Tooth whitening at Dentalspa

We so often find at Dentalspa that more and more people desire whiter teeth. With the influence of celebrity smiles, photo editing and social media many people feel their smile is dull or even yellow compared to others. Tooth whitening is a simple option to help improve the aesthetics of your smile and  therefore create that brighter look and confidence you are after.

Is tooth whitening right for you?

Below are a few factors which you may consider if you wish to undertake whitening;

• Do you have healthy teeth and gums to undertake whitening?
• Have you had any dental treatment (ie. Veneers, crowns, fillings) that may not whiten?
• Do you experience much sensitivity or exposed root surfaces?
• Are you currently pregnant or breastfeeding?
• Can your desired result be achieved with whitening alone?

How to get you started?

With a variety of whitening systems available over the counter, online and provided by a dental practitioner it is often hard to decide which option could be right for you. At Dentalspa a consultation with one of our dental professionals is suggested to determine what system will work best for your individual needs. This can also be a good time to discuss and concerns you may have. At this time
we can determine if there are any factors which may hinder your whitening process and as a result will not achieve the smile you wish for. We provide a variety of options which can be tailored to suit each individual’s whitening needs.

Dentalspa Whitening Packages

We are happy to provide a range of options to our clients.  You can therefore choose from our range of packages available to suit your needs and circumstances. These packages include;

Custom made lab trays whitening package. This is our most popular system where molds are taken of your mouth and constructed by a dental technician. Your initial whitening can be achieved over a period of 7-10 days and reviewed under the care of one of our dental professionals. This process therefore means you can also touch up your own whitening at home as often as you wish.

Dentalspa same day trays whitening package. This system would be best suited for our younger clients or those who only need slight improvement in lightening.  Construction of the whitening tray can be undertaken in chair on the day. This package is tailored to those who only require a few bleach applications to achieve their desired result.

Express whitening. Express Whitening suits those who already have custom made lab trays and are looking at a quick refresh of their smile. The system uses a stronger bleaching solution and must be
performed under the supervision of
our dental professionals for a 30 minute session. We recommend this package for our clients at their hygiene/ preventative care appointments.

In chair whitening package. This process of whitening produces an instant result on the day. It can be performed on the day by one of our dental professionals. It also includes the same day trays in order to touch up at homes as required.
