Mythbusters: Teeth Whitening

Sensitive teeth can’t be whitened

If you’re a sufferer of sensitive teeth you might think that you'll be left out of any sort of teeth whitening. Fortunately, that’s not the case. After a consultation with one of our dentists, we can ensure that special desensitizing gel is used to add another layer of protection to your teeth. Our dentists always take the time to explain our procedures, while looking at each patient individually and giving you a reassuring peace of mind.

Whitening does damage to enamel

While anything in excess is a bad idea, teeth whitening products such as toothpaste can actually make a big difference to the staining on your teeth, without damaging your enamel. Our dentists are well versed in the science behind these toothpastes and can offer specific recommendations suited to your teeth. They may not be as effective as our special treatment, but the right ones will make a difference.

The treatment is expensive

With guaranteed results and a quick, simple procedure, our teeth whitening treatment is also incredibly cost-effective. The variety of options we have available are suitable for all budgets, ages and diets. Nobody should be left out of having the smile they’ve always dreamed of.

Teeth whitening is painful

Historically, teeth whitening treatments have been known to give patients an uncomfortable degree of pain, especially when eating or drinking. We’re very happy to say that we’ve left those old procedures back in the past. Enlighten has been tipped as the most progressive teeth whitening practice in the last two decades, leaving patients with long lasting results and incredibly low levels of pain.

Hundreds of people who have come through the doors of our practice have already benefited from the remarkable results that come with our unique cosmetic dentistry. If you’re curious to find out more, have a look through our teeth whitening page. Contact us for an appointment today at 0203 613 3343.
