What Is Teeth Whitening?
Teeth whitening is a minimally invasive cosmetic treatment that helps remove stains and restore the natural colour of your teeth.
A very popular treatment in Hertfordshire, our dentists help individuals whose smiles do not shine as bright as they once did.
This is usually because, over time, foods and drinks like coffee, tea, and red wine can stain teeth, dulling your smile.
A professional teeth whitening treatment uses carefully controlled formulas such as hydrogen peroxide (or carbamide peroxide) to safely lighten the shade of your teeth.
Unlike simple teeth whitening treatment kits that can be purchased from a shop, professional tooth whitening treatment is better for your enamel.
Professional Teeth Whitening Options
At Russell Avenue, we take our role seriously and offer both in-house and at-home whitening kit options to reflect that. We understand that each patient’s lifestyle and goals are different, so we offer a range of professional whitening solutions to suit:
- In-house whitening for faster, instant results using a special light
- Home whitening kit with custom-made trays and whitening gel
- Premium systems like Enlighten teeth whitening and boutique whitening
Each whitening treatment is tailored to help you achieve your desired result and a naturally whiter smile. To determine what is best for you, our team.
The Teeth Whitening Process
The teeth whitening process begins with a consultation with your dentist. We assess your teeth and gums to ensure the treatment is suitable. With this process being very safe, most patients will have a choice between all the options available to them.
Once determined, it’s as simple as undergoing the treatment plan.
For home whitening, you will use whitening trays filled with whitening gel, often worn overnight or for a few hours each day. Most treatments take around two weeks to deliver optimal whitening results.
In contrast, the results can be seen much faster for in-practice treatments.
Ultimately, you will be happy with the results of either process. So, it all comes down to the method that suits you best.
Is Teeth Whitening Safe?
A common concern with all dental treatments, surgical or cosmetic, is whether they are safe. With teeth whitening, when carried out by a professional, the process is safe and effective.
We take steps to:
- Protect your tooth enamel
- Minimise whitening damage
- Reduce sensitivity for those with sensitive teeth
Our focus is always on achieving long-lasting results while maintaining healthy teeth and gums.
What Results Can You Expect?
Teeth whitening results vary depending on your starting shade and lifestyle. Most patients achieve a noticeably brighter smile and improved confidence. However, if you love your coffee or smoke, you may need slightly longer to achieve the results you desire.
Treatments like Enlighten whitening are designed to reach a high level of whiteness while keeping results natural.
Maintain Your Whiter Smile
There are many things you can do to maintain your bright smile.
What we recommend is:
- Limiting foods and drinks that cause staining
- Maintaining good oral health
- Regular dental check-ups
Although it can be tough to say no to the food and drinks you love, it’s not impossible to maintain your whiter smile. With the right care, your professional tooth whitening results can last for a long time.
