Teeth Whitening the debate goes on and on

Teeth whitening is something that every one talks about and everyone loves to have whiter teeth and this seen as a sign in our society of a more attractive look and a more youthful look.

I often get asked

what types of tooth whitening are there ?

well there are over a few hundred ways to whiten your teeth
of the most popular are

1, The home whitening system or tray system as it is often known as this consists of having a tray made which fits over your teeth and then this is worn with gel inside the tray and this gradually whitens your teeth over a period of weeks

2,The surgery whitening or laser whitening or instant whitening this usually involves treatment by a dentist in a treatment room and the teeth are whitened over a short period of time and in most cases you can achieve upto four or five shade changes depending upon the system used and the type of technique used.

the most commonly asked questions people ask are

Is it safe? – yes if done properly by a dentist then nothing to worry about

Will it last – yes usually for up to four to five years at which point you may need a top up although results can vary depending upon your diet

How much does it cost? This tends to vary depending upon the dentist I would usually check out prices on websites and go with the one you most feel comfortable with

  1. Every once in a great while I find a good blog. When I searched on “cost of tooth whitening” and got to your blog I was pleasantly surprised. Obviously some of the commentators are kind of lame (they are on every blog), however, in general the information on cost of tooth whitening is good stuff.
