A blushing bride-to-be from York has won a teeth-whitening treatment at York’s Diamond Teeth Whitening clinic as part of an all-inclusive wedding prize courtesy of local paper The Press. 

Michelle Stannard and her fiance Adrian Elliott beat twenty other couples to win their dream wedding, which will take place in April 2012. The prize not only included a teeth-whitening session, but also covered the rest of the details too – venue, catering, clothing, flowers, and anything else you can think of. 

Thanks to a one-hour treatment with Diamond dentist Alex Keogh, Michelle will be able to dazzle her wedding guests with a brighter, whiter smile. She will also return for an additional session before the big day, to make sure her teeth really sparkle. The teeth whitening procedure uses a special gel, which is activated by a blue curing light, to break down any stains or discolouration on the teeth, leaving them looking polished and natural. Typically, these treatments are very successful, but can be expensive when provided by top industry surgeries.

Tooth whitener Alex was more than happy to give Michelle a new smile for her special day, saying; ‘Your wedding photos are the ones you keep forever, so it’s a one off chance to have a white smile in your wedding photos. Michelle’s teeth were very white to start with, so she went for four or five shades difference’.
