What dental treatments can I expect from a dentist Stevenage
Many dental practices have dentists who are highly skilled in providing treatments and areas within various areas of dentistry including general treatments, preventative dentistry and cosmetic dentistry.
If you are currently unhappy with your smile, the appearance of your teeth, or you have a gap you would like to close, you may want to consider having a treatment under cosmetic dentistry.
What is cosmetic dentistry?
Cosmetic dentistry is the area of dentistry which focuses on primarily improving the appearance of an individual’s teeth. There are many procedures within cosmetic dentistry which help patients achieve their desired smile whilst also improving their confidence.
Over the years, due to maybe the food and drink we consume or the medication we take, we often find that our teeth start to lose their natural shade and in some cases, may become discoloured. If you can relate to this, you may want to consider having your teeth whitened.
Teeth whitening
Considered to be one of the quickest and safest ways to improve the appearance of a person’s smile, teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental procedure available for those who would like to restore their teeth to their natural shade, or a brighter shade to what they had previously.
Prior to the treatment you will be invited to have a free consultation with a dentist Stevenage to ensure that you are suitable for the treatment, before being informed of the different teeth whitening procedures.
One procedure available for patients who would like to whiten their teeth is called ‘Enlighten Whitening’. This is a professional teeth whitening treatment provided by ‘Enlighten Evolution’ and uses some of the most state of the art materials in order to provide an extremely effective whitening system. ‘Enlighten Whitening’ is known to be the only treatment that can whiten up to 16 shades safely and easily, and there is the option for you to whiten your teeth either at home or professionally by a dentist Stevenage.
If you decide to go for the home whitening system by ‘Enlighten Evolution’ you will be provided with a tooth whitening gel and custom retainers. You will firstly be required to brush and floss your teeth to ensure that they are clean and free from any plaque or debris. If you experience sensitivity, prior to commencing the treatment can also apply desensitiser swabs to your teeth which are also provided as part of the home whitening treatment. Following this, by using a syringe you will apply a small amount of the gel into the bleaching trays and place them on your teeth.
For best results it is recommended that you wear the trays overnight.
