Maybe you've always wanted a beautiful white /brighter smile or your teeth have yellowed over time or you're not happy with the staining that results from drinking coffee, tea or smoking. It’s normal for teeth to yellow with age. Patients interested in this procedure are invited for an initial consultation to discuss what they would like to achieve.
Teeth whitening simply brightens the natural colour of your teeth boosting confidence. It will whiten the teeth without removing any surface of the tooth. This is done with the use of a laser whitening or power whitening device.
During the procedure your gums are protected and bleach is applied onto your teeth. With the use of the laser, the chemicals are activated which speeds up the reaction of the whitening process. Laser whitening allows patients teeth to become up to 5-6 shades lighter. The procedure will take 1 hour 30 minutes and a home kit with custom trays are available for home use to prolong results.
Whatever your reason for wanting whiter teeth, you're far from alone- and at Muscat Dental Specialists we are here to help. There are three different systems available and our team will guide you to the most suitable for you. The results of teeth whitening can last three years depending on factors including diet, lifestyle and the natural composition of the patient’s teeth. Whitening may be unsuitable for people with extremely sensitive teeth, numerous fracture lines in their teeth, or people with a history of joint problems. Contact us to book a hygiene appointment at Muscat Dental Specialists if teeth whitening is suitable for you- and leave with a gleaming smile.
