If you’re looking for a quick way to get rid of yellow teeth, many dental treatments and options are available to you. For example, many advertisements say using charcoal powder in your toothpaste will give your teeth an instant whitening effect. Old wives tales will have you using baking soda or lemon juice to brush your teeth – we’d strongly advise against this!
At Time Dental Practice, we pride ourselves in offering a wide range of treatments to patients in the Camberley & Godalming areas. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or a nervous patient, our professional dental team are on hand to deliver quality treatments for your overall dental health.
It is not uncommon for teeth to have a yellow tinge. In fact, the most common shade of teeth is A3, which does have a natural creamy colour. Your dentist or dental hygienist can help improve yellowing caused by surface stains such as tea, coffee, or red wine. Treatment plans for surface staining may include a thorough ultrasonic cleaning and a good polish. It could also include whitening treatments. Teeth-whitening treatments are a form of cosmetic dentistry. They should always be prescribed by a registered dental professional for quality treatment.
With so many options out there, it can be challenging to determine which teeth whitening product will work best for your dental care routine. Whitening strips, toothpaste, mouthwash, and other treatments are designed for different purposes. For example, mouthwash tends to be effective for washing away debris and freshening breath after a meal, but they don’t contain whitening agents. However, if you want whiter teeth fast, patients in Camberley & Godalming should visit Time Dental for an initial consultation. We don’t recommend using some whitening products as they can be overly abrasive or harmful for natural teeth and gums.
It’s a common misconception that teeth whitening takes a long time. In reality, you can get noticeable results after just one or two treatments, either at home or in the surgery. Teeth whitening is a safe dental procedure and relatively inexpensive, requiring only 2 short visits to Time Dental in Farnham.
We generally recommend professional a home-whitening kit. A professional teeth whitening procedure involves using whitening trays that have been custom made and filled with hydrogen peroxide whitening gel. The trays must be worn for at least one hour each day. The process of professional teeth whitening usually takes between 10 and 14 days. Still, if there is heavy staining, it may take longer.
Other than the benefit of increased confidence in your smile – especially on special occasions. The advantage of professional home-whitening is that you have complete control over your desired tooth shade.
Whitening your teeth is a straightforward, safe, and effective procedure provided by your dentist; however, some patients suffer from sensitivity. Your teeth may be sensitive for a short time, but it will wear off after a few hours. They can be remedied by rubbing sensitive toothpaste over the affected area.
