Tooth whitening, also known as ‘bleaching’, is a highly popular and effective method of lightening the natural colour of your teeth whilst simultaneously removing everyday stains caused by diet and lifestyle, especially through habits such as smoking or drinking red wine.
There is a vast range of products available that claim to whiten teeth, such as whitening toothpastes and mouthwashes. Most of these do indeed help to remove plaque and superficial surface stains, but if used alone, they cannot provide effective whitening results. The only way to get effective whitening is to have professional whitening treatment under the supervision of your dentist or qualified hygienist.
The key difference is that the treatments we offer at Parmar Dental contain the whitening agent carbamide peroxide at a concentration that is not available in over-the-counter products and which can only be prescribed by a dental professional. Carbamide peroxide is totally safe, and treatment is simple, effective and usually quite painless, with no unpleasant drills or injections.
At Parmar Dental, your dentist will discuss all aspects of the teeth whitening process during your cosmetic consultation appointment. We believe it is important for our patients to have a full understanding of their whitening options to ensure their complete satisfaction.
