Teeth whitening
Teeth whitening is a simple and stunning way of improving your smile. There are hundreds of toothpastes that are available over the counter to whiten your teeth. However, although they are a good introduction to whiter teeth they are not very powerful and results are only temporary. Gentle and successful teeth whitening can be carried out by your dentist at the clinic or be prescribed by your dentist for you to carry out at home. Both types of treatment are very good and consist of hydrogen peroxide and carbamide peroxide gels that are used to break down stains from the surface of your teeth. At the dental practice these bleaching agents are used at a higher concentration whereas milder gels are used in the home treatment kits. By undergoing teeth whitening you can boost your self-confidence and enjoy a beautiful white smile whilst motivating yourself to look after your teeth more thoroughly to maintain the colour of your teeth.
Composite bonding
If you are looking for a more noticeable transformation then you may wish to speak to your dentist and find out about composite bonding. Composite bonding involves applying a thin layer of composite resin on the surface of your teeth to disguise any stubborn stains or imperfections that are affecting the appearance of your smile.
Composite bonding is non-invasive and you can enjoy the results for up to 5 years if you look after your teeth properly and visit the dentist at regular intervals. Composite bonding is ideal for those who suffer from intrinsic stains that cannot be corrected with teeth whitening procedures, as well as patients who have chips or cracks on the front of their teeth that they are embarrassed by who are looking for a brand-new smile.
Speak to your dentist today and find out which treatments may be most beneficial for you and let your dentist put together an individually tailored treatment plan to help you achieve a smile that you can be proud to show off.
