Teeth whitening: the quickest way to a perfect smile
Our teeth age just like the rest of our body. If you feel that your teeth are not as white and dazzling as they once were, perhaps you need a makeover with our cosmetic Spa Dental Sydney CBD team?
Did you know that teeth whitening at the Spa Dental Sydney CBD can provide a great, quick way towards a smile makeover?
What is teeth whitening?
Teeth whitening involves bleaching your teeth using small amounts of hydrogen peroxide. There are two different ways of achieving the desired effect, either
- in-clinic using customised whitening trays or
- a DIY kit that can be used at home.
For your convenience, we offer both treatments.
Back-to-back sessions are an attractive option for people who cannot wait to show off their new teeth. The results from DIY kits are gradual and can take up to a month, but desirable for people who prefer a home environment to a dentist’s practice.
Can anyone get tooth whitening?
Adults with healthy teeth and gums are usually suitable candidates for this procedure. Poor gums should be treated first before undergoing the procedure. The reason being that the whitening agent can irritate or aggravate gums that are not entirely healthy.
For obvious reasons, young children are prohibited from having their teeth whitened, especially so if all their permanent pearly whites have yet to set in. Whiter teeth have the power to improve your quality of life.
Side-effects may occur and vary from person-to-person, which include temporary pain and discomfort – tenderness might be worse if you already have sensitive teeth.
Is teeth whitening permanent?
Teeth whitening is unfortunately not permanent, but there are ways you can keep your teeth whiter for longer after the treatment.
- Brush and floss your teeth as usual. Using specific brands of teeth whitening toothpaste helps to remove deep pigment stains better than ordinary pastes.
- Brushing twice a day is the minimum requirement. However, you are encouraged to brush more than that, especially if you have consumed food or beverages during the day that stain.
- You should avoid consuming things that are known to stain, which include beverages such as tea, coffee, cola and wine, in excess or at all.
- See your dentist for professional cleaning. Scale and Polishes remove surface stains while dental abrasions help to fight teeth discolouration.
What are the benefits of teeth whitening?
- Improves your smile
Lightening your teeth by a few shades can remove unsightly marks and spots from your teeth, as well as tooth discolouration caused by age or lifelong neglect. Reclaim your smile, your confidence and accentuate your natural beauty with teeth whitening.
- Reverse the years.
A healthy, white smile can help you look younger. Appear youthful, not with invasive cosmetic procedures, but as a result of teeth whitening.
- Enhance your quality of life
An imperfect smile might impact your self-esteem to the point where you avoid friends and isolate yourself.
