We are widely known to provide the best and most efficient teeth whitening solutions in the UK. This is because we have come to conclude which products and techniques best work to whiten your teeth. We understand the importance of a dazzling smile, and our team is dedicated to helping you achieve the sparkling teeth you’ve always dreamed of.
The Basics of Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is a relatively simple but transformative cosmetic procedure with significant results. The focus and attention is often on the face during social interactions. So possessing teeth that exude health and whiteness can leave a distinctly positive impression compared to heavily stained teeth.
Considering the potential for substantial results from such a minor procedure, opting for teeth whitening is usually a straightforward decision. However, there are various available teeth whitening options and patients need to make an informed decision.
The primary thing to bear in mind is that if your teeth are damaged, making them appear whiter may offer only a superficial improvement. It may further mask underlying dental issues and potentially cause additional harm. So teeth whitening is no substitute for proper oral hygiene and care.
Furthermore, all teeth whitening methods exclusively target natural teeth. If you have crowns, fillings, composite bonding, or veneers, these would not undergo the same whitening process as your natural teeth and will require separate treatment.
What Are Best Teeth Whitening Options in the UK
There is no one size fits all approach! Each patient has a unique tooth texture and a varied lifestyle. These both affect the options that are available.
See A Hygienist
This may be all that you need! In some cases, achieving a brighter, whiter smile may only involve lifting surface stains. A brief 30-minute treatment session has the potential to deliver the desired results.
We usually recommend that you initially carry out a hygiene appointment before embarking on teeth whitening treatment. This proactive step aids in the removal of surface stains and plaque, ensuring a more uniform and effective whitening outcome. If you elect to book a hygiene appointment, we can offer an optional Advanced Airflow Stain Removal system as part of this session which may help with removing your stains.
Home Teeth Whitening
Here at Pearl Dental Clinic, we are big on digital dentistry. This is why we scan your teeth rather than using impression materials. We will then use this scan to make custom trays tailored to fit your teeth perfectly. These trays enable you to apply a gel containing a bleaching agent. We have 2 of the most premium whitening gels available in the UK: Enlighten and Philips. You will wear your whitening trays at home for a specified duration, for example overnight. You will continue doing this over several days until you achieve your desired result. Typically patients report that the have achieved the shade they desire within 10 days to 2 weeks.
Best In-Clinic Laser Teeth Whitening in the UK
We also offer Philips Zoom laser teeth whitening treatment that we use to lighten patients discoloured enamel inside the dental clinic. Before you carry out this treatment, the dentist will discuss the pros and cons with you and you can come to an informed decision as to whether this treatment is right for you. On a general note, we usually recommend home teeth whitening to our patients, or a combination of home and in-clinic treatment.
More Complex Procedures
In the vast majority of cases, patients do not need more complex procedures. But if you did, you can rest assured that we have the registered Specialists to carry them out.
If a specific tooth is discoloured due to trauma, repeated dental procedures or a root canal treatment, then you may require internal tooth whitening. If you have white or yellow patches within the enamel of a tooth, then you may require microabrasion.
