Like teeth cleaning, whitening is a relatively discomfort-free process. Some people are sensitive to the whitening agents used, but otherwise, itโs an easy procedure that we can do. At-home teeth whitening kits involve a lot of extra time and effort. Teeth whitening is a quick and effective way to get shades lighter, reducing everyday stains caused by tea, coffee, red wine and smoking โ enhancing your smile, and making you look and feel younger.
With whitening, you can expect an improvement of three to four shades, depending on the tooth condition, the treatment method you choose and your result preference. Itโs important to remember that teeth with a thinner enamel network respond less favourably to teeth whitening. So, before starting a teeth whitening procedure, let us advise you if you are an ideal candidate.
