There are many reasons to choose to have a teeth whitening treatment from a Leeds dentist. The most obvious and probably most popular,is to make yourself look more attractive and boost self-esteem. Having stained or discoloured teeth can ruin the appearance of your smile and make you look much older than you actually are. This is because teeth tend to change colour naturally over time, becoming less white. So the whiter your teeth, the younger you appear to be, within natural limitations of course.
Restoring the teeth to their more natural, healthier colour therefore can give you a massive confidence boost and make you feel much more comfortable with your smile. Most people could probably benefit from teeth whitening, even for just a subtle improvement.
Other people opt for teeth whitening treatments because they think it can help them in their professional lives. Looking younger can definitely be an advantage in the modern business world, especially if you are dealing with clients on a daily basis. Having a healthy and confident smile can be a great advantage in the workplace and could even help you to get that promotion you have been after.
Some medications and medical treatments can cause the teeth to lose their natural colour. When patients are through with treatment or have stopped taking medication they may wish to have their teeth restored to disguise the effects.
Perhaps the most important reason why people have teeth whitening treatments is because the procedure is safe, affordable and effective. Porcelain veneers or even more extreme cosmetic surgery can cost thousands of pounds but teeth whitening starts for less than a hundred. Many people don’t have thousands of pounds to spare on their teeth but can make a real cosmetic difference for only a fraction of that cost.
