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!
