Do you have stained teeth that make you feel self-conscious about smiling? Teeth whitening can be a good solution for certain types of tooth staining.
Teeth can be stained by foods, drinks, smoking and certain medications. Teeth whitening is a safe procedure that can lighten the colour of your teeth by using a safe dental bleaching agent. Individual results vary and are based on your initial tooth colour and the nature of your tooth staining.
Here your teeth are whitened in the dental chair. A protective barrier is placed on your gums and lips, and a gel is placed on your teeth. A lamp is positioned over the teeth and this activates the bleaching process. After one hour you can expect your teeth to look a few shades brighter and is a popular choice with many patients who have an important event coming up where they want to look their best.
Here we custom-make a lightweight plastic mouth tray for you that fits snugly over your teeth. You then put a whitening gel inside the tray and wear it at night or for a few hours during the day. Results are normally seen over 2 weeks and your teeth will also appear whiter and brighter.
I am a relatively new patient at the Bromley Dental Practice, but I have been highly impressed with the treatment I have had and the friendliness and professionalism of all the staff. Dr Bashir always takes the time to thoroughly explain treatments required, and I have been exceptionally pleased with the work I have had done - having had on-going issues under my previous dentist that were never resolved. I now have a healthy set of teeth (no pain - which I had suffered with for some time). I also went through the teeth whitening process - which has delivered exceptional results - I would have no hesitation in recommending Bromley Dental Practice.
I was quite nervous about having my teeth whitened but I need not have worried. From the moment I met Zaki and his team I knew it would be fine. I am delighted with the results and would have no hesitation in recommending this practice.
