See Your Teeth Sparkle This Season With Sensational Teeth Whitening

Friday, December 4th, 2015

3884462_blogIf you dream of sparkly white teeth this Christmas, you’ve come to the right place! At City Dental Leeds, we offer amazing home whitening treatment, which will guarantee a gorgeous smile for the festive season.

Home whitening couldn’t be simpler and we also include a scale and polish session with our experienced hygienists.

What does treatment involve?

Home whitening treatment is very simple and it’s really convenient, so you won’t have to worry about fitting it into your busy social schedule in the run up to Christmas Day. Before you start treatment, we invite you to come in for an informal consultation. We will check your teeth and gums and then create moulds to be used to make your bespoke whitening trays. When your trays are ready, you can take them home and start your treatment. The trays are similar to mouth guards and contain whitening agent. This lightens the shade of your enamel when it comes into contact with the teeth, giving you a lighter, brighter smile.

You will probably notice a difference after just a couple of days, but for the best results, we recommend 2 weeks of treatment. This involves wearing your trays for around 6 hours per day and you can choose when to wear them.

After treatment, you can expect your teeth to look noticeably whiter and the results should last for some time. You can also have top-up treatment to give your teeth a little boost further down the line if you wish to.

Is teeth whitening safe?

If you read the news, you may have noticed a lot of stories about teeth whitening of late. The truth is that whitening is a very safe and effective procedure when carried out under the supervision of a trained dentist. Dentists have expertise in treating patients and they also use carefully selected whitening products. There is a very low risk of increased sensitivity, but otherwise you shouldn’t notice any difference, apart from the whiteness of your teeth! If you have concerns about the risks, don’t hesitate to ask your dentist. They will be happy to answer any questions and put your mind at ease.

Enlighten tooth whitening provides patients at Leeds dentists with sparkling, youthful smiles

Tuesday, May 31st, 2011

Stained teeth can be a real drag and affect your social performance negatively. What if there was a way to effectively get of the stains on the teeth and, more than that, actually restore your teeth to a shade of brilliant white that you didn’t even think was possible without somehow getting new teeth? This is now possible thanks to the incredible tooth whitening method known as Enlighten tooth whitening.
There are plenty of tooth whitening procedures available either under the supervision of your dentist or at home in your own time. Some people prefer to be supervised by their expert dentist but for many others, time is at a premium and they would prefer to whiten their teeth when it is convenient for them and without having to visit the dental surgery itself.
The beauty of Enlighten tooth whitening is that is combines the best of both worlds, so to speak. Some of the kits for teeth whitening that you can buy in the supermarket or from an online retailer are not quite as effective as they could be because the whitening trays which you fill with gel and wear on your teeth over a given time period, are ‘one size fits all’ and the gel does not the required coverage of all of your teeth.
With the Enlighten treatment, your dentist will construct the trays for you so that they are a snug fit. You can then take them home and wear them and the gel every night for a fortnight while you sleep. After a follow up appointment with your Leeds dentist which usually takes about forty minutes, your teeth will be restored to an incredible shade of white.

Enlighten tooth whitening in central Leeds

Wednesday, December 22nd, 2010

Even if we are flying around like ‘mad things’ in central Leeds, we all take time out to get the basic dental treatment we require to maintain a healthy mouth, right? But over time, the general look of our teeth can start to fade through staining, and sometimes, we just cannot find the time for extra curricular dental treatments such as whitening, which seems a shame, considering a bright smile can give us extra zest and confidence in what we do. Wouldn’t it be great if the tooth fairy could come and clean our teeth while we sleep? Well, he can! And his name is Enlighten tooth whitening! This new treatment promises to bring your teeth up to speed whatever their colour or age- while you sleep! All you have to do is get the dentist to take impressions of your mouth which are then sent of to a lab that will manufacture two liquid-tight trays. On their return, the treatment can begin. Just before bed, you fill the trays with the bleaching agent, pop them into the mouth and go to sleep. You do this for two weeks, making sure that you clean your teeth with whitening toothpaste and try to avoid staining foods and drinks and smoking. Once the two weeks are up, the dentist will carry out a quick deep bleaching session which ‘cures, the treatment. Even though permanent, you may need the odd top-up, depending on what you subject your mouth to. So, what price this unobtrusive little piece of nocturnal magic? Just leave around £500 under your pillow one night!

Leeds dentists offer amazing Enlighten tooth whitening procedure

Wednesday, November 17th, 2010

Having a brilliant smile is an important part of feeling self-confident and assured. Tooth whitening procedures have long been available as a solution to those who have dull or stained teeth. Sometimes illness, lapses in oral hygiene or our diet and lifestyle can cause teeth to loose their natural whiteness or become stained. Even with correct brushing and flossing, teeth will loose their colour over time, just like our hair does. Enlighten represents a leap forward in home-applied tooth widening procedures.

Recently imported from the United States where it has become extremely popular, Enlighten tooth whitening ensures that even the dullest or most stained teeth can be restored to the shade known as B1, the whitest possible tone of tooth colour. This is achieved by the use of special whitening trays which allow the whitening gel to remain in contact with the teeth without the interference and contamination of saliva, such is the tight fit.

Your dentist will take a mould of your teeth, from which your personalised whitening trays will be produced. Over the course of the nest fourteen nights the trays will be worn to allow the gel to work on your teeth. The main treatment is completed by a forty minute session with your dentist. The makers of Enlighten recommend that treatment can be maximised if subsequently the trays are worn for one night out of forty to enhance the effects and ensure longevity.

Discolouration of teeth or the fading of their natural sparkle is likely to come to us all, especially with increasing age. But ask your Leeds dentist today about Enlighten and achieve a brilliant, white smile that will enhance your confidence
