TEETH WHITENING
A dazzling smile can truly change your life.
If you are concerned about your smile you may be lacking confidence, which can affect your ability to perform at your best, both in the work place and socially.
Your smile is something people notice instantly. The way you use it attracts people’s attention, with positive and negative results. Over time, through your lifestyle (smoking, drinking coffee or wine, for example) and aging, your teeth can stain and discolour.
To get your smile back to looking its best, you should choose a whitening method that:
• Achieves the longest-lasting results.
• Gives you a natural, sparkling white look.
• Is clinically proven to be safe and effective.
• Is a treatment recommended by a highly trained dentist.
Your teeth can be whitened using a number of different methods, however the similarity between them all is a whitening gel and different gels will contain various levels of peroxide. The gel is applied to your teeth for a specified period, removing the stains and revealing your new whiter smile.
The whitening experience you choose will determine the results you can expect and the time frame to achieve them.
YOUR OPTIONS
At Totally Teeth, we offer two options for your whitening treatment.
Take Home Whitening
For some, being able to whiten their teeth in the comfort of their own home is the perfect solution. At Totally Teeth we offer a whitening package which allows just that.
We create custom-fitted mouthguards that are used as trays in which the whitening gel is placed. You will be provided with the correct amount of gel along with instructions to witness the amazing change to your teeth.
The whitening mouthguards are normally worn for 1-4 hours once a day. This whitening treatment will take around 10 – 12 days to complete with the results gradually changing over that time. We do not recommend wearing them overnight.
In-Chair Britesmile Whitening
This whitening treatment sees a more instant result, with your teeth being whitened by up to 8 to 15 shades in just one hour.
A professional strength, whitening agent, is applied to your teeth. However, with this treatment, a specially designed lamp is also used. The light has been clinically proven safe for tooth enamel as well as skin, gums and other soft tissues. It emits virtually no heat and no harmful UV (ultraviolet) or laser light.
The lamps are uniquely shaped to illuminate and whiten all "smile line" teeth (top and bottom) at the same time, ensuring an even, natural and beautiful result.
The BriteSmile light is used in combination with our patented whitening gel, which has been optimised for patient safety and maximum results. BriteSmile's proprietary gel contains only 15% peroxide and is buffered at a near-neutral pH value, compatible with tooth enamel.
The gel also contains glycerine and highly purified water to prevent tooth dehydration and to further ensure safety. The gel is specifically engineered to respond to the wavelengths of the light system.
Totally Teeth tips for a whiter smile
1. Smoking is not only bad for your health but will stain your teeth.
2. Limit your intake of red wine and coffee as these are both strongly associated with staining, as are foods such as liquorice.
3. Regular visits to Totally Teeth will allow your dentist to clean your teeth thoroughly, reducing the amount of staining on a regular basis.
4. Discuss your whitening options with one of the experienced Totally Teeth team members.
