry out the procedure in the comfort of your own home. If you’d like whiter teeth, please speak to a team member today to make an appointment for a consultation with Sedgley Dental Care.
