Teeth whitening in North Perth
Have you ever thought about whitening your teeth? You probably have…as that is the number 1 question I get asked as a dentist. Whether it is in North Perth or anywhere else, people are now becoming more conscious of a whiter, brighter smile.
Social media has been a driving factor for why people seek out whitening in North Perth. With the advent of social media applications such as Facebook and Instagram, people want whiter and brighter teeth.
The options of teeth whitening in North Perth could vary from having a basic level of whitening done by yourself at home with prescribed dental whitening agents. The reason it’s so important to have whitening prescribed is that the agents used for whitening can be toxic to the gums and mouth tissues if appropriate instructions are not followed or prescribed, especially for whitening agents with the level of concentration that have an effect.
Over-the-counter or easily available whitening products over the internet rarely contain the concentrations required to produce an adequate whitening result. If they do, then they aren’t really meant to be self-administered without the proper advice and “whitening retainers”. Whitening retainers are custom made to ensure that the whitening agent stays in close touch with the teeth to produce an effect.
Without whitening retainers, it is not advisable to use any whitening agent to improve the shade of your teeth. Excessive agent could damage the gums and be ingested. Although not very dangerous, the biggest concern is that the whitening agent won’t have a proper effect without being held in place in close contact with the teeth to be whitened.
If you want teeth whitening, in North Perth, contact us at Enso Dental to find out the best options for whitening your teeth. Remember, there could be more options than just basic whitening to improve the shade and appearance of your teeth.
Also, different type of stain requires differing forms of treatment. For example, nicotine / tannins from the diet often cake onto the surfaces of teeth and require physical cleaning to remove them. No matter how much you use whitening agent on this type of stain, it won’t do much. Alternatively, if you have yellow teeth from tea/coffee consumption over a long period of time, then a simple “scale and clean” of your teeth won’t necessarily improve the shade of your smile. As a result, you will need further assessment.
Finally, teeth that are discoloured in appearance because of aged / failing treatment do not really benefit from whitening procedures. They need proper comprehensive assessment before we embark on a teeth whitening protocol. Thankfully here in North Perth, we have dentists who understand the methods for teeth whitening.
