Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is an effective way to brighten and improve the overall aesthetics of your teeth. Teeth whitening gel works by penetrating through the enamel layer to get to the discoloured molecules, hence brightening the entire tooth from within.
In general a Check up and Clean will include;
- Take home kit: A custom clear plastic mould is made, where by the patient places the gel in the moulds at home and wears it for a period of time (30-60 minutes depending on the percentage of active gel). This is a good option for patients who prefer a more budget friendly option, and have the time and compliance to wear the moulds over a 2 week period. The moulds are kept, and extra gel can be purchased in the future as an on going at home treatment.
- In-chair system: Our in-chair system allows for whiter teeth in 1 hour. This option is ideal for patients who are time poor, or do not think they can comply with the take home kit. The gums are protected, and gel is placed on the teeth, within an hour patients will have a whiter and brighter version of their teeth. Both systems achieve good results. At St Ives Smiles we use a system that is safe, least sensitive and works to enhance teeth.
A free 15 minute consultation is offered to patients who are looking to whiten teeth, to ensure the best results are achieved and appropriateness for whitening.
