Teeth whitening

1. Initial Consultation

Before beginning any whitening treatment, we start with a thorough consultation with one of our experienced dentists. During this consultation, we will assess your oral health and discuss your specific whitening goals. Our team will evaluate the condition of your teeth and gums to ensure that they are healthy enough for whitening. If you have any existing dental issues, such as cavities or gum disease, these will need to be addressed before beginning the whitening process.

We will also take an impression of your teeth, which will be used to create your custom-made whitening trays. The trays are a crucial part of the whitening process as they ensure that the whitening gel is applied evenly and securely.

2. Enlighten Whitening Kit

Once your consultation is complete and your custom trays are ready, we will provide you with your Enlighten teeth whitening kit. The kit contains:

  • Custom-made trays designed to fit your teeth perfectly.
  • Three different strengths of high-quality whitening gel—each gel is pH-stable and specially formulated for optimal results.
  • Instructions on how to use the kit to ensure you achieve the best results.

You will wear the whitening trays with the gel for 14 consecutive nights followed by 7 consecutive days of use, applying the gel as instructed each time. The treatment system gradually lightens your teeth while minimising sensitivity, thanks to the careful formulation of the gels.

3. Achieving Results

The Enlighten system is designed to deliver dramatic results in just 3 weeks. Many patients notice a significant difference in the brightness of their smile after the first few days of treatment. By the end of the 3-week period, you can expect your teeth to be up to 16 shades lighter, depending on your starting shade.

Throughout the process, we encourage you to follow the guidelines provided by your dentist to maximize the treatment’s effectiveness. Enlighten is designed to be a gentle yet powerful whitening treatment, and our team will be there to support you every step of the way.

4. Aftercare And Maintenance

Once your whitening treatment is complete, it’s important to maintain your bright smile with proper oral hygiene and regular touch-ups. Enlighten also offers maintenance kits to help keep your teeth looking bright over time. By following a good oral care routine and avoiding excessive staining foods and drinks (like coffee, tea, or red wine), your results can last for up to six months or longer.

We recommend that you come back for a follow-up appointment at Peter Brash Dental Care to assess the results and discuss any further whitening needs or maintenance options.

Dental Teeth Whitening: A Bright, New Smile with Enlighten

Teeth whitening is one of the most popular cosmetic dental treatments, offering a quick and effective way to improve the appearance of your smile. Over time, teeth can become stained or discoloured due to factors like aging, certain foods and drinks, smoking, or poor oral hygiene. Fortunately, modern teeth whitening treatments can restore the natural brightness of your teeth, leaving you with a more radiant and youthful smile. At Peter Brash Dental Care in Gerrards Cross, we offer a bespoke, results-driven teeth whitening service using Enlighten, a market leader in professional teeth whitening.

What Is Teeth Whitening?

Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental procedure designed to lighten the colour of your teeth and remove stains or discoloration. Professional teeth whitening provides significant and long-lasting outcomes, ensuring that your smile looks as natural and radiant as possible.

The Process

The process of receiving Teeth Whitening treatment at Peter Brash Dental Care is simple, efficient, and highly effective. Here’s what you can expect from start to finish:

Treatments

White fillings

If you don’t want your fillings to affect your smile, white fillings are one solution. Traditional grey fillings are a metal mix… hard wearing, but obvious. White fillings are a resin and ceramic mix available in many shades to ensure a perfect match.

Life Benefits

  • Natural-looking restoration.
  • Improved cosmetic appearance of filled teeth while still being able to bite and chew as usual.
  • Hard-wearing restorative solution.

Our skilled team ensures natural-looking results with minimal discomfort. Using white filling material, we can fix cracks, gaps, staining, and worn teeth without the need for any discomfort. We can use a composite to help with sensitivity and lengthen short teeth invisibly. Visit us today and experience top-quality dental care in a friendly, professional environment.
