Tooth whitening ...is a simple, safe and effective method of lightening the colour of your teeth.

Many of us have darker teeth than we would like. Our teeth darken and discolour with age. Everyday use of tea, coffee, colas, red wine and staining foods can form stains which penetrate deep within the tooth and cannot simply be brushed away.

Professional tooth whitening makes it possible to revers the darkening process and can significantly lighten your smile beyond it's natural shade.

Here at Acomb Dental Practice we offer a choice of proven and predictable ways to whiten your teeth.

Home whitening

We take impressions of your teeth to custom make gel-holding appliances called whitening trays. The trays are lightweight so that you can wear them comfortably while you are awake or asleep. Along with the trays you will receive a whitening fel which is placed inside. This whitening system works by wearing the trays with the gel overnight. Daytime treatments are also available. Results are normally seen within 14 years.

Power Whitening

Also known as laser whitening, this powerful whitening treatment is often featured on TV programmes such as Extreme Makeover and Ten Years Younger and can lighter teeth by up to 8 shades in approximately one hour. It is carried out in the surgery closely supervised by your dental professional.
