Teeth Whitening in Croydon
A smile that glows and glitters!
Teeth Whitening—an Overview
Whiter teeth have been the biggest beauty hack for centuries. Pearly white, well-aligned healthy teeth are the biggest asset for your smile and aesthetics. Teeth whitening in Croydon can reverse the dullness of your stained teeth to restore your smile to its full brilliance. At Smile 4 U, we specialise in safe and effective teeth-whitening treatments tailored to your individual needs.
What Is Teeth Whitening?
Teeth whitening, scientifically called dental bleaching, is a cosmetic dental procedure designed to remove stains and discolouration from the surface of your teeth, leaving them visibly whiter and brighter. Unlike over-the-counter products, the best teeth whitening strives to offer long-lasting, visible results while being safe for your teeth and gums.
Do You Need Teeth Whitening?
Teeth whitening is suitable for most adults and teenagers who want whiter teeth. It is particularly effective for:
- Surface stains that are caused by coffee, tea, wine, smoking, or certain foods.
- Yellowing or dullness of the teeth from ageing.
- Mild fluorosis (white or brown spots on teeth).
You must remember that it is essential to address any dental issues, such as cavities or gum disease, before undergoing teeth whitening methods. Deep-seated stains caused by injury or certain medications may require alternative treatments, like dental veneers and dental crowns.
Types of Teeth Whitening?
At Smile 4 U, we offer a range of teeth-whitening options to suit your lifestyle and goals:
- In-Office Whitening: Professional whitening treatment is typically completed in a single visit. We use specialised gels to protect your gums and minimise tooth sensitivity during the procedure. A professional-grade whitening gel and a specialised light or laser is used to eliminate the stains.
- Take-Home Whitening Kits: For those who prefer the convenience of whitening their teeth in the comfort of their own home, we offer custom-designed take-home kits. The kit includes a specially formulated whitening gel, which is safe and effective for at-home use.
- Combination Whitening: For the ultimate whitening experience, we recommend a combination approach that blends the best of both in-office and at-home treatments: Begin with a professional whitening session at our clinic for instant, noticeable results and then take home a custom whitening kit to continue brightening your smile over the following weeks.
We regularly provide teeth whitening treatments to patients from Croydon, Addiscombe, Shirley, West Wickham, Thornton Heath, and Addington.
