Of course, this will depend on how many shades you want to lighten your teeth and the current condition of your oral health. But the benefits between the two treatments can quickly become obvious regarding longevity and whiteness, which you can see in the table below.
Regardless of the type of tooth whitening you are recommended, choosing to whiten your teeth with a dentist will produce better results and be more cost-effective at the same time.
Agents like peroxide found in tooth-whitening kits in shops like Boots use lower concentrations, which will not be able actually to alter the shade of the tooth.
For our patients near SE1, Mint Dental offers two types of teeth whitening: in-practice whitening carried out by a professional dentist and at-home teeth whitening kits.
We use special light-accelerated bleaching technology for teeth whitening applications that can give instant, long-lasting results in just one appointment. See laser tooth whitening options.
Teeth tend to lose their whiteness with age, but lifestyle habits like smoking or drinking lots of products like tea, coffee or red wine can wreak havoc on the luminosity of your smile.
Hence, it is often important to seek professional advice from a dentist who can identify which treatment will be best for targeting yellow teeth or tooth discolouration.
The success and recommendation of tooth whitening agents highly depend on the staining present.
For example, regular tooth whitening products cannot effectively target intrinsic staining. In comparison, extrinsic staining refers to superficial stains that affect the surface of the teeth. Sometimes, these stains can be better targeted with dental prophylaxis or hygienist therapies.
It will depend on the type of system you choose. Typically most treatments take two to three weeks to work, or results are instant with laser teeth whitening options.
We can lighten teeth up to 18 shades. However, most cases can expect their teeth to be lighter by 5-7 shades.
The treatment is safe and pain-free – however, as explained below, some sensitivity can be experienced.
The most common side effect of tooth whitening is sensitivity (gingival irritation). Only 25% of patients experience non-sensitive reactions, with the other 75% experiencing varying degrees. Therefore, if you are experiencing severe sensitivity, there are protocols in place to adapt the strength of your treatment.
