Teeth Whitening at Melbourne

Teeth whitening is one of the most sought-after procedures for cosmetic dentistry. Food, time and genetics can all have an impact on the colour of teeth. Daily drinks like coffee and tea or common herbs like turmeric and curry can lead to staining. At the same time, many of us are born with teeth that just aren’t pearly white. But, thanks to modern technology, we can brighten your smile a little or a lot, to give you the look you desire.

The teeth whitening process provides a reliable option for our patients who desire a brighter looking smile. At the Dental House, we offer professional whitening in our clinic or can provide you with an easy to apply take-home teeth whitening system. Our team of professionals will do a full exam and evaluation and go over the best options for your needs, to help you get the smile you deserve.

The Process

 

Professional teeth whitening can be done in our office or we can create a whitening system for you to use at home. We begin with an exam to see which procedure is best for you. Next, we clean your teeth and create a whitening solution to fit your needs. Then, we can apply it or create a whitening kit for you to take home, and apply when you are ready. It’s really that simple.

Dental Clinic Teeth Whitening

 

An in-office procedure for professional teeth whitening is the safest and most popular method used by our patients. After we perform a thorough dental exam, we will clean your teeth of any plaque and debris, which will provide a clean palette for the whitening gel. Once the cleaning is complete and your mouth is dry, your dental professional will apply a solution to coat your teeth and allow it to set while you relax. Then your dentist will use the Zoom 2 Chair-side Lamp to activate the solution and expedite the whitening process.
Having the procedure performed here in our clinic allows our professionals to apply a stronger solution while ensuring your gums are protected from irritation. We will oversee the process from cleaning to completion, and ensure we get the results you desire. And a stronger whitening solution means the application time is shorter, giving you a brighter smile in less time.

At Home Teeth Whitening System

 

If your teeth and gums are healthy, you can request an at-home whitening system. After a thorough dental exam to ensure your oral health is sufficient, we will create a solution and a dental tray just for you. You then take it home and apply the gel and insert the tray over your teeth when you are ready. You professional will instruct how long the solution should remain to give you the best results.

Is Teeth Whitening for Everyone?

 

There are many reasons why teeth become discoloured. Genetics or food and other external factors may play a role in the colour of your teeth. Tooth discolouration might be extrinsic or intrinsic, and the reason for discolouration will determine if you are a candidate for teeth whitening.

Extrinsic discolouration takes place when the outer layer of tooth enamel is stained by factors like what you eat or drink. Whereas Intrinsic discolouration takes place when the inner structure, or dentin, of the tooth either turns yellow or darkens to a greyish colour as stain-creating particles penetrate the exterior of the tooth and accumulate inside the enamel.

Teeth discolouration may be extrinsic, intrinsic, or a combination of both. The type of discolouration will be determined during a dental exam, but not all discolouration responds to teeth whitening procedures. Some types of discolouration may be prevented, while some are inherited. Our gentle and caring professionals will determine if teeth whitening is right for you. These are some of the most common causes of yellowing or darkening teeth:

Smoking
Coffee and tea
Chewing tobacco
Regular consumption of curry and turmeric
Medications or medical treatments like chemotherapy
Age
Iron supplements
Inadequate dental hygiene
Inadequate dental hygiene
Overuse of fluoride
Trauma or disease
Determining the reason behind discoloured teeth helps us find the appropriate treatment for each patient. Fortunately, our team of skilled professionals have experience at determining what the cause may be, which allows us to create the best teeth whitening solution for you.

In some cases, certain whitening products may cause tooth sensitivity, gum irritation and can even turn teeth grey. Some products may even damage teeth if they are used incorrectly. At the same time, teeth whitening is not for everyone. For example, women who are pregnant or nursing should hold off, and those with untreated gum disease or tooth decay should avoid the process.

While whitening your teeth at home is an easy option for some, achieving the brightest smile with the least risk takes experience that only a dental professional can provide. When we discover the reasons for your tooth discolouration, we know if whitening is right for you. Proper planning can save you time and money and avoid common complications that may arise from doing it yourself.

Our caring dental professionals will evaluate your individual needs and prepare your teeth for the process, so you get excellent results. We can determine the best strength for your whitening gel and how long it should be used, so you get the surest and safest solution. And you will get a brighter smile with the comfort of knowing a team of professionals is looking out for you.
