Teeth bleaching is not a modern practice. Ancient Romans for example, utilised urine as a product to make and keep their teeth whiter. Thankfully the treatment has moved on since then! Dental bleaching, also known as teeth whitening, is a common procedure in general dentistry but most especially in the field of cosmetic dentistry and is now widely offered in many beauty salon and spas including here at Totally Gorgeous. As a person ages the adult teeth often become darker due to changes in the mineral structure of the tooth, as the enamel becomes less porous. Teeth can also become stained by bacterial pigments,food-goods and tobacco. Teeth whitening restores natural tooth colour and bleaching whitens beyond the natural colour. There are many methods to whiten teeth, such as brushing, bleaching strips, bleaching pen, bleaching gel, laser bleaching, and natural bleaching. Whitening Process - Peroxide Gel v Non-Peroxide Gel Traditionally, whiteners use a carbamide peroxide gel which reacts with water to form hydrogen peroxide. Carbamide peroxide has about a third of the strength of hydrogen peroxide. This means that a 15 percent solution of carbamide peroxide is the rough equivalent of a five percent solution of hydrogen peroxide. The peroxide oxidising agent penetrates the porosities in the rod-like crystal structure of enamel and bleaches stain deposits in the dentin. Power / Laser bleaching uses light energy to accelerate the process of bleaching in a dental surgery or salon. For years now Dentists and Retailers have been using Peroxide based gels to whiten teeth, these gels can be harsh and cause you severe sensitivity. Recent regulations have also banned the use of some of the higher concentrated peroxide gels in the UK. Our non-peroxide whitening gel is much gentler! The Non-Peroxide Whitening Gel uses Sodium Bicarbonate for teeth whitening. Sodium Bicarbonate has been used for many years as a cleaning agent and a popular ingredient for cleaning and whitening teeth. It is also well known for its medicinal and antiseptic properties and is often found in toothpastes and mouth washes. It is the main teeth whitening ingredient in the non peroxide whitening gel and works in much the same way as the banned peroxide gels by penetrating deep in to the tooth to draw out stains. Upon application, the gel immediately starts to break down into activated Oxygen and water. The activated oxygen then works to remove the colour molecules that have stained your teeth, thus making your teeth whiter. The treatment · Your appointment at Totally Gorgeous will start withal 15 minute consultation where we discuss the kind of results you can expect from your teeth whitening treatment. · We will ask you to brush your teeth with a special pumice toothpaste and brush, opening the surface of your teeth for maximum whitening results. · We then match your teeth's current colour to our Vita Shade guide allowing you to see how many grades your teeth have improved after the treatment. · We then start the procedure which is done in 3 separate blocks of 15 minutes. · The dental technician will insert a cheek retractor, opening your mouth to a comfortable position while allowing access to the face of your teeth. · The Beyond Gel is then applied directly to the face of your teeth and all you need to do is lie back and relax for 15 minutes under the Laser Light. · After the first application, we then remove and re-apply the gel twice more, giving you another 15 minutes under the laser light each time. · At the end of this procedure you'll immediately see the difference in your teeth, as well as using the Vita guide to calculate how many shades lighter they are Who cannot have treatment? A typical course of bleaching can produce dramatic improvements in the cosmetic appearance of most stained teeth; however, some stains do not respond to bleaching. Tetracycline staining may require prolonged bleaching, as it takes longer for the bleach to reach the dentin layer. White-spot decalcifications may also be highlighted and become more noticeable directly following a whiting process, but usually become less noticeable, with the other parts of the teeth becoming more white with further applications. Bleaching is not recommended if teeth have decay or infected gums. It is also least effective when the original tooth colour is grayish and may require custom bleaching trays. Bleaching is most effective with yellow discoloured teeth. However, whitener does not work where bonding has been used and neither is it effective on tooth-colour filling. General Questions Question: "How long does it take for teeth whitening?" Answer: Appointments only take 1 hour. Thats right, it only takes us 1 hour to give you amazing white teeth! Question: "I do not want really white teeth, just a natural smile. Can this be done?" Answer: During the treatment we monitor your teeth and we will ensure they do not go lighter than the agreed shade in the consultation. Question: "I have Crowns/Caps/Fillings/Veneers can I have teeth whitening treatment?" Answer: Yes you can! The laser teeth whitening procedure will not whiten crowns, veneers, bridges or fillings however they will be restored to their original colour and will not cause any damage at all. Question: "Does Teeth Whitening work?" Answer: During the consultation we will show you where we will expect you to finish on the VITA shade guide. This way you will be able to visualise how white the teeth will look after the treatment. Question: "How long will the results last?" Answer: For most people, the results are long lasting. Exposure to coffee, tea, tobacco, red wine and certain other stain producing substances will eventually darken teeth again over time. Your teeth should stay noticeably whiter for 18-24 months after having laser teeth whitening treatment. We even offer a quick 15 minute 'top-up' if you would like to keep your brilliant smile!
