Basics of Teeth Whitening

The basics of teeth whitening

Do you know what has caused your teeth to become discoloured?

Identifying the cause is the key to getting your teeth white again and keeping them that way.

Some common causes of teeth discolouration include:

  • Ageing
  • Smoking
  • Eating dark-coloured foods and beverages
  • Gum recession
  • Tooth decay
  • Enamel wear
  • Medication
  • Genetics

In most cases, tooth discolouration is the result of external stains that build up on the surface of the tooth enamel. These stains can be removed with an abrasive agent such as the paste used in a professional dental cleaning. If these stains stay on your teeth for too long, however, they can seep into the pores in your enamel and become intrinsic stains, discolouring your teeth from within.

This intrinsic stain cannot be removed through brushing or polishing your teeth. Instead, it can only be removed by a powerful dental bleach that penetrates the pores in your enamel.

The same is true of teeth that are yellow due to genetics or ageing; they are turning yellow from the inside and can only be lightened with a potent bleaching agent.

Professional Teeth Whitening Treatments In Golders Green, London

Professional teeth whitening treatments in Golders Green

We offer two advanced teeth whitening systems for you to choose from: Zoom! and Enlighten.

Enlighten is a professional take-home whitening system. We will design bespoke whitening trays for you, which you will use at home over the course of two weeks. This is then followed up with an in-surgery session for a final 40-minute treatment.

Enlighten guarantees that your teeth will reach shade B1 at the minimum. This shade is known in dentistry as the lightest natural tooth colour. If you wish to achieve even brighter teeth than that, we will work with you to help you attain your goal.

The in-surgery Zoom! treatment includes the use of bright light which activates the bleaching gel and helps you get dramatic and instant results. The take-home treatments work more gradually, but they give you control over the results you get. Many of our patients enjoy doing both; they have a session of professional bleaching and then take a whitening kit home to use for maintenance and touch-ups.
