I’m thinking of having my teeth whitened. Can I do it myself of should I get it done professionally?
This is a frequently asked question especially with so many off-the-shelf whitening products now available. It is crucial to discuss this with your dentist in order to ensure a safe and effective outcome.
The first thing we will do is to determine if your teeth are suitable for whitening and to discuss which methods are best for you. The professional whitening procedures involve a stronger whitening process than the shop-bought products and therefore more effective.
They also avoid problems than can occur with a DIY shop-bought kit such as patchy-looking teeth and sensitivity. Finally, we can also give you top-up kits for use at home to help keep your teeth sparkling and white
