Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is a common procedure to improve the appearance of discoloured or stained teeth. The safest, most effective treatment will be suggested by your dental practitioner.
Common causes of teeth discolouration are drinking tea, coffee or red wine; or excessive consumption of foods such as berries, beetroot or smoking cigarettes.
Teeth whitening involves bleaching your teeth to lighten the colour of the enamel. The main ingredients used in tooth whitening products are the chemicals hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide. These chemicals usually come in gel form, which is applied to your teeth.
Teeth whitening is not recommended if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have sensitive teeth, have gum disease or have cracks or holes in your teeth. Teeth whitening may not work if there are untreated dental problems or on teeth with crowns, veneers or fillings.
